E17 backgrounds can be much more than just a static picture. They can contain all kinds of animations and effects. Here you can find some animated background EDJ files for usage in e17. The easiest way to use these EDJ backgrounds is to copy them to ~/.e/e/backgrounds and then use the wallpaper configuration dialog to select the background.

	Title: The Awakening Version: 0.1 Author: Daniel Kasak Last Updated: Tue, 12 December 2006 License: 2-clause BSD Comment: This background features photos from 'The Awakening' event. It has a very nice animation, but in fact it doesn't run well on lower cpu's (takes about 90-100% of the cpu). So you can run it perfectly as a desklock background - or you get a better cpu. ;)

Title: Savrien Version: 0.1 Author: Justin 'Surtsey' Krueger Last Updated: Sat, 4 November 2006 License: 3-clause BSD/GPL (more information can be found in the edje file) Comment: A continuation to Avrien - essentially the same with some added texture and optimization. The speed is reduced so it consumes less cycles - but it's got a directive in the edc file so if you have capable hardware feel free to crank it up and drool. Vice versa for calculators.

Some of the original luminous advertisings at the surrounding buildings were replaced with chaotic signs as a tribute to our local Chaos Computer Club Dresden. It features a Blinkenlights animation and a flashing 'e', and last but not least it reminds of the upcoming 23th Chaos Communication Congress with the apple-shaped logo by Antenne.

	Title: Avrien Version: 0.1 Author: Justin 'Surtsey' Krueger Last Updated: Mon, 21 August 2006 License: 3-clause BSD Comment: Fades between 4 images at 5 minute intervals. You have to stare at this for a while to get the full effect, but it rocks !!

	Title: Paddleballs Version: 0.1 Author: Sthithaprajna 'iamsthitha' Garapaty Last Updated: Mon, 7 August 2006 License: Creative Commons 2.5 Comment: Something like 'breakout'. Works very nice as a screenlock background.

	Title: matrix-RAD Version: 0.0.1 Author: David 'onefang' Seikel Last Updated: Mon, 6 February 2006 License: 3-clause BSD Comment: Very colourful, and it slowly morphs over a long period of time. Sorry about it being such a CPU hog, I'll try to fix that later.
And I mean a really slow morph. For those in a hurry, there is a screen shot from later in the sequence, plus a sneak preview of the matching theme at the emu modules page on edevelop.org.
