OMG! Ubuntu posted a guide about setting up an Android-inspired live Galaxy wallpaper on your desktop



Inspired by Android’s neat ‘live wallpapers’ – in particular the Galaxy Live Wallpaper – a user named ‘ilap’ set about creating something similar for Ubuntu 10.10.

Making use of the Compiz plugin framework, ilap has created something really quite stunning – and this is in spite of him admitting that he lacked experience in OpenGL and Compiz plugin programming before starting the project.
