[09:58] <artnay> hey guys
[09:58] <artnay> about the new icons... did tigert anything to do with them?
[09:59] <artnay> btw, they look quite good although they don
[09:59] <artnay> t follow tango style or hig that closely
[10:02] <artnay> does anybody have any idea do the action icons inherit tango? :o
[10:02] <artnay> that would make sense
[10:03] <artnay> quiet as always :)
[10:14] <artnay> so how can we as a team help with that? is any help wanted or needed?
[10:14] <derek[] > with what?
[10:14] <artnay> while I am happy to see those, they leave a lot of questions :o
[10:15] <artnay> with the new icon set
[10:15] <derek[] > gnome?
[10:15] <artnay> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperIcons
[10:15] <artnay> I don
[10:15] <artnay> t get why those arent under /Artwokr
[10:17] <artnay> what is that icon with the text file and a progress bar in front of it?
[10:18] <artnay> good to see that universal signs (such as usb) are being used, not to mention text on cd media icons
[10:19] <artnay> I disliked the different colour approach, it doesnt tell enough
[10:19] <artnay> derek[] : what do you think of those?
[10:20] <derek[] > I agree that the use of the universal signs as the USB's is very good.
[10:20] <artnay> but it is against some rules :o
[10:21] <derek[] > which?
[10:21] <artnay> well maybe not that but at least all the "unnecessary" text is
[10:21] <artnay> HIG
[10:21] <artnay> and wiki states too that no text should be used if it is not needed
[10:22] <artnay> but I for one say that it is much more better to have an extension than lots of different colours to differ each file types
[10:23] <artnay> people should not learn that ones mp3 player is not able to play "blue and yellow" audio files
[10:24] <derek[] > I would say that if they make the colour scheme a standard, then it can be helpful
[10:24] <derek[] > but if the colour scheme keeps changing in every release, it serves no purpose
[10:26] <derek[] > Who is developing this artwork by the way?
[10:31] <artnay> my bet it is tigert
[10:31] <artnay> as mark said at LCA that the artist will come from scandinavia, and looking back at times...
[10:31] <artnay> if only the colour scheme would be identical at least in FOSS icons
[10:32] <artnay> freedesktop.org ;o
[10:32] <derek[] > I don't know who/what is tigert, mark, LCA..
[10:39] <artnay> tigert did the old gnome icon theme, mark is sabdfl (the man behind canonical and freecd etc.) and LCA was a linux conference in ausrtalia (held in january)
[10:40] <artnay> I guess freedesktop.org doesn't have a word on MIME colours
[10:41] <artnay> please prove me wrong
[06:17] <lapo> hi there
