Aesthetics are highly subjective and while recommending wallpapers on
your own website is quite fine, doing so in the context of a free
software package manager (especially directing people to non-free
platforms) is a very different thing.  I'm not even sure whether those
wallpapers would be CC licensed because Tumblr failed to load for me
when I checked, which for me is reason enough to drop the
recommendation.

Cheers
