+1 from the Docs Team for updating the default wallpaper.

Because this is so late and the docs are really frozen, we don't see a
need to update the screenshots for the new wallpaper. In fact, I delayed
finalizing screenshots until a full week and a half after scheduled Docs
Freeze, which makes things more frustrating for the translators. We are
hoping to get translated screenshots this cycle and it will be up to the
translators whether they use the oneiric or precise default wallpaper
for those.

Title:
  [UIFe] Incremental tweaks to default wallpaper for Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

Status in Ubuntu Translations:
  New
Status in “ubuntu-wallpapers” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Following on from bug #833990 for Ubuntu 11.10.

  Subtle adjustments that follow in line with the previous two releases,
  as quoted below:

  'I have made subtle changes and introduced new light refractions. We
  can continue to add light streams and re-balance with each release -
  the landscape becomes gently lighter and brighter and gains in
  complexity to reflect our drive towards 12.04 :)

  IMHO as we move towards becoming more of a 'household' platform and
  with the great changes coming with Unity (launcher/dash) general users
  will get reassurance from the familiarity of the wallpaper and will
  also identify with it as part of our personality in new screenshots.

  This time I have re-balanced rather than just adding additional light
  streams and have introduced more warmth - it's the LTS after all ;)
  Included are two versions, the difference being
  'new_wallpaper_final_full_size_noise02a.jpg' has noise added to
  counteract posterisation in the blends but it is a much larger file -
  I would of course prefer to use this one if at all possible.

  Despite the fact that these files are named
  'new_wallpaper_final_full_size02a.jpg' and
  'new_wallpaper_final_full_size_noise02a.jpg' please rename the final
  selection to 'warty-final-ubuntu.png' to be registered as the default
  wallpaper.

  See also bug #933562 (12.04 LTS community wallpapers), which should
  ideally go up in the same upload.
