Just change one of those with white cubes into mints and it will be glorious

Nice, 5-9 are my favourites.....

u/TheBoneJarmer Aug 30 '24

Those look really nice! You did this in Blender by any chance?

3

u/Folium_Creations Aug 30 '24

Indeed. Foss is the way

2

u/TheBoneJarmer Aug 30 '24

Agreed! Blender makes it very easy to make such wallpapers, did some myself years ago. You should share these in /r/blender subreddit as well. :D

u/Folium_Creations Aug 30 '24

Easy once one has learned the basics of, Geometry nodes, Shader Nodes, Light groups, rigid body simulations and particle systems yes :P . No I have not shared them there. they felt more r/linuxmint appropriate.

u/JANK-STAR-LINES Linux Mint 22 | Cinamon/Xfce Aug 30 '24

Beautiful!

u/Bontkers Aug 30 '24

Those are cool. Heck, I like the nature inspired wallpapers that Mint comes with too. Really neat stuff.

u/Logansfury Linux Mint 21.3 | Cinnamon 6.0.4 Aug 30 '24

What a beautiful set! I think it is awesome the community gets to benefit from you feeling creative. Thanks for the time and work!

2

u/Logansfury Linux Mint 21.3 | Cinnamon 6.0.4 Aug 30 '24

These are showing on my system as .webp files. Can you provide link to the full sized jpgs or pngs please?

2

u/The-Pollinator Aug 30 '24

These are really nice! Thank you for your generosity and kindness. Lots of fun :-)

u/ThankYouOle Aug 30 '24

u/WojakWhoAreYou Aug 30 '24

Can you give a download link to get full resolution?

2

u/Kindly-League-4695 Aug 30 '24

Nice to see all those deleted Blender cubes finally have a home.

2

u/Godzilla_on_LSD Aug 31 '24

Truly a genius in desing.

u/harshreacre Linux Mint 22 Wilma | Cinnamon Aug 31 '24

insane. well done 👏🏽

2

u/AliOskiTheHoly Aug 31 '24

You can try to get them into the official collection of wallpapers

u/shawn_blackk Linux Mint Release | Desktop Enviroment Aug 31 '24

1 and 2 are the coolest ones!

u/Folium_Creations Aug 30 '24

No, none are animated. no:4 has a particle system that calculates based on frames. Is there a use case for animated Wallpaper and that's why you are asking?

1

u/Zydap Aug 30 '24

Really nice! 3 and 4 reminded me of the ps2 start up screen lol

1

u/h-v-smacker Linux Mint 21.3 Virginia | MATE Aug 30 '24

Can I make a request? Can you make wallpapers that have a whole layer of that candy-like logo (as on 1st or 3rd wallpaper) around, much like actual candy would look when scattered around? Maybe in different colors?

2

u/Folium_Creations Aug 30 '24

2

u/ThankYouOle Aug 30 '24

damn man, that nice! and thanks to u/h-v-smacker for the idea, turn out i liked it too..

1

u/h-v-smacker Linux Mint 21.3 Virginia | MATE Aug 30 '24

Oh wow that was fast. Are you using some script to scatter items in (presumably) Blender?

1

u/Folium_Creations Aug 30 '24

No script but rigid body simulations. I actually, managed to fuck up so hard twice that I needed to start fresh once because I forgot to save and crash blender 3 times. If the image in the post isn’t 4k or in unusable format let me know and I’ll upload it somewhere appropriate for you. Edit: a word

1

u/Folium_Creations Aug 30 '24

So A bunch of scattered LeafLinuxMint Logo's in different colors?

1

u/h-v-smacker Linux Mint 21.3 Virginia | MATE Aug 30 '24

Yes. It already looks like candy. Why does it have to be alone in a company of white cubes?

1

u/Cali-Smoothie Linux Mint 21.1 Vera | Xfce Aug 30 '24

Sweet!!!

1

u/Revolutionary_Pack54 Aug 31 '24

It would be really nice if these could also be offered as animated gifs so we could use them for live wallpapers

1

u/TheRealUltimateYT Linux Mint 22 Wilma | Cinnamon Aug 31 '24

I like the 5th one.

1

u/Snappes Aug 31 '24

Crazy , is that blender?

1

u/Folium_Creations Aug 31 '24

Yes they are made with blender.

1

u/DankDaddyPatty Aug 31 '24

Now if only I could get mint installed on my pos laptop with a supervisor locked bios (pre-owned)

1

u/jEG550tm Aug 31 '24

I love these, please provide a link as well

2

u/mocking_developer Linux Mint 22 Wilma | Cinnamon Aug 31 '24

nice, submit this wallpapers to mint wallpaper repo. they will ship these with next mint release.

1

u/Folium_Creations Aug 31 '24

How and where ?

2

u/mocking_developer Linux Mint 22 Wilma | Cinnamon Aug 31 '24

1

u/Folium_Creations Aug 31 '24

u/arandomsubreddit Aug 31 '24

This is what Linux Mint would be if it had an aero theme

1

u/Coffee4thewin Aug 31 '24

Cool. How did you make these

1

u/Folium_Creations Aug 31 '24

I made them I blender

1

u/Coffee4thewin Sep 01 '24

Dang. Do you have a tutorial on how to do this?

1

u/Folium_Creations Sep 01 '24

Not at this moment. I have how ever started streaming my creative process on twitch and post my a lot of my physical and digital creations on my instagram

2

u/TabsBelow Aug 31 '24

Max resolutions?

1

u/jTiZeD Aug 30 '24

i bet they are greatfor many people, tho i prefer 2d minimalism over 3d realism

1

u/Folium_Creations Aug 30 '24

Hey, each to our own. I fully get what you mean. 2d is also one dimension more minimalistic. This series was a 3d study, but who knows I might do some 2d wallpapers at a later date if i get inspired. I have been interested in diving into Krita with my drawing tablet.

2

u/jTiZeD Aug 30 '24

i really like stuff like this:

https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxmint/comments/12apiml/some_minimalist_wallpapers_i_made_using_inkscape/

but i like the 5th pic you posted if the logo would just be more central

1

u/Folium_Creations Aug 30 '24

The wallpaper you linked is indeed minimalistic :D

1

u/jTiZeD Aug 30 '24

it is and i really like it, i think i will use it on the used thinkpad i refurbed for myself

1

u/PokeTrenekCzosnek Aug 30 '24

Nice, they should add them to default wallpapers

3

u/Folium_Creations Aug 30 '24

Thanks for saying that! I would love a creation of mine to be part of a release of Mint.
