You can now download the Ubuntu 20.04 LTS Focal Fossa wallpapers, and see how it would look in other flavors

This news, together with This other, has gutted an alleged official Canonical announcement in which they reveal the Ubuntu 20.04 wallpaper LTS Focal Fossa. In other releases, the company directed by Mark Shuttleworth kicked off about a month before the official landing of the operating system, but this time we have learned what these images will be like by other means, more specifically from what Martin Wimpress has published. , who is the main developer of Ubuntu MATE but also has a say in GNOME and the main flavor of Ubuntu.

For those who do not follow some official Twitter accounts, this will all be a surprise. For those of us who follow them, too, but less. It has been in the famous microblogging network where Wimpress has done something unusual: to begin with, it has published a link where we can download the Ubuntu 20.04 LTS funds Focal Fossa, but it has also encouraged other flavors to upload their versions using the most basic images of "Felicity" (that's what the mascot is called) and adding a personal touch with the colors of their distro.

In link that Wimpress has published and from where you can download the "tarball" with all the funds es this. For what may happen, as they disappear in a few months, we have uploaded it and you can also download them in ZIP from here. What you will download will be the image that you see heading this article, the same one in gray tones, in both cases in different sizes and formats (JPG and PNG), and the Felicity icons, which the rest of the flavors have used to create their own Background versions. You can see it all in this series of tweets:

At the moment there have been three flavors that have joined the party. Logically, the first has been Ubuntu MATE, the system for which Wimpress is responsible, and Ubuntu Cinnamon has soon followed, which could become an official flavor in the coming months / years. The last to participate has been Xubuntu, but we do not know if it will be followed later by some more flavor.

The official release of Ubuntu 20.04 LTS Focal Fossa is scheduled for April 23. As we have mentioned, we do not know if there will be a special moment for the presentation of the fund by Canonical, but in the coming weeks it will be already available in the Daily Build of the operating system. Are you already using it? What are you waiting for to put Felicity on your desk?
