WHY ART GALLERIES ARE BAD

1. Most art galleries are mostly rooms with things hanging on walls. That's a lot of wasted space!

2. You spend a lot of time in rooms already. If you go to an art gallery, you are spending energy you need in rooms where you don't need to be. That leaves you less energy to live your life in the important rooms.

3. People shouldn't be spending their lives on art when they could be doing important things like writing programs, and you shouldn't encourage them by looking at the stuff they created.

4. The further you go into an art gallery, the more rooms you have to go thru to get back to where you need to be. This makes it more difficult to get back to the rooms where you should be doing important things like writing programs.

5. Why does anyone want to create these big empty places with art on the walls anyway? There is no reason for them. We should make it more difficult for them to create the rooms and to get to them. The only people who can create rooms like that should be people who understand how to do important things like writing programs.

PS. Thanks for the new repository, and the added rooms!

hey matan.

first of all: great mod!

but:
i can't change the background of my additional desktop.
it doesn't work if i set it before i activate it with the second command you posted and even doesn't work afterwards.

so i have to workaround with setting the background of my first desktop, then activate the fifth which will set this image there too and then change the background of my first desktop back to the normal one.

but when i have to shutdown/reboot the background changes back to the image of my first screen. ;(

anything i can do!?

See in this thread: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=570811 .

Summary: you need to replace hildon-home package and use newer modified-hildon-desktop package. Even then I am not sure that the GUI method for changing background works. I use gconftool.
