I finally tested what skidoo had used previously to generate images for wallpapers: evolvotron, which is found in the debian repos.
I kind of like this one, which looks material-design-ish.

...What has struck me most, tho, is the few wallpaper options for children that are included with the distro. (not that I have any that are suitable - lol)
Few, if any distros have these, so it's not an MX specific thing.
Just a curious observation. I wonder how we solve that?
How about this? Is this suitable for children? I call this "creeping blob", haha.

@ChrisUK: I'd probably like a version of your avatar pic for a wallpaper...

Lol. After experiencing another terrifying Thanksgiving with kids here in the US, I'm convinced there is a huge need for self-hypnotic children's wallpapers.
Ones that flash up hypnotic suggestions like "no running" and "no screaming." Haha.
Son, someday all this will belong to your ex wife.

As @asqwerth mentioned above,
evolvotron can be fun to play with... here's a few I just did:
I've not bothered to add them to the MX 18 Wallpaper page... I'm guessing there's enough patterns
