The one very specific example I'm aware of is the Luis Argerich one of beach/storm/lighting which I've chosen to use initially as the default for my SL6alpha derived LiveDVD/USB distro. On it, there is a specific permissive creative commons license marked on the background itself. I'm actually unsure if it allows removing that mark (for aesthetics) and placing it in an accompanying license text file, but I did take the liberty of moving it somewhere where it isn't covered up by my gnome-panel. In general I'm guessing that RH is pretty good about segregating the stuff that isn't redistributable. I.e. I've watched the evolution across recent fedora releases that was more or less designed to make brandstripping redistributor's lives easier. Not as easy yet as 'rpm -e --nodeps redhat* ; yum -y install generic-*', but getting closer. -dmc http://cloudsession.com/dawg I think the > ones in the folders are pretty standard gnome wallpaper images. > > If you're just going to use it as a personal desktop wallpaper on > CentOS I would think that'd be o.k.; but IANAL.
