        I don't like scopes and never used them.
        I want a desktop with only my favorite picture(s).
        I'd be very happy if the background image could be a slideshow, switching every 10 or 15 minutes (for example)
        It's exactly what I have for my Desktop PC with Cinnamon. No garbage on the screen and powerful menus

                @Flohack Hello

                I'm confused but I have registered and validated my account but I don't see how to post a feature request (no "new" or "add" button on this page)

                    @Flohack Gif background ?
                    Or too energy-consuming ?

                          @Flohack Can you clarify, please?
                          We don't need background animation because they wouldn't work or because they shouldn't for other reasons?
                          Because i know gif format can or should work in Gallery even if the work isn't finished.
                          See https://gitlab.com/StefWe/gallery-app/-/jobs/424388885/artifacts/browse/build/arm-linux-gnueabihf/app/ and try

                            @domubpkm Well to have an animated background we need a worker process that is actually doing the animation. That means adding new stuff to unity8, making a communication pipe to start/stop it etc. Thats more effort than just adding a png/jpg there. So for the first iteration of the feature, lets keep it static πŸ™‚

                                @Flohack : Thank you. It's done on GitHub.
                                But the code is on GitLab, no ? GitHub seems 2 years old.

                                Nice evening to all

                                  @Pulsar33 Ubuntu Touch core stuff is on Github, you only find some core Apps on Gitlab. So its fine.
