[12:11] <Viper550> kwwii? you there?
[12:13] <kwwii_> Viper550: yes, but I am sick and going to bed very soon
[12:14] <kwwii_> :-(
[12:14] <Viper550> uh oh...this is not good
[12:14] <Viper550> Well, if you want, here's that new overlay I made... http://bay01.imagebay.com/bay.php?view=7447_inversegradientoverlay.png
[12:15] <kwwii_> I will download it now and test it out tomorrow, ok?
[12:16] <Viper550> ookay, hope you're better soon!
[12:17] <kwwii_> yeah, me too
[06:00] <troy_s> Greets klepas
[06:05] <klepas> hey there troy_s
[08:36] <PingunZ> Seveas: I'm install usplash-dev I'm going to try making a theme :)
[08:36] <PingunZ> Where do I start ? Can I just modify some images ?
[08:37] <Seveas> PingunZ, I don't have time to guide you through it, read the documentation....
[08:37] <PingunZ> Okey :)
[08:38] <PingunZ> I understand ;)
[09:13] <Seveas> kwwii, ping
[09:18] <kwwii> Seveas: pong
[09:19] <Seveas> kwwii, can imagemagick extract a palette from an image and apply it to another?
[09:23] <kwwii> Seveas: I think so...try the -map and +map function of convert
[09:24] <kwwii> so you want the -map function
[09:24] <Seveas> I want +map
[09:24] <kwwii> hehe
[09:24] <Seveas> that's even better
[09:24] <kwwii> that averges the colormaps
[09:25] <kwwii> then it will look a bit betterif things are not perfect
[09:26] <Seveas> I want usplash-theme-creation to be easier
[09:26] <Seveas> what I did for ubuntu was tedious gimping
[09:28] <kwwii> hehe
[09:28] <kwwii> did you have to play with the kubuntu pics? I hope not, I tried to make them correctly
[09:29] <kwwii> but it is really easy to screw up
[09:29] <kwwii> :-)
[09:29] <Seveas> the kubuntu pics were perfect
[09:29] <kwwii> whew!
[09:33] <kwwii> btw. I made an ogg to kinda show what I thought about doing for an animation...
[09:34] <kwwii> http://bootsplash.org/kubundu1309-fjpg75.ogg  <-- it is really big and long now, but you get the idea
[09:35] <Seveas> that's technically possible
[09:35] <Seveas> but the theme .so file will be INSANELY LARGE
[09:35] <Seveas> I probably need to bring back run-length encoding
[09:35] <kwwii> it would be a matter of making it look good with as few frames as possible and then only including the pics going one way and do the return by playing them backwards
[09:36] <kwwii> it would be neat to be able to use an mng file :-)
[09:37] <kwwii> we wrote fbmngplay for the bootsplash just for that purpose
[09:51] <Seveas> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EasierUsplashThemingSpec
[09:55] <kwwii> Seveas: wow, sounds nice (and the app looks nice)...one thing though, it would be good to preserve the ability to not use the +map option if one has made the image's colormaps by hand
[09:55] <Seveas> sure
[10:00] <kwwii> one thing about the scaling...it is not always best to simply scale pics to other aspect ratios...rounded boxes or circles end up looking funny when simply scaled. I use a script to render SVGs (where the scaling doesn't happen with such primitives) - ever thought of addind a "render from svg" function?
[10:18] <Seveas> kwwii, add it as comment
[10:18] <kwwii> Seveas: will do :-)
[12:04] <exs> Is there a good RSS program, where I am able to look for keywords... so it will notify me when for example it finds "kopete" ?
