I left this with no answer on purpose. I did not wanted to add further noise to 
this thread. 
I did not like the wallpaper initially but I do not subscribe to the title of 
the thread.

FWIW I think that Michael's answer was thoughtful and interesting to read.
By decomposing the reasons into the different layers I have associated the 
subject to 
deconstructionism.

At the same time there was a clear divide in the different opinions (likes or 
dislikes) 
regarding the different backgrounds: some more abstract like the F32 while 
others take an 
approach based on realism/naturalism or even other that follow modernism.

At the same time I also liked to hear some of reasoning behind the reasons for 
the 
wallpaper. IMHO it is shame that at least a short abstract it is not available 
here.

On the other hand one of reasons the reactions were in two very different 
fields, there was 
one more involved that defended the decision to go with this wallpaper based on 
a series 
of rational arguments. In the other field there was a more instinctive reaction 
of dislike.

That was the reason of my failed attempt to light the situation by referring 
to: 

"""
Abstract art can also make people uneasy because they don't automatically know 
what the 
art is "about" just by a cursory glance. Or they assume that because it doesn't 
look like 
anything, then it is not "about" anything.

I seems that I failed to convey that in the previous message. It was my fault.
