Get back old GNOME Wallpaper
After Upgrading to GNOME 43, I noticed that my Wallpaper from the Default Ones GNOME gives, was missing instead a few new ones were added. How do I get them back it was rotating triangles getting smaller and turning from green to blue.

Re: Get back old GNOME Wallpaper
I was not able to find it but that made me think more outside the box and go onto the GNOME gitlab, and found it on gnome-backgrounds. Can I upload these to AUR as gnome-legacy-wallpapers, so others don't go through pain like me. Also, I didn't realise that someUser, gave the link to that, while writing this.

Re: Get back old GNOME Wallpaper
You might have in your pacman cache an older version of the gnome-backgrounds package.
For instance, on my system I have /var/cache/pacman/pkg/gnome-backgrounds-41.0-1-any.pkg.tar.zst
You can extract the contents of that package and find the old backgrounds.
