First you need to create a directory in your home directory, lets call it
Wallpapers
$ mkdir ~/Wallpapers
$ cd Wallpapers
Now you need to connect to gnome.org ftp servers
$ ftp ftp.gnome.org
Next you will be asked to enter a username and password. "anonymous" will be
your username and just press enter when prompted for the password.
Now lets navigate to the wallpapers on their servers
> cd /pub/GNOME/teams/art.gnome.org/backgrounds
You will also need to turn prompting off, if you want to download each
single file
> prompt off
Now lets download all 1280*1024 resolution wallpapers (assuming thats your
resolution)
> mget *1280x1024.jpg
