If this doesn't win I WILL nuke KDE headkuarters

The O is a bit to little round but overall very good. I hope for more such masterpieces in the competition

[-] jlow@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

It's not visible for me (Infinity) +__+ Jist a tiny [obj].

[-] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 year ago

Yeah for me neither on Jerboa anymore.

It was just very bad hand-drawn KNOME text

I'm on the web browser and even I can't see it lol

I've never wished I was good at digital art so badly

No better time to learn then, and if it's still not great, look at the Ulster county "I Voted" sticker winner

Trust me man, you'll be suprised at how good you get and how quickly

[-] Kirbo@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Same. This even comes at the perfect time because I'm looking into getting a framework laptop :/

@glibg10b @kde exactly this I was going to write, especially for such a great prize tho 🥺

[-] frippa@lemmy.ml 12 points 1 year ago

Although those are not digital art, maybe you would like to have some quite nice pictures of nature regardless competiton?
I cen relicense for you and send uncompressed png or even raw.

Unfortunately haven't used photo stacking technique, but still like it.

https://photos.itmodulo.eu/portfolio/4/ - this one I like the most, 4717x2724

https://photos.itmodulo.eu/portfolio/ - or you may choose what you like.

Thank you KDE for supporting FOSS ❤️

Wow! Those photos are really nice!

[-] SigHunter@feddit.de 6 points 1 year ago

Kde has many good wallpapers, I especially like the ones with triangles, like altai and the one with ice

[-] franzcoz@feddit.cl 1 points 1 year ago

Yes! I loved every single one of them, and thoe ones you mentioned came from contests similar to this one, I liked them a lot too. And I think rhe new wallpapers should be an evolution of that art style, or have something that evoques them.

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social there's no better time to learn some art than now, I guess

I don't remember who made this concept art for a scrapped change for Minecraft, but I kinda want you guys to make something with a similar art style, just maybe a bit less... blocky, I guess.

I'm pretty sure a version of Kubuntu used a wallpaper similar to this, bring those back, please.

Contest is over, can unpin this
