Can I use a community wallpaper from Lubuntu 15.04 in 14.04

Question

Re the wallpaper competition for Lubuntu 15.04 in The Lubuntu Blog, can I download one in Lubuntu 14.04/

Answer 1

Actually just install the ubuntu wallpapers

sudo apt-get install ubuntu-wallpapers-version-of-ubuntu-here

Then symlink it into Lubuntu Wallpapers directory

sudo ln -s /usr/share/backgrounds /usr/share/lubuntu/wallpapers/community-wallpapers

Now you should see a community-wallpapers directory when choosing images.

:)

Answer 2

I don't see why not. You'll need sudo to put the image into /usr/share/lubuntu/wallpapers. But that's about it. Then you should see the new wallpaper as a choice when you next open Customize Look and Feel in Menu > Preferences.
