kamiccolohi06:47
SS2hello kamiccolo ;)06:49
kamiccolohm, a very quiet channel ;)06:51
SS2just come to the point what you want to say07:00
kamiccoloyes. well, I have made a wallpaper and I want to contribute it07:03
kamiccoloI have no idea if it will be relevant but it's worth to try ;)07:04
troy_sgreetings all.07:05
kamiccolohi troy_s07:05
kamiccolo@all: does anybody know, where I can upload my wallpaper or if it's still possible when it should be considered for edgy?07:27
troy_skamiccolo if you wish to try and get something done for inclusion in edgy07:28
troy_syou will need to do a little backtracking and research07:29
troy_sstart at the wiki in the topic07:29
troy_sthe edgy artwork is all subject ultimately to sabdfl's approval.  it is a tricky tightrope.07:29
kamiccolooh, the big mark himself. seems to be really important07:31
troy_skubuntu, edubuntu, and xubuntu have autonomy within reason07:31
troy_subuntu is a different creature07:31
troy_sentirely07:31
troy_sbut if you jump in now and follow the list07:32
troy_syou will at least be able to submit things on spec07:32
kamiccolowell, I should lern some wiki syntax ;)07:32
kamiccoloperhaps I also should refresh my english07:33
troy_sno.  diversity is a wonderful thing.07:33
kamiccoloin vino veritas ;) perfect moment for a bit of south african wine07:34
kamiccoloshould I create a subsite under ubuntuartwork in the wiki?07:51
kamiccoloforget it. it's described in ubuntuart ;)07:53

kamiccolofschoep: I'm very well. I'm just contributing a wallpaper ;)08:37
kamiccoloand you?08:37

=== dborg [n=daniel@e182049032.adsl.alicedsl.de] has joined #ubuntu-artwork
kamiccolohi dborg08:39
fschoepI'm back08:40
fschoepSo, creating a wallpaper eh08:40
kamiccologood. because I have a question08:40
fschoepHave you got a link for me08:40
fschoepOK, ask08:40
kamiccolowiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/OpenSource08:41
kamiccolonow the wiki page is created. how does it go on?08:41
fschoep"How does it go on?"08:41
fschoepI'm not sure if I get that question08:42
kamiccolomy englisch is not so good ;) I'm germn and out of practice08:42
kamiccologerman08:42
fschoepI see :)08:42
fschoepCan you phrase your question in German?08:43
kamiccoloof course08:43
fschoepIch spreche Deutsch08:43
kamiccolowas soll ich jetzt machen?08:43
kamiccolosehr gut08:43
fschoepAh so08:43
fschoepWell, I can understand your question now but I really don't speak German :)08:43
fschoepNext thing would be uploading the file itself08:44
fschoepYou can click the link "upload attachment..."08:44
kamiccoloit's already uploaded08:44
fschoepI see, sorry08:44
fschoepMy browser was acting funny there08:44
kamiccolomy browser too, 10 minutes ago ;)08:45
fschoepDo you have a PNG preview by chance?08:45
kamiccoloI can create one if you want08:46
fschoepPlease do :)08:46
fschoepI'm on Mac OS X and I don't have Inkscape readily available08:46
kamiccolooh. well, the preview is in work08:47
fschoepGreat08:48
kamiccoloit's done. my knowledge about the wiki syntax is very bad. how can I put it on the page?08:49
fschoepJust use another attachment:preview.png statement there08:49
kamiccolonot more?08:50
fschoepPNGs are automatically turned into images08:50
kamiccoloI begin to like the wiki ;)08:50
kamiccolois there something for a new line?08:51
fschoepThe Wiki software, MoinMoin is very nice.08:51
fschoepYes08:51
fschoepUse [[BR] ] 08:51
fschoepWhich is like a HTML tag, kind of08:51
kamiccologreat, thanks08:51
kamiccolosure if it is automatically turned into images? in the preview there's only a link08:53
fschoepIt should work yes, did you name the attachment [imagename] .png?08:53
fschoepI've been using it that way since the beginning of the universe08:54
kamiccoloI wrote [attachment:open_small.png] 08:54
fschoepThat should work, have you already uploaded the file as well?08:55
kamiccoloyes08:55
fschoepDoes the link point to the image?08:55
fschoepSo if you click the link you see the image?08:55
kamiccoloyes, the image appears08:56
fschoepWell then... I'm out of ideas :)08:56
fschoepJust leave the link and say: click here for the preview08:56
kamiccolook08:57

kamiccolohi msikma08:57
fschoepkamiccolo: I see the preview, am I correct in saying it's composed mainly of squares?08:59
kamiccolofschoep: what should I do now? who will be responsible for this part of artwork08:59
kamiccolofschoep: yes. simple but pretty08:59
fschoepkamiccolo: that'd be me08:59
kamiccoloah, very good09:00
kamiccolothe right man on line ;)09:01
fschoepYes indeed09:01
fschoepI'm afraid it doesn't readily fit into the process we've been following for the Edgy release.09:02
fschoepThere are some strict guidelines in place for submitting artwork and ideas09:02
fschoepI'm working on writing some of those for the next step as we talk09:02
kamiccoloyes, the edgy style is different. but I think, this wallpaper will be good for later versions, perhaps09:03
fschoepI see09:03
fschoepThen it would probably be a good idea to join the artwork team09:03
fschoepDo you know the ubuntu-art mailing list?09:04
fschoepYou'll probably want to subscribe there09:04
kamiccolowell, I'm still inexperienced ans I'm working as a mod and as supporter at ubuntuusers.de (and as newsposter)09:04
fschoepOther things you can try are submitting your wallpaper to a site like gnome-look.org09:05
kamiccolonot yet09:05
kamiccologood idea09:05
fschoepIf you want to expand your knowledge and graphics experience09:05
fschoepYou can probably follow a nice Inkscape guide like this one:09:05
fschoephttp://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/MANUAL/html/index.php09:06
kamiccolovery good. I like good manuals09:06
kamiccoloperhaps I can do some more artwork for the future09:07
fschoepIndeed09:08
fschoepI hope you'll join our team soon enough :)09:08
kamiccoloI also made some other wallpapers, especially for ubuntuusers.de. I always searched for a opportunity to post them09:09
fschoepI see, well I think gnome-look.org will welcome them with open arms09:09
kamiccolowhere should I join? in launchpad?09:09
fschoepSure, Launchpad and the mailing list09:09
fschoepYou already know your way around IRC so that's good09:10
kamiccolothanks to SS2, he told me about this channel ;)09:10
fschoepNice!09:11
kamiccolowell, I will see, what I can create. I think it's to late for edgy09:13
fschoepOK, you can also stick around and work on Edgy =109:14
fschoepEdgy +109:14
kamiccolofor this it's enough time. and now I know that my wallpaper is perhaps suitable for edgy +1. well, this slogan is a bit propaganda for open source. but I think that's not the worst ;)09:17
troy_sfscheop09:30
troy_sping09:30
troy_sfschoep rather09:30
fschoeptroy_s: I'm here09:30
kamiccoloso, I will get offline, too. my night ends at 4am ;)09:48
fschoepOK :)09:49
kamiccolohave a good night. I think we'll meet again soon09:49
