8 Arch Linux Inspired Wallpapers! // CC0 and 5120x2880

Greetings!

If you're anything like me, then you use Arch Linux on a large 2K or 4K monitor, or just seek the highest quality in every aspect of your personal computing experience, after all, that's why we use Arch, right?

Inspired by Arch's monolithic adoration for all things clean, simple and beautiful, I decided to create a small collection of wallpapers with the following principles:

• Quality over Quantity (All images have a native resolution of at least 5120x2880)

• As Shareable As Possible (All images were created using stock images or graphics under the Creative Commons CC0 https://creativecommons.org/choose/zero/ license)

• Modifiable (The "Full Size" version includes the .SVG or .PSD for your convenience in editing)

Without further ado, here they are!

Imgur Links:

• Mesh 1 // https://i.imgur.com/0FvMo4h.png

• Mesh 2 // https://i.imgur.com/U4wteHQ.png

• Television // https://i.imgur.com/IwPvX8Z.jpg

• Circuit Board // https://i.imgur.com/P8b5U3W.png

• Split 1 // https://i.imgur.com/R6K8Rk7.png

• Split 2 // https://i.imgur.com/PhJ5EnM.png

• Terminal // https://i.imgur.com/RwjhWbr.png
Word of warning: the .svg of this file contains a ridiculous amount of text. 8GB of RAM minimum for editing this. (Inkscape crashed multiple times for me.)

• Ice // https://i.imgur.com/a1hRFqx.jpg

You can download the entire collection in a .tar.gz format here:

Full Size // https://mega.nz/#!unQ2BIZD!6OOeagsQidZG … aelVo0-I5w
^^^ Only this one includes .SVG and .PSD! ^^^

1440p // https://mega.nz/#!LvJgCIJR!x5FLJSHji5P3 … O3_1J7vJlo

1080p // https://mega.nz/#!WqQFxA5b!SYUDck5gbn8j … uAroGr2JSM

If you do decide to edit and/or share these images, I humbly request that you keep them in the public domain, as the creators of the stock imagery used in these have so graciously done.

Enjoy!

Thanks astize! The ice one is my favorite, it would have been really awesome if you were able to put the arch logo into the ice though! (not really sure how feasible that would be!)

The links to the full set tarballs above appear to be broken.

I can only dream about such monitors (ROFL)
Split, Television and Circuit are the winners for me! a colorful split sounds nice, i might try some editing..

Since the Mega link is down, does anyone have a working link to the tarball with the SVGs?
