[11:24] <klepas> anyone home?>
[12:18] <klepas> moin
[03:14] <mpathy> Hi there..
[03:19] <klepas> anyone home!?
[03:19] <klepas> please.
[03:19] <mpathy> yes
[03:20] <mpathy> whazzup? :)
[03:21] <klepas> Finally
[03:21] <klepas> Alrighty
[03:21] <klepas> Remember that list that was posted outlining what needs to be done?
[03:22] <klepas> [btw, hi, nice to meet you :) ] 
[03:22] <mpathy> hmm.. yes?
[03:22] <mpathy> you too :)
[03:22] <klepas> I'm right now going through it, whilst browisng GNOME-Look.org, ubuntuforums.org and art.ubuntu.com
[03:23] <klepas> adding possible candidates which in my opinion we could draw any items that are missing after we add everything else
[03:24] <mpathy> I found someone who have many pictures, especially those who fit this calendar "elements-themed" idea..
[03:24] <klepas> good
[03:24] <klepas> because i'm missing that the most
[03:24] <klepas> i'm trying to fulfill the children, teenager, realism and such categories
[03:24] <mpathy> he wrote on the mailing list, subject "newbie"
[03:25] <klepas> yup
[03:26] <klepas> i replied telling him we are like 24 hours away from deadline and to send as many pics our way as possible :)
[03:26] <mpathy> I said that he can upload the fitting pics on art.ubuntu.com
[03:27] <mpathy> i think he will answer soon
[03:27] <klepas> good
[03:28] <klepas> have you got admin rights to AUC as well?
[03:28] <mpathy> klepas, could you mail the current status of what to do in a while?
[03:28] <mpathy> no
[03:28] <klepas> alrighty
[03:28] <klepas> here's the deal
[03:29] <klepas> i'll finish off the basic wallpapers
[03:29] <klepas> well the URLs and names of candidates
[03:29] <klepas> mail them to you
[03:29] <klepas> and i'll check in on AUC right afterwards?
[03:34] <mpathy> what do you mean with AUC right? sorry my brain doesnt work properly right now, had a hefty week ;)
[03:35] <klepas> Well what I am doing right now is trying to find candidates to choose items to add to the art stuff
[03:35] <klepas> by going through that list of stuff needed and browsing GNOME-Look, gallery@ Ubuntuforums.org and art.ubuntu.com
[03:35] <klepas> once i've done/covered all items for the wallpapers, i'll mail you the list to continue
[03:36] <klepas> and i'll check AUC for those new submissions.
[03:36] <klepas> :)
[03:36] <mpathy> "make it so" :)
[03:36] <klepas> Can do
[03:37] <klepas> http://art.ubuntu.com/backgrounds/ubuntu/44
[03:37] <klepas> there's our Children themed wallpaper
[03:37] <klepas> and it's even an SVG
[03:37] <klepas> :D
[03:37] <mpathy> great. perfect. done! :)
[03:37] <mpathy> next :)
[03:37] <klepas> That guy has talent
[03:38] <klepas> well i am doing several for each category, so we can choose more than one or have a larger variety
[03:38] <klepas> http://art.ubuntu.com/backgrounds/ubuntu/28
[03:39] <klepas> another one for the kid category?
[03:39] <mpathy> yes, he also does such a transparent png I mentioned.. thats a great advance because of the "i dont like this brown!!" problem ;)
[03:40] <mpathy> why kids category? that is one I like too ;)
[03:41] <klepas> they fall into the cute, non-techy criteria
[03:41] <klepas> http://art.ubuntu.com/backgrounds/ubuntu/1
[03:41] <klepas> these for the 'teenager' category
[03:42] <mpathy> we shouldnt think too straight in the categories which had been mailed.. if we have a couple of different, but high-quality wallpapers its okay.. my opinion..
[03:42] <klepas> yea
[03:42] <klepas> well i've added a lot
[03:42] <klepas> so we can have a lot to pick from
[03:43] <klepas> and we need to pick within the next 10 hours
[03:43] <mpathy> okay.. whats with the calendar pics?
[03:43] <klepas> not sure there
[03:43] <klepas> i'm hoping our new guy can help us out :)
[03:44] <mpathy> yes I hope too.. I think we stick to the elements idea.. its too late too think of new concepts.. lets look what we can find..
[03:45] <klepas> yea
[03:46] <klepas> http://kwh.kernow-gb.com/~bvc/images/103.png
[03:46] <klepas> Whoa!
[03:46] <mpathy> at last resort we should additionally send all our suggestions to canonical because they have ressources to finalize them otherwise.. (stock photo)
[03:47] <klepas> agreed
[03:47] <klepas> did you check that last URL?
[03:49] <mpathy> yes.. but whats the connection to ubuntu? i think we should save that pic for the "crazy cockchafer" release *LOL*
[03:50] <klepas> lollers
[03:50] <klepas> http://ubuntuforums.org/gallery/showimage.php?i=615&c=5
[03:50] <klepas> ^ candidate for the photography stuff
[03:51] <mpathy> hmm..
