I made that @splinetool design almost 2 years ago, and it still inspires others:
"I’m a huge admirer of your design work and creative concepts. Recently, I was deeply inspired by one of your designs and adapted the idea into an interactive dynamic wallpaper for Linux..."
I got that message today, and it feels amazing!

Looking great!
The abstract geometry and muted palette make the motion feel more like a system than a one-off effect. The transition timing is doing a lot of work here—curious how it behaves when the scene is interactive.
Wow, congratulations on your latest milestone, more to come! 🚀 Seeing a concept from two years ago still inspiring interactive Linux wallpapers is amazing validation!
Getting credited for inspiring something two years after you made it must hit different. Did you reach back out to them after seeing the message, or just let it be a nice moment on its own?
of course I reached back and I gave them permissions to use the concept. Very rare these days people ask for permission even when they copy. btw here is a screenrecord of the product:

2 years later and someone builds a linux wallpaper out of it, thats a win
That message is the best kind of validation. When your work travels that far and inspires someone to build something new with it, you know you made something real.
exaclty! Quite rare these days to get proper credit for freebies.
Here is what they building btw:

Seeing a Spline experiment find a second life as an interactive Linux wallpaper two years later must feel rewarding. Sharing a remixable source makes that kind of cross-platform learning possible. Have you had a chance to see how they adapted the interaction for the desktop?

Awesome work🔥👏👏
Thanks Picto
Wow! So beautiful and professional work!👌
That's the best kind of feedback, work you made years ago still shaping what someone else builds today. Good sign the original concept had real staying power.
A design 2 years old and still motivating others is really a great work that was nicely executed, that's amazing🙌
Nothing better than morphed glass 😍
kinda gets olda after all these apple glass - but I made that before that :)
Beautiful!
Love when people get playful with glass! 🔥
goated
That’s such a rewarding feeling. When your work keeps inspiring people years later, you know you created something truly memorable
cool effect!
So inspiring! 😍
The way this Spline piece keeps inspiring new interactions is a great reminder that strong motion design has a long shelf life.
That's the best feeling ever. Such compliments always hits no matter how many times you have heared already haha. Good work mate!
Look Amazing!
Great work outlives the people who made it.
