actually, that takes you to a PDF file, in which the author points out that the coffee bean motif is in the Windows NT 4 control panel
Not sayin' this to be a jerk, Boss, but motive is the reason someone does something, however, motif is a thematic representation, like coffee bean wallpaper on your desktop . . . i'm gonna go see what this wallpaper is all about, be right back . . .
Click the "Start Button" on the lower left corner of the screen, select "Control Panel," select "Display," select the second tab, "Desktop," then, on the bottom drop-down menu, click to show the menu, and scroll to "Coffee Bean," then click that line, click "Apply," click "OK" . . . then you'll have that desktop motif, which shows coffee cups . . .

"A theme based on one of the best beverages around. The wallpaper is Starbucks latte cups floating throught space. The icons are coffee cups and beans, there are also some coffee cup cursors."
Ah well, I know Coffee Bean is in Windows NT and XP, but thanks anyway.

Perhaps
motif is more common, but
motive is no less correct. Thanks anyway.
Quote from Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary of Current English:
Quote:
motive [...] 1 that which causes sb to act [...] 2 = motif
motif n [C] theme in music for treatment and development, often one which recurs; main feature in a work of art
Apparently there's no other meaning of the word
motif to which
motive could be synonymous.

I hope the matter is settled and we can come back to the topic
Language is not simply what the books say it is--i guarantee you that well-educated English-speakers everywhere do not hold with your definition number 2, and consensus of definition is always at least as important as linguistic innovation, or a hide-bound rule . . .
At the risk of repeating myself, i repeat myself: nonsense.
Ah yes, coming back to topic, the goal of the mentally constipated everywhere . . .
That's the ticket darlin', go get some more sleep, then have a good cup of wallpaper . . . er, coffee . . .
MAYBE . . . OR IS IT THE "SAME ONE"?
coffee wallpaper
Maybe this is the "same one" mentioned elsewhere here?
