[01:57] <lapo> hi
[06:42] <jak08> does anybody know about how long it takes a background to be approved?
[06:43] <klepas> on art.ubuntu.com?
[06:44] <jak08> yes
[06:44] <klepas> auc has somewhat fallen to disuse
[06:44] <klepas> because of some of the cms problems
[06:45] <klepas> art team was hoping to get some of the things fixed or maybe used a different cms but nothing has happened
[06:45] <jak08> ok
[06:45] <klepas> i have admin rights
[06:45] <klepas> i can have a look if you wish
[06:45] <jak08> ok thank you
[06:45] <klepas> but that is one of the problems, adding content is a pain
[06:45] <jak08> oh
[06:46] <klepas> we need to download the file, check it, resize it for the various sizes, manually create thumbnails and then manually upload them via sftp
[06:46] <jak08> i noticed that it might be a little complicated when i noticed that it was hand inspeced and downloaded
[06:48] <jak08> i accedentally posted mine twice because i put it in and hadn't signed in yet so i signed in and it took me to a new screen thinking it had redericted me back to the start so i did it again only to find out it had sent the first time
[06:50] <klepas> that's fine
[06:50] <jak08> ok
[06:50] <klepas> we're hoping some day to either get the problems fixed or use a different cms to handle the content
[06:50] <jak08> and if you are wondering I took the orriginal picture before i edited it
[06:50] <klepas> because frankly adding things manually is cumbersome and very time consuming when you've got ten or so submissions
[06:50] <jak08> I see
[06:51] <jak08> i can imagin
[06:52] <jak08> it was difficult to get my files uploaded so i used Google page creator because i don't think it has a maximum file stipulation, but then it went and converted my png to jpg
[06:57] <klepas> :)
[06:57] <klepas> i'll have a look at it later on
[06:57] <jak08> do you want me to give you a link to the place it is hosted?
[06:58] <jak08> just so i can get an opinion
[06:59] <jak08> http://scoutboy2008.googlepages.com/ubuntuwisemen1280x1024.jpg
[07:00] <klepas> cool
[07:00] <klepas> there are a lot of contrasting colours in that
[07:00] <klepas> i'd polish it a bit
[07:01] <klepas> :)
[07:01] <jak08> i planned on it, that was the first version of it and i got excited so i posted it up.
[07:02] <klepas> :)
[07:02] <jak08> that ball took a lot of time, it started black, after I was done with that i felt like celebrating
[01:51] <lapo> hi
