Description
What is the most multi platform and most important thing today to desktop customization and how people make an impression of us?...

Wallpapers!

There is many resolutions out there! But the best wallpapers are made for our desktop resolution. When scaled they look horrible sometimes tiled works but the most successful one is zoom. But the problem with zoom is that it cut's off the most important parts of the image. Operating systems for desktops have ignored this factor but some mobile devises like the Apple iPhone and iPod touch can use the pan and zoom and then set that as the background but why not desktops? You see not everyone is good at the GIMP and new Linux users may have used other things to cut the image to the size they want. But putting these things into Ubuntu will give it the edge it needs over the classical desktop OS. I want all OS's to have this technology sooner or later but Ubuntu could start it off!
