Description
About the theme login image: it's really a nice feature! ... but shouldn't there be an option to display a plain color background instead of being force to display an image?

@stephanedupont Thanks for your feature request.
This is definitely something I'd like to add. I should have some time over the weekend to implement this.

Yeah, makes sense. And it should be the main color then as used in the header – which is already used as fallback background color if the image can not be loaded.. @juliushaertl next to the file picker we could have a button saying »Plain color« (or just a button colored in that color with a tooltip, but not sure this is obvious enough).
juliusknorr commentedon Nov 22, 2016
My idea was to add a button with icon-delete with the tooltip "Remove background image". I have a local dev branch with this feature that still need some bug fixing. I'll try to finish this over the week.

As a workaround for others who find themselves here after searching for this topic, at least until this feature is available more conveniently in Nextcloud, what I do is generate a small (16x16) solid color image, upload that as the background image, and it is scaled to fill the background, thus providing a solid color background.

@juliushaertl is this still feasible for 12? We plan to do the freeze mid next week. Otherwise I would move this to 13.

@juliushaertl @Espina2 What do you think about the color nextcloud/nextcloud.com#434 in the header of this mockup? This would be easy to theme 🤔
juliusknorr commentedon May 1, 2017
@MorrisJobke Should be possible, I'll try to open a PR later today.
@MariusBluem Sorry, but I don't get what what you mean in combination to this issue. 🤔
MariusBluem commentedon May 1, 2017
@juliushaertl I mean this as a login background (especially the color gradient) 😉 Could be easy to change the color over Theming 😏
juliusknorr commentedon May 1, 2017
@MariusBluem I like the idea although we don't have any other gradient anywhere in the server. Any other opinions @nextcloud/designers
Espina2 commentedon May 3, 2017
@MariusBluem I like the ideia, since I think our image on the server doesn't add any good, its just visual noise. :)
MariusBluem commentedon May 3, 2017
Maybe we could also work with the 🌎-like design introduced on Nextclouds homepage (background) @Espina2
