I really, really love the idea of bringing more natural things to Fedora's artwork, and I really think the sketch above is a great start!


 * From TrondDanielsen: I think it would be cool if the pattern would change during the day to make the waves propagate outward just like the current theme changes colors during the day.

Distroting reflections
Waves do distort reflected images, gimp has nice feature to do that - Waves... Here's the first (quick) sketch showing this feature in work on simple background with hand written random text on it (two colours).
