Goodmornig, I'm Mariagrazia from Italy and to say thank you for your os I tied to realise a wallpaper for your beautifull Patito Feo This is my first attempt to create a wallpaper, I hope it will be usefull. I compose it using two different photos I took from google and I looked for photos only CC or that Google say they are available for free use. To compose the wallpaper I used Free Office 2018 Presentations and I saved the slide as png image.
It is a wallpaper of 1.3 Mb
It is 1920 x 1080 pixel. I hope it can be usefull even if the second measure isn't 1200 pixel as you suggested.
The other two wallpapers I would like to propose I'm drawing with pastels but they are at the beginning. Bye from Mariagrazia

Ciao Mariagrazia.
Have fun with MX Linux, have fun with the graphic arts and congratulations for your work.
when I have to do graphic work I use Gimp, which I know well, and inkscape which I know not so good.
But I don't have artistic skills so I make technical use of these software.
An interesting software for artistic graphic works is Krita. It is a software with which you can do excellent works especially if you have a graphics tablet.
I don't know if in this long quarantine period for covid 19, you have been at home or if you were among the categories of workers who have continued to work.
You might be among those who still can’t (unfortunately) work. If you still have free time you could try to see how Krita works: there are many video tutorials, also in Italian.

Ciao and congratulations.

P.S. Forgive me for my bad english

Sorry I was forgetting to comunicate the data about the two photos I find in Google:
The first you can find information in common wiki - https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File ... _DD_02.JPG
The other one you can find information in flikr and in common creative site: these are the 2 links -https://www.flickr.com/photos/8993119@N04/3443431808 and https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/
Have a good Saturday and a good Sunday. Bye from sister Mariagrazia from Italy

Wow, take care of yourself, srmg.

May I ask if you're a Sister as in nun, or a sister as in a female?

[Jerry3904]

As in nun (she and I have communicated previously).

Welcome sister Mariagrazia.
I am sorry for your back. I guess it's a painful problem and and not easy to solve, however, I hope that the back problem can be resolved as soon as possible.
It's good news to know that you want to try to install the Linux operating system on some sister computers.
Feel welcome and if you have difficulty with any of these computers don't be afraid to ask for help. Here there are many competent users who are committed to helping users in trouble.
If the church/convent is located in a somewhat large city you can also count on the help of the Lugs association.
http://www.ibiblio.org/mirror/www.linux.it/LUG/
They typically have a office that is opened one day a week to help users in need. Usually the user in difficulty goes to the lug office, but you can ask that someone come to the church/convent, if it is not too far.
You will also have seen that there is an Italian section of this forum,
viewforum.php?f=14
if you prefer to ask for help in Italian.

Considering that you have studied computer science, perhaps you can be the one to help others, now or in the future.
In the meantime we hope God will help the world to heal from viruses and human greed/dullness.

Thank you for all your suggestion. I wish to ask you if it is better I create a folder in pinterest for mxlinux wallpaper I wish to share and then I share the link so you can give the link to other users? Can you suggest me the better way to share the wallpapers that I'm drawing? I have an account in Pinterest but also in Flikr and as you can see in google drive. By and have a good sunday

Hi, sister Mariagrazia, we have some forum members who post small preview versions of their wallpaper in a thread dedicated to their own creations, and in their posts they also provide links to their main cloud site where the larger pictures can be viewed/downloaded by any interested members.

For instance, AKS (Auro Kumar Sahoo), wdscharff, antechdesigns.

And then, when it gets closer to the next official release of MX (usually end of the year), I will issue a invitation to all members to submit selected contributions for consideration to be part of the official wallpaper collection.