[03:51] <mpathy> the idea is nice but the pic could be better.. perhaps the person who submitted it have other versions of this motive
[03:51] <klepas> yep
[03:52] <mpathy> i think the photography section has the greatest selection
[03:52] <klepas> think so?
[03:52] <mpathy> hi lllmanulll 
[03:52] <lllmanulll> Hi !
[03:52] <klepas> hard to come by so far
[03:52] <mpathy> yes.. most of the pics are photos..
[03:52] <lllmanulll> Good to see that ther's some discussion going on here :)
[03:52] <lllmanulll> s/ther/there
[03:53] <klepas> moin lllmanulll
[03:53] <mpathy> not that much as it should be a day before deadline ;)
[03:53] <klepas> mpathy, what's the max wallpapers we can ship?
[03:54] <mpathy> okay, I dont know where the other persons live.. here it is 16:00 :)
[03:54] <mpathy> klepas: dont know
[03:54] <klepas> i hope it's a lot
[03:54] <klepas> :)
[03:54] <lllmanulll> Huh, anybody knows where Andy can be found ?
[03:54] <lllmanulll> I ma de some icons for Firefox, OpenOffice, etc., and need some input from him
[03:54] <klepas> mailing list most likely
[03:55] <klepas> I don't know his other details, soz
[03:55] <lllmanulll> Well, he doesn't seem to answer (I have already posted a mail with my icons)
[03:55] <mpathy> hmm.. i think it shouldnt be too much.. but there should be an integration of the gnome-art frontend
[03:55] <klepas> mpathy, think we could ask the guy over at www.linuxart.com for a few nice shots?
[03:56] <mpathy> lllmanulll: on the mailing list? you could additionally add them to art.ubuntu.com?
[03:56] <mpathy> why not? but fast :)
[03:58] <lllmanulll> mpathy, I didn't find a way to post icons on art.ubuntu.com
[03:58] <lllmanulll> Only full icon themes
[03:58] <lllmanulll> Si there a simple way ?
[03:58] <mpathy> oh okay.. hmm dont know.. there is an forum!
[03:58] <klepas> alright - could you folks please give me the URLs of any nice GDM themes that we could add the list of candidates?
[04:01] <mpathy> klepas: hehe, http://linuxart.com/photos/03jul12-zoo,_africa/1152/0712-104718.jpg thats nice and if I retouched it, perhaps someone believes its a "breezy badger" ;)
[04:01] <klepas> hehe
[04:01] <klepas> go for it
[04:02] <mpathy> okay i'll try.. retouching is a least one thing I'm good at ;)
[04:03] <klepas> but stay close to the chatroom
[04:03] <klepas> might need you very soon
[04:03] <mpathy> klepas: But there would be 1000 mails of people who say: That is NO badger ;)
[04:03] <klepas> almost done with my part of the list :)
[04:03] <klepas> rof rof
[04:05] <klepas> moin
[04:06] <mpathy> hi newz2000 
[04:06] <newz2000> good morning (GMT -6)
[04:07] <newz2000> I'm gonna take a shower soon, but I wanted to say I'll have some time today (2 - 3 hours) to help with art deadline.
[04:07] <newz2000> So if anyone has any need, let me know. When I get back I'll see what I can do.
[04:08] <klepas> sure thing
[04:08] <newz2000> I'm good at touching up, color correctiong, optimizing and converting. Not as great at creating.
[04:09] <klepas> good :)
[04:09] <klepas> stick around
[04:09] <newz2000> I will. I'll be back soon, but I'll keep my irc client open and catch up when I get return.
[04:09] <klepas> Alrighty
[04:10] <klepas> mini announcement
[04:10] <klepas> Is there/could someone please make/show me a finished version of this:
[04:10] <klepas> http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/473/ubuntulogin019io.png
[04:10] <klepas> that is just a mockup
[04:11] <newz2000> Did you make that?
[04:11] <klepas> No
[04:11] <klepas> I can find out who's concept idea it was
[04:11] <klepas> if you like
[04:12] <klepas> but it would be grand if we could set that into life (mockup)
[04:12] <newz2000> I think the green in Session is too low contrast with the background... people who are color blind probably won't be able to read it.
[04:12] <newz2000> The red in session might have the same problem.
[04:13] <klepas> Agreed
[04:13] <klepas> blue might do it
[04:13] <klepas> such as the blue used for the "Shutdown"
[04:14] <klepas> and that green for the "restart" could be changed
[04:14] <mpathy> klepas: I can try to do, i did a few gdm themes for myself a few months ago..
[04:15] <klepas> that would be awesome
[04:15] <klepas> :-)
[04:15] <mpathy> klepas: if the one who made the mockup could send it to me in "parts" I would try!
[04:16] <klepas> one moment
[04:16] <mpathy> that mockup would fit perfectly to the new gnome theme who was suggested ("pilgrim")
[04:17] <mpathy> mpathy: perhaps I could take some "parts" of that
[04:17] <klepas> talking to yourself there...? :-P
[04:18] <klepas> Alright
[04:18] <klepas> the guy who posted the mockup for the GDM theme can be found here:
[04:18] <klepas> http://art.ubuntu.com/users/14
[04:19] <klepas> and he also posted an awesome full screen splash!
