Hi,
now I really don't want to poleaxe you, but backgrounds textured like this make me really nervous. Literally, the first thing I did *immediately* after starting up the 4.1 image for the first time was to change the background.
Shouldn't progress be about, like, y'know, functionality, robustness, documentation (me talking), performance?
Yes. It *is* a matter of taste, partially. But you asked for opinions. I'm an engineer. GUIs I design would probably make you die of interface poisoning. :-P
Sorry,
Michael

What do folks think about each major Squeak release having slightly different appearance? It seems to have happened, perhaps "naturally," with every version since Squeak 2.9, at least. I think it's great for each release to have its own "personality".
A different background is a great place to start for keeping things fresh with new looks. Is 4.1 using a small tiled picture of some kind? Here is an alternative which I think looks kind of like rough construction paper. 12K though..
