Ubuntu 11.10 comes with a collection of 16 New Wallpapers, which all are intensely beautiful and I think the best ever introduced in Ubuntu OS. You can check them at the tour site by opening ‘View photos’ from the Welcome screen. All the backgrounds are in high-resolution and you might want to set them all as your desktop wallpaper.

A preview of some wallpapers:

PS: I noticed 16 wallpapers on the tour site but two of them aren’t included in the pack. It seems they added it to the OS at the last moment. You can find both of them below. I’ll try to add their download links soon here.
