[Pharo-project] Default Background
I dislike the white background in the default Pharo distribution. On the other hand a real wallpaper would blow up the image too much. So here is a small compromise (pattern background) that is easy to put into the update stream and looks good with most of the polymorph themes: -------------------------------------------------------------------- |colors form| colors := Array new:256 withAll: #(0.0 0.0 0.0). colors at: 1 put: #(0.329 0.329 0.329); at: 2 put: #(0.204 0.204 0.204); at: 3 put: #(0.267 0.267 0.267). form := ((ColorForm extent: 1@10 depth: 8 fromArray: #( 16777216 0 33554432 33554432 33554432 33554432 33554432 33554432 33554432 33554432) offset: 0@0) colorsFromArray: colors). World color: (InfiniteForm with: form) -------------------------------------------------------------------- Have fun and keep on talking small Bye Torsten [1] -- Jetzt kostenlos herunterladen: Internet Explorer 8 und Mozilla Firefox 3 - sicherer, schneller und einfacher! http://portal.gmx.net/de/go/chbrowser

I don't like it at all... Adrian
No. A white background with a touch of the brand is an excellent idea. Is clean yet cosistent. Nothing is better for fresh starts than a clean piece of white paper. I've found right the make smaller the logo. Now is more balanced. Please keep the default clean. For who don't like it there is always the chance to set any other background. sebastian
