Here’s a list of all Debian wallpapers from official releases with download links.
Over the years, as per tradition Debian project features a default wallpaper for each major release. Not only Debian, but almost all Linux Distributions provides a default wallpaper that represents itself, the release. The default wallpapers often feature the respective distribution logo, with tag lines while maintaining the main theme.
For example, recently we saw some stunning default wallpapers in the KDE Plasma release, while Ubuntu always maintains its default wallpaper aligns with the release mascot.
The Debian default wallpapers are chosen based on online competition. The participants submit their entries and selection happens via online voting. This post is to honor all those submissions over the years and give you a single point to download the high-resolution versions in one place.
The wallpapers are not properly arranged today on the official Debian website. Many of the wallpapers are hyperlinked to some different websites which don’t exist anymore. So here I put together the list of the default wallpapers collected from various websites and internet archives. So that you can enjoy the stunning wallpapers with the classic Debian logo.
