Awesome Terminal Backgrounds

Good terminal backgrounds for your eyeballs. The backgrounds here are free for anyone to use.

💁 Tip: even though you won’t be able to see your terminal background color with an image, set it anyway to something similar-ish to the main background image color (or the middle color if it’s a gradient). It’ll make dim text show up much better.
