Behind the design

As always, here are some insights from the designer:

Web developers typically work with many windows and applications opened at the same time, so why don’t use a wallpaper background to help remembering most used variables without opening a yet another window? Many users have alrealdy appreciated the Wordpress Help Sheet Wallpaper, so we hope that the Drupal theme developers will enjoy this one, too.

Thank you, Giovanni. We appreciate your work and your good intentions.
