Location of shots in 17.2 cinnamon wallpapers <SOLVED>

Post by cecilieaux »

The new collection of wallpapers is so incredibly good that I often find myself wondering where that wonderful natural beauty and impressive cityscapes are. Is there a list of the locations where these incredibly beautiful photos were taken?

The Credits file for each package includes links to source website (like flickr) for each photo, where you may be able to find more information. To list all the Credits files run this command:

Code: Select all

ls /usr/share/backgrounds/*/Credits
If you know what release your photo is from, just open that Credits file. You can either browse to that directory with your file manager, or for example for the Rafaela release open the file with this command:

Code: Select all

xdg-open /usr/share/backgrounds/linuxmint-rafaela/Credit
