| packaging, read the FAQ, Quick Reference and joining us on #foresight. Is art

Why Penguin is Linux logo?

,----[ Quote ]
| Penguin as logo/mascot for Linux was discussed first in early 1996 by several 
| people in the linux-kernel mailing list. The idea of such mascot came from 
| Alan Cox first. Among many other suggestions made by different people there 
| were parodies of other operating system logos, sharks or even eagles.

| Oxygen folders have changed already 3 times since I first started the
| project back to 2005. That' because ?folders? are really important,
| and together with "file sheet" and basic actions, they really define
| the look and feel of the desktop.

[KDE 4] Plasma backgrounds

,----[ Quote ]
| Whenever the topics of background wallpapers for plasma comes up, 99% of the 
| time first question is: can they be animated? Animated backgrounds would be 
| cool, but the consistency with which people ask that is pretty impressive. So 
| before I continue on let me just get that question out of the way:   
| 
| Yes, background wallpapers can be animated.
