[06:09] <volvoguy> hi kids. 
[06:10] <AndyFitz> g'day aaron 
[06:12] <volvoguy> howdy Andrew.
[06:14] <volvoguy> we need some art.ubuntu.com admins. since i still haven't totally matched names to irc handles, have any of you regulars here volunteered yet?
[06:15] <volvoguy> excellent, excellent. 
[06:15] <volvoguy> miketech, are you back among the Ubuntu-ites? :)
[06:16] <volvoguy> how about Oliver, Jorge?
[09:48] <miketech> good morning
[09:48] <miketech> ? volvoguy ?
[09:53] <volvoguy> yes sire?
[10:04] <miketech> what are ubuntu-ites? *g*
[10:05] <volvoguy> it is a culture of super intelligent computer users. :)
[10:06] <volvoguy> we were just looking for some art.ubuntu.com admins earlier and thought you might be interested becasue of your involvement with both AGO and gnome-art. 
[10:07] <miketech> ah :)
[10:07] <miketech> but no, thanks. 
[10:08] <miketech> i will try to focus on gnome-art in the future
[10:08] <volvoguy> hehe. ok. i just told Canonical that you're someone i'd trust with that authority. i'm pretty sure they won't force you to do it. :)
[10:08] <miketech> oh thanks
[10:08] <volvoguy> i'm looking forward to ubuntu and gnome-art integration. :)
[10:09] <miketech> yeah in one week my last exam is taken and then i have more time for gnome-art again
[10:09] <volvoguy> woohoo! (and good luck!)
[10:09] <miketech> thanks :)
[10:10] <miketech> but i will stay here in ubuntu-artwork channel
[10:10] <miketech> its so comfortable in here :)
[10:12] <volvoguy> yeah. nice and quiet... 
[10:12] <miketech> yeah :)
[10:13] <miketech> http://art.ubuntu.com/backgrounds/ubuntu/16
[10:13] <miketech> why is it a tar archive?
[10:13] <miketech> with an xcf file ?
[10:14] <volvoguy> it's gzipped too. presumably to reduce file size. 
[10:16] <miketech> hm
[10:17] <volvoguy> *shrug* i still haven't logged in as admin to figure stuff out yet. 
[10:17] <miketech> but then it shouldnt be described as png file.
[10:17] <miketech> and people cant use it as background 
[10:17] <miketech> they have to extract it first, change it to png and so on
[10:18] <volvoguy> well, there's two files listed. the PNG and the gzipped file is probably the layered original. i actually kinda like to see that, so less experienced users can see how people put images together .
[10:18] <volvoguy> simple though they may be.
[10:20] <miketech> ah havent seen that these are two different files
[10:20] <volvoguy> yeah. it looks like we need a bullet or something in there to designate two files. 
[10:21] <miketech> on AGO we had some new ideas for this
[10:21] <miketech> http://files.myeburg.net/art_gnome/download4.png
[10:21] <volvoguy> i'll let henrik know, as he seems to be getting along well with the other AGO people.
[10:21] <miketech> but still not sure, how we will do it next time
[10:22] <volvoguy> so in that screenie, is the big "download now" thing a tarball of all related files? 
[10:23] <volvoguy> i like the color variation where the filenames are. 
[10:24] <volvoguy> are the AGO guys pretty web standard compliant? i'm kind of a fanatic, so that was the first thing i was going to look at in the code. :)
[10:25] <miketech> the big download now button only was a mockup. we are not sure too, what it downloads *g*
[10:25] <volvoguy> hehe.
[10:26] <miketech> AGO should be web standard compliant yup
[10:26] <volvoguy> i do like the image icon and filename for the download section. i'm not sure where henrik got the weird numbering scheme we seem to be using. 
[10:28] <miketech> hehe
[10:28] <volvoguy> i need to see if henrik made a package or tarball of the AGO code so I could run it locallly. now that it's live i don't want to risk breaking anything.
[10:29] <miketech> yup right. ago also is installed on another server
[10:29] <miketech> for testing
[10:30] <volvoguy> nice. a sandbox would make me feel more at ease. 
[10:31] <volvoguy> i joined the artweb mailing list so i can help contribute back to the code that got us (finally) launched.
[10:32] <miketech> cool
[10:32] <volvoguy> i need to change that header on our site too. it kinda looks like a hack.
[10:33] <volvoguy> i think "artwork for humans" would be a better tagline. 
[10:34] <volvoguy> hey, i've spent way too much tmie sitting in this office chair today. i'm going to go crash i think. i'll catch you later miketech.
[10:36] <miketech> oki bye
