Stormtrooper Icon set is a mix of Papirus and Fluent icon theme which I have heavily edited with Inkscape. It’s a Black & White theme with transparent elements and depth.
Will be available for Gnome, XFCE and Budgie DE.
If I missed any Budgie icons let me know

I haven’t tried Desktop Icon NG, but I see why not. There’s a two ways you can running animated background.
uses of xwinwrap + mpv player (lightweight ways to do it)
the more heavy weight to do it, but also the easist is to use the flatpak app called Hidamari
To use xwinwrap which compatible with both Xorg/X11 and wayland:
Installation of concerning apps and libs
Installation of mpv
sudo apt install mpv
Compiling tool for Xwinwrap
sudo apt-get install git xorg-dev build-essential libx11-dev x11proto-xext-dev libxrender-dev libxext-dev
Now downloading and compiling Xwinwrap
git clone https://github.com/ujjwal96/xwinwrap.git
cd xwinwrap
make
sudo make install
make clean
Setup
To set up a script that makes a Live Wallpaper possible:
cd /usr/local/bin
sudo nano Live.sh
Insert this command, while modifying the path to the video file you want to use:
xwinwrap -fs -fdt -ni -b -nf -- mpv -wid WID --no-audio --loop "/path/to/your/videofile"
Make the script executable
sudo chmod +x Live.sh
Launch your new Live Wallpaper
To launch the Live Wallpaper automatically you need a .desktop
file in ~/.config/autostart
:
nano ~/.config/autostart/LiveWallpaper.desktop
Copy-paste this and remember to modify its path in Exec;
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Exec=sh -c "path/to/Live.sh"
Hidden=false
NoDisplay=false
X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=true
Name=Live wallpaper
