Ubuntustudio 16.04 will be officially released in April 2016. As this will be a Long Term Support version, we are especially anxious to offer an excellent experience on the desktop. Therefore, the Ubuntustudio community will host a wallpaper design contest!

The contest is open to all Digital Artists and Amateurs, especially Ubuntustudio enthusiasts and Ubuntu users! We hope to collect the coolest, most beautiful, inspiring, innovative and downright slick desktop wallpapers. Each artist may submit up to 4 pieces. The Ubuntustudio community will vote on and select 16 final Ubuntustudio Wallpapers! (See what we did there? 16? 4? Clever, eh?)

Take a look at the Ubuntu Studio desktop wallpapers over the years with the link bellow. Then; GET BUSY! Design! Paint! Edit! Compose! Draw! Adapt! Shoot! CREATE! Show us what you can do with Ubuntustudio's graphic design, video and photography tools!
