[Live-demo] blue wombat desktop background

[Cameron Shorter]

Thanks Hamish, you have some better options there.
I agree with Judit that the grayscale version of the wombat fits better 
with the background, although I think it better to keep the logo in the 
bottom right, as it is less likely to be covered by icons or application 
windows.

My preference, in order is:

1. wombat5
2. wombat3
3. wombat2

Tyler, as marketing chair, you may wish to comment on this.
