Default Background

Torsten Bergmann
I dislike the white background in the default Pharo distribution.
On the other hand a real wallpaper would blow up the image too much.

So here is a small compromise (pattern background) that is easy
to put into the update stream and looks good with most of the
polymorph themes:

--------------------------------------------------------------------
|colors form|
colors := Array new:256 withAll: #(0.0 0.0 0.0).
colors at: 1 put: #(0.329 0.329 0.329);
       at: 2 put: #(0.204 0.204 0.204);
       at: 3 put: #(0.267 0.267 0.267).
form := ((ColorForm
                        extent: 1@10
                        depth: 8
                        fromArray: #( 16777216 0 33554432 33554432 33554432 33554432 33554432 33554432 33554432 33554432)
                        offset: 0@0)
                        colorsFromArray: colors).
World color: (InfiniteForm with: form)
--------------------------------------------------------------------

Have fun and keep on talking small

Bye
Torsten

I like the idea. But this background is very dark don't you find?

No. A white background with a touch of the brand is an excellent idea. Is clean
yet cosistent.
Nothing is better for fresh starts than a clean piece of white paper.
I've found right the make smaller the logo. Now is more balanced.
Please keep the default clean.
For who don't like it there is always the chance to set any other background.
