could be done but the result be a bit ugly, because scaling it without mantaining the aspect ratio would deform everything, horizontal and vertical screen borders would became different and also the screen stand would be deformed looking quite different in different ratios (see screenshot) another problem is to have the wallpaper to fit exactly in the monitor the gass area of the icon should have a predictable name, so if another icon theme will be chosen it would break, it should have to be hardcoded to oxygen yeah, i feel really bad every time i add an element in the theme, but i really feel that would be a suboptimal solution hmm, dunno, maybe adding a new folder for single use graphics not meant to be themed? - Marco ----------------------------------------------------------- This is an automatically generated e-mail.
