Shallow Clone

If using Git, I recommend making a shallow clone of this repo to pull only the current images and not the full history. A shallow update script is included for ease of use and scheduling.

To make a simple shallow clone:

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/buckmanc/wallpapers

Or to clone only the directories you want in a shallow fashion (for example, to ignore the 3.0G mobile folder):

# shallow clone but download and checkout bupkis
git clone --filter=blob:none --no-checkout --depth 1 https://github.com/buckmanc/wallpapers

# set git to only clone these folders
git sparse-checkout set ./desktop ./terminal ./scripts

# download and checkout
git checkout main

I've added attribution where I can. Feel free to contact me or submit a pull request to add missing attribution.

Aesthetic Decisions

  • Desktop/homescreen: chill
    • Calming, spacious designs to underly busy windows and icons
  • Lockscreen: exciting
    • Anything goes
    • Better with a neat and tidy lock screen
  • Floaters
    • To be centered on the screen
    • Usually t-shirt designs
  • Terminal: elegant and subdued
    • Extremely simple, standardized designs on the opposite side from the text
