How to use this prompt
Desktop wallpapers compete with icons and windows, so restraint is the feature: "vast empty negative space" with one small glowing focal point keeps your desktop uncluttered and legible. Near-black rather than pure black (#000) is deliberate — pure black looks flat and shows compression banding, while a very dark charcoal has depth. "Subtle grain" is the trick that stops the gradient from banding into visible steps on a big monitor. Keep the accent to two analogous hues (indigo, teal) so it stays calm. Place the orb off-center, toward one side, so it doesn't sit behind your center-screen work.
Variations to try
- Warm version — 'deep maroon and amber glow'
- Off to the corner — 'the orb low in one corner' for more clear workspace
