Regarding the kde-look problem, just like DRM makes it harder to access
the desired content so does hiding the desired image file behind 10 pages
of advertisements and unrelated content. Perhaps the best solution is to
make it easy (automatic) for those authors who provide a direct link
and/or host the image file on kde-look, and if the utility detects an HTML
page or other non-image and non-compressed file then it asks the user if
he/she would like to open a browser session? Personally I'd make the
dialog a bit scary as we really have no idea what content is on the remote
site; at minimum it should ask if the user would like to browse to the
given URL (and show it).

They each seem to contain 10-20 wallpapers'
worth of details, no more.
That being said, they're XML feeds,
and we could create an additional one of our own by scraping their pages
and RSS, then add it as a new
selection in the leftmost box in the screenshot. The scraping part is
finicky but not difficult, provided
they don't change the RSS entry format.

Hi,
I still got the same opinion on this one that it the button should be
replaced by a link to kde-look.org.
Even if it seems to work at first sight, if the file is not hosted
directly on kde-look.org, it doesn't work.
Also, it would never require maintenance in the future.
I provided here a collection of 12 nature backgrounds, all coming from
kde-look.org and they all have an open source license.
They were also on my PCLinuxOS non-official TDE remaster.
These are more adapted to today's wide screens than the old ones provided
with TDE.
If someone is interested in it, they could be added to tde artwork
package.
Please note that I have resized these file to send it more easily.
Tell me what you think! Thanks!
