Arch Linux Artwork Wallpapers available as SVG?

I've just randomly found some beautiful Arch Linux wallpapers at https://sources.archlinux.org/other/art … 1.4.tar.xz

Since they are somewhat "official", is there a SVG version of them available somewhere? I need to upscale them because my display resolution is >1920x1080.

Re: Arch Linux Artwork Wallpapers available as SVG?

I've now mailed the author of this beautiful work, Thayer Williams, and he confirmed what I suspected: Venom339, the creator of the backgrounds disappeared. He also tried to contact him at like 2013 or so with the goal of making an upscaled version of the wallpapers, but even back then he was nowhere to be found.

So no unfortunately there is no SVG version available sad.

I guess you may use AI solutions for upscaling.


Experiment at-least.

Which one specifically?
Most of them look like the archlogo over a scaled base w/ a tile pattern applied.
That's kinda the common WP format of englightenment and I've a bash script that does similar stuff w/ random bases, tiles and logos.
There're also random base pattern packages on the internet and they're typically created by blurring some detail of a photo into oblivion.

Use the opportunity to get creative and intrepret/recreate one.
