In that case we should stick to that and pick a base package. I don't have
anything against Glipper, it's just that you could sum it up in a sentence ;) I
think drapes is a better choice. If I had more backgrounds I'd probably use it.
The author_ was excited to know we shipped it, imagine what would happen if we
picked it for PotM ;)

Perhaps we could have a Contributed package of the month too ;)
