Keeping real simplicity in mind I went to make this wallpaper. It was going to be an SVG completely but I'm still hitting some problems with the translucency as well as edges. I'm trying to get it refined, but, don't worry, a 1600x1200 PNG is up for grabs. Versions available include a 1600x1200 'Basse-Ubuntu' (with the Ubuntu logo lozenge and bar) as well as the plain background version.

Alright, I've added the SVG which Andy helped fixing. It looks a bit weird, do not use straight for your backgrounds. I found that when you resize it to the size you need and then export into PNG things seem to look as they should. So to recap, resize the SVG into the size you want, export into PNG and use that PNG as your wallpaper. :-)
Resize problems fixed! Was 1024x768. Both versions are now at 1600x1200. :-)

The SVG now looks a bit borked but when you export to a PNG things begin to look a lot more like they should. I don't complain - he got further than I could. :-)
I shall add the SVG for anyone who wants it later today (it's 02:40 here).
The only thing that comes to mind with rebranding this background with another distro name is that the Ubuntu art team are probably creating an art package sometime in the not too distant future (it is currently in discussion). This is one of the pieces I intend to add to that package (and having a re-brand for another distro might not be the best of ideas).
What do you think?
Cheers, and thanks for the comment.
