Default Wallpaper confusion

Does that brick pattern wallpaper still exist? Having watched my dad
hang some at home (right way up) I made a point of looking at the
orientation every time I saw some. It wasn't unusual for it to be upside
down, i.e. the shadows in the pointing were at the top of each brick.


In the same way that, once you have interpreted the veining
pattern, on the one-time ubiquitous Crystal tiles, as a bird
flexing its wings, you spot at a glance how the orientation has
been planned (or not).
