[10:19] mornin Folks [10:19] G'day to ya Alz! [10:20] is this another dead ubuntu channel? [10:21] actually, this is usually a fairly active channel - just not tonight, I guess [10:21] i was wondering where i might get a leaflet ? [10:22] a leaflet explaining Ubuntu? [10:22] in the Examples folder there is a Kubuntu 'leaflet' and i wanted an Ubuntu version to print off so i could put my extra ubuntu discs i ordered in a library [10:24] hmmmm...... [10:24] livingdaylight, looks like a cool leaflet - don't think there's an Ubuntu version yet [10:25] Madpilot: if i was a bit of a gimp mage i coult just replace the k with the u but that would be beyond my gimp skills repertoire [10:26] why put a kubuntu leaflet and not the ubuntu version when that has to be more popular version [10:26] well, there are other differences between Kubuntu & Ubuntu aside from the one consonant ;) [10:26] livingdaylight, because someone made the Kubuntu one, and there was no Ubuntu one [10:27] let me see: as far as i recall its a basic intro to linux and ubuntu [10:28] most of that would be a straight cut-n-paste to produce a Ubuntu version [10:29] livingdaylight, if you want to help produce an Ubuntu version of that, that would be cool === livingdaylight [n=conrad-l@82-45-204-76.cable.ubr03.camd.blueyonder.co.uk] has left #ubuntu-marketing [] === livingdaylight [n=conrad-l@82-45-204-76.cable.ubr03.camd.blueyonder.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu-marketing [10:35] Madpilot: sorry, got disconnected [10:36] np. did you see my last comment, about helping to produce an Ubuntu version of that pamphlet? [10:36] sure i'd like to make an Ubuntu version, i think it would be nice. But like i said i am not a Gimp Mage [10:36] it goes beyond my reportoire of gimp skills [10:37] which are basically reducing an image to an acceptable Avatar size :D [10:37] actually, Inkscape would be better for that type of project. It handles text far better than the GIMP [10:37] ok! [10:38] well, it would be a very steep learning-curve for me [10:38] but you sound like somone who could knock it out in 5 minutes [10:39] :D [10:40] if you write the text and email it to me, I could have it prettied up in Inkscape in an hour or so, I think ;) [10:41] woah! ok, but the text is just a matter of replacing kubuntu with ubuntu pretty much isn't it? [10:42] most of it is [10:43] the stuff at the top of the righthand column would have to be re-written [10:45] the paragraph of what Kubuntu includes? [10:46] yes, aguess ubuntu doesn't include Konqueror or Kontact [10:46] no [10:46] ;) [10:46] Evolution for email, Nautilus for file management, Firefox for browsing [10:47] so, just replace those three words, huh? === rjian236 [n=rjian_se@203.87.182.102] has joined #ubuntu-marketing === rjian236 is now known as rjian [10:50] not sure, have a look thru the text properly first [10:54] so, ok, descriptions for evolution, Nautilus and Firefox are differnt from those corresponding kubuntu ones. but no big deal. just a brief explanation of each application [10:54] i'd be happy to do it but gimp and inkscape are not within my repertoire [10:54] i'm looking at it from inkspace now [10:55] how would i take out a section and replace it with my own write up? [10:55] especialy teh logo ubuntu wants to be inteh same font as teh rest to remain congruent with the rest of teh leaflet === rjian[O-U-T] [n=rjian_se@203.87.182.102] has joined #ubuntu-marketing [10:58] livingdaylight, if you want to do the writing & email it to me - blurdesign@gmail.com - I'll do the design from scratch in Inkscape [10:59] Madpilot: i wouldn't paste your email in here, this channel is being logged [10:59] pfft. [10:59] Gmail has awesome spam filters :) [11:00] Madpilot: good way to test them ;) [11:00] it's not like it isn't already all over the web [11:00] Madpilot: it was just a tip [11:00] I know, but it's not something I worry about, personally. [11:01] Well, that's up to you [11:01] i can vouch for gmail's powerful spam filters [11:01] my box is full! [11:02] Madpilot: ok, i'll be in touch [11:04] http://www.warbard.ca/temp/ubuntu-pamphlet01.png [11:04] basic graphics done [11:04] wow, NICE! [11:05] i gotta learn that stuff. cant be hard right? [11:05] Inkscape is awesome, and not that hard to get into [11:05] far easier to learn than the gimp, I think [11:06] is there a good tutorial for beginners? [11:06] there are several - just a sec, I'll find the URLs [11:06] http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/ [11:07] Thank you, i've bookmarked that [11:07] that one ^^^, and check the onboard help files inside Inkscape - they're very well done, and almost all in SVG, so you can learn by rearranging the entire help file :) [11:08] and the text: is there an Ubuntu font or do you just copy and paste and then rearrange the size? [11:08] no, there's an Ubuntu font [11:08] ok, why havn't i got that in my font dropdown then? [11:08] do i need to install that extra? [11:09] i'd a thought that comes default [11:09] it's in the repos, actually. search Synaptic for ubuntu font [11:09] k [11:10] found it - ttf-ubuntu-title [11:10] Yea, now we're talking ;) [11:11] ... it [11:11] was made available by Canonical under the LGPL to make rebranding [11:11] of Ubuntu easier. [11:11] isn't that sweet? [11:12] very useful [11:17] livingdaylight, don't worry about fonts - just send me the text, I'll do the formatting on this ned [11:17] end, even [11:21] and even? [11:22] just correcting my misspelling of 'end' on the previous line [11:22] sorry :) [11:22] k === rjian271 [n=rjian_se@203.87.182.102] has joined #ubuntu-marketing === rjian271 is now known as rjian [11:30] anyway, it's 0230 and I need sleep.

[11:20] that was canonicals booth [11:20] ahhh [11:20] the large wall banner? [11:20] well then, i will strike up conversation with Canonical and let htem know that there is an interest here in Chicago for a FOSS tradeshow, and right now Red Hat and Google have expressed their interest since they are in Chicago [11:21] i didn't see the california setup..i was referring to the canonical setup [11:22] the ca setup was one banner that canonical brought with them [11:23] who would you recommend i contact at canonical to see if they would even be interested first off?
