Superpup, love him or hate him he is Puppy!

Myself and CatDude are partly resposible for him. BarryK likes him. Many others do and don't.

Simple question, vote if you like!

(argh! something weird happened when editing, sorry Confused

. The votes will still tally up the same Cool

Can't vote, sorry Bro, maybe it should be there as an option not default

SuperPup is playful... however the bright red on the BRIGHT blue background is a bit overwhelming... can we tone down the intensity of the background a bit?

And may I asked again for the VERSION number on the desktop someplace please.

micko maybe you should post a screenshot so general users might have an Idea what your talking about, not everyone looks at the wall paper thread or downloads alpha puppy versions, Plus the default wallpaper for 4.3 is months off, I think its wayyyyyyyyyyy too soon to vote on that, maybe at RC 1 or RC 2, status, plus basically your telling Barry what to do? He usually makes his mind up on his own, But I like the little superpup guy, he's cute, I think his lefthand waistline needs fixing, looks like his lefthand side is dented, where his blue undies are, still a nice guy, If he doesn't make default, maybe he can still be kept in the wallpaper section.

The default wallpaper I have in 2.14X series, I found on the wallpaper section, it was from a wallpaper site in Russia I think , I added about 4cm more of sand on the bottom and compressed the image, maybe you can super-pup in that and see if that could be default?

Hi Minnesota usually most people don't like numbers on images, I like my images clea, but Most the time if you want a version number, usually Barry puts in in the help section like /menu/help this it what it say
'Welcome to Puppy version 4.1.6, released Jul 2009'

Superpup is great, dunno about being default though, but definitelly should be in /usr/share/backgrounds
I agree with ttuuxxx on version number thingie, also you can find out version number with # cat /etc/puppyversion Wink

I understand not to clutter the desktop... OK.. ttuuxxx you put the version in the Start menu button... that is fine with me... since I often am helping to test several version at a time.. and have several versions on different media... I don't always remember which one is up on what computer... OK...just me.. but it would be nice to have the version number where a quick glance to see it... not to have to dig in the guts to find.

Thanks.

yeah...his budgie-smugglers are a bit tight and make him look like a Porky Pup, as Keef commented ...needs to be addressed if he's to be a 'cover-pup' coz he's supposed to be trim, taut'n'terrific after all..

I like the 01micko/CatDude wallpaper though..

Very Happy

No, but give it has option. And i think, it would be a good idea to remove like lots of icon, dunno, like just leaving setup, and most important ones, and maybe a text file icon, explaining a couple of things.