[04:19] <klepas> would it be possible to turn this into reality: http://img344.imageshack.us/my.php?image=breezysplash018vz.png
[04:21] <klepas> No takers?
[04:24] <mpathy> klepas: I dont know if its technically possible to do a fullscreen splashscreen because of the different resolutions
[04:24] <klepas> perhaps as an SVG?
[04:25] <klepas> in this case it could be possible
[04:25] <mpathy> klepas: but I would at least tell canonical about it tomorrow
[04:25] <klepas> yea
[04:25] <klepas> well it's a suggestion
[04:25] <klepas> otherwise there are plenty i'm about to scourage for on GNOME-Look
[04:25] <mpathy> klepas: dont know if svg works at splash and second, also the icons had to be scalable in that way
[04:26] <klepas> ah, good point
[04:26] <klepas> well we'll just leave it as a mockup then
[04:26] <klepas> I'm guessing Canonical has an separate art team or some sorts.
[04:26] <mpathy> klepas: I would keep the focus on the wallpapers and the humiltiy iconset, the splash and the gdm are not too bad already :)
[04:27] <klepas> Yea. You're right
[04:27] <klepas> :)
[04:27] <mpathy> klepas: dont know if there is a art team but they have people who could do this, if they think it has to be done..
[04:28] <klepas> Good.
[04:29] <mpathy> lets look what we can get done, and not to try too many things in this short time ;) this is our first time as art team, next time we will reach another level, for sure ;)
[04:33] <klepas> done
[04:33] <klepas> i'll post the list
[04:34] <klepas> mailing list
[04:38] <klepas> sent
[04:38] <klepas> :)
[04:39] <klepas> Oh, and by the way: I just went sort of stressful because we need to do something, and no one else seemed to be taking a lead. I'm happy to retire now. :)
[04:43] <newz2000> someone has to lead
[04:43] <klepas> Lucky it's holidays here then.
[04:43] <klepas> otherwise there is a bedtime curfew
[04:43] <newz2000> klepass, where are you?
[04:43] <klepas> [00:43 here] 
[04:44] <klepas> Canberra, Australia.
[04:44] <klepas> 16 years old. And staying up late. :-P
[04:46] <klepas> So. What have you been up to recently? :)
[04:46] <newz2000> good job on that list.
[04:47] <newz2000> I'm coding this week. I work for a company that makes a comercial content management system. My job for the week is to add podcasting support.
[04:47] <klepas> Kick ass.
[04:47] <newz2000> hopefully
[04:47] <klepas> What's the CMS called?
[04:48] <newz2000> www.elitecms.com
[04:48] <klepas> Thanks, btw.
[04:49] <mpathy> What I can do is only to try on IRC as long as possible and additionally try to make this gdm, but I also have little time these weeks 
[04:50] <klepas> That's alright mpathy
[04:50] <klepas> Guys, check the mailing list
[04:50] <klepas> the to-do list has just gotten through
[04:51] <klepas> I sure hope it's enough
[05:01] <mpathy> klepas: forgot the calendar images but volvoguy reminded also a few days ago about this.. I hope the new guy on the mailing list has most of the pics so we could also finish that
[05:03] <klepas> yea
[05:03] <klepas> it's v1
[05:03] <klepas> so feel free to add and make a v2 of the list
[05:03] <klepas> for those not on the mailing list or don't have access to it or whatever
[05:03] <mpathy> klepas: But its a good overview. btw, i dont like working only with a mailing list and a unstructured wiki.. but thats things we can discuss after the deadline :) :o(
[05:03] <klepas> http://wombat.nuxified.com/files/the-list-v1.txt
[05:05] <newz2000> klepas, I thick something is blocking private messages
[05:05] <klepas> :o(
[05:09] <mpathy> hey guys, I gotta go, LUG meeting this evening.. I continue my work there and perhaps get some other ubuntu-users to help me ;)
[05:10] <klepas> enjoy LUG. :o)
[05:10] <mpathy> thx..
[05:12] <mpathy> bye then
[05:15] <klepas> :)
[06:05] <klepas> alrighty guys
[06:05] <klepas> I'm out
[06:05] <klepas> nothing new has shown up on art.ubuntu.com
[06:05] <klepas> and it's 02:05 AM here
[06:10] <klepas> Good night everyone. I'll check what's been composed tomorrow
[09:19] <mpathy> hi ther
[09:20] <mpathy> I'm afraid I need at least one day to get the mockup into a working gdm 
[09:29] <ares> hello :)
[09:30] <ares> catching up on logged chats, don't mind me
[10:05] <mpathy> anybody here? ;)
[10:06] <newz2000> I am, but I'm pulling my hair out.
[10:06] <ares> I am
[10:06] <ares> I'm reading
[10:06] <newz2000> mpathy, I'm not surprised about the gdm thing. It looks like you'll pretty much have to recreate that from scratch.
[10:10] <newz2000> If you want to go through that effort of course.
[10:12] <mpathy> newz2000: if I had the single parts I could be fast.. but I think tomorrow will be a hell of a day, so..
