Sweet on Mint
In anticipation of the upcoming holiday I’ve tossed together a flavorful desktopping in a variety of sizes for the Mint die-hards. As you can see I had some fun with the Mint logo mark and expanded on the color scheme used on the site and in the app.
Who knows? The Mint Chocolate look could stick—it is pretty sweet. Groan

Well, It has made it to my iBook and it really looks good. :)
No 2560*1600 love for us 30” Apple Cinema HD users? :(
Check again Phil.
Shaun, it’s awesome, but why the grunge brush for the heart? Style confusion, IMO. In addition, I have aversion with the heart green pattern as well (style inconsistency, again).
On the positive side, you just keep on rockin’ with this sweet-beat style. I really like the two curves. They just blew (me).

I think the grungy drips are unexpected given the cleanliness of everything else. But maybe it didn’t need that extra texture. To each his own.
I like it. I like it a lot.
What about 1440x960 for us Hi-Res 15” PowerBook users?
Trey, I’ll tell you the same thing I told Phil… ;)
Those are really nice, Shaun, thanks. I’ve been wondering when this sort of thing would start appearing, what with the graphic design on the site being so yummy.
1024x768 the most downloaded?
I expected better from your audience Shaun.
(admittedly, I grabbed the 1024x768 for the 12” iBook)
I think a lot of people view the 1024 first (because they assume it’s the smallest download) to see if they want to commit to downloading their own resolution.
And now it’s also on my Inspiron 600m :)
nice, the more mint the better.
It’s now decorating my 20” Cinema display, Shaun. Thanks a bunch.
Hotty Chocolatty!
I like! I grabbed the 1024 version for my 12” Powerbook.
hi shaun,
I like the desktops, but i am also interested in the download counter … how is that done?
thanks,
It’s a custom job I created to count the number of times my original music is downloaded. It uses .htaccess and PHP/MySQL to recognize, count and redirect requests. (That’s why files from my downloads or music folder end up with a
?caughttacked onto the url.)I see … thats very helpful thankyou …
fancy whipping one up for me? ha … poor joke … badly executed
very nice wallpapers
I love it!
That method of download counter could be easily integrated with the Downloads Pepper for Mint. Now that’s an idea!
Looks very nice on my HP Paviljon! Thanks! (1280x854)
Real nice
and no 1400 x 1050 for us ibm t43 users. cough cough shaun cough cough.
