wallpaper feature request
When I find a beautiful image on the web that I want to use as my desktop wallpaper, Firefox offers me several useful options (center, tile, stretch, fill, fit). That shows me that there is someone at Mozilla who really thought about this feature - it offers much more than other browsers. This is an example for why I like Firefox.
Here is one additional way to tile images - I would love to have this added as a new option. It would especially be useful for images that are too small for the desktop. Blowing them up to fill the screen would not look very good, so you can only tile them, but the regular tile option doesn't look very good either. Have you ever looked at the way real tiles in a beautiful historic building are organized? They don't just multiply the tiles, they put groups of them into larger tiles.
If you rotate/mirror the image four times, you can create a larger tile that would then add up to a much nicer overall pattern because it is symmetric. See added images (ordinary tile vs. symmetric tile). I'm sure the developer who is responsible for the wallpaper feature will not have to work for a long time to add this feature, and every user who loves images will love it.

Hi, thanks for taking the trouble to give us suggestions, but this is Mozilla Support where we try to resolve problems, so please could you post your feedback for Mozilla here.
Thank you.
The downside to using Firefox to save wallpaper is that Firefox only saves one image, and it can't be found in Display Properties > Desktop once a "desktop" image saved thru Firefox is replaced by a newer one. Add a new image and the first one is gone; not saved as when you add a new image thru the operating system. As far as wallpaper features, Firefox just carries thru what Windows offers - center, tile, stretch, fill, and fit - it adds nothing unique to Firefox.
You can do this rotate composition yourself in an image editing program.
lol - what do you think how I did the example that I posted? I made this specifically for this feature request.
It would be much nicer though if this process was automatized by a small dedicated piece of software. Doing it manually takes several minutes.
