background in Arclight
The early Arclight screenshot shown here

http://www.fecitfacta.com/Arclight/Gallery.html#12

shows a green, tendrily thing as a background for the main menu. The
background images in the recently released source:

Arclight/Backgrounds/tendrils[123].png

are chunky blue/green pixellated things. At least, they're not very
tendrily. Is this a deliberate change of art for the final release?

And, I'll go ahead and mention:

Note, also, you can easily replace the backgrounds (randomly chosen from
the Backgrounds directory) with your own custom pictures, and the clean
design means it actually looks good... It's a great theme for all the
photographers out there.

You can (but don't need to) update qtlook.txt to no longer reference
tendrils1.png. (If you don't, startup and some of the non-themed pages
may have a dark grey/black background.)
