[05:08] <lotusleaf> anyone awake?
[05:39] <lotusleaf> Burgundavia: ping re: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-marketing/2006-November/001196.html
[05:40] <lotusleaf> Burgundavia: I noticed the directory and all images are now gone for the ubuntu roughcut design Madpilot made.
[05:40] <lotusleaf> Burgundavia: I made a thread about this which linked to the directory which is now missing. Should I edit my post in the UF to remove links to avoid dozens of incoming 404'ers?
[05:46] <Madpilot> hi all
[05:49] <Madpilot> Anyone know why my posted have vanished from the MT's archive?
[05:49] <Madpilot> posters, rather
[05:53] <Madpilot> nixternal, ping - you seem to have the bzr-fu - what's up w/ the archive?
[05:55] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: I just asked Burgundavia about this
[05:55] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-marketing/2006-November/001196.html
[05:55] <lotusleaf> I'm hoping they return, as it kinda makes my thread look dumb =)
[05:56] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: but Burgundavia hasn't responded to my query in this channel yet
[05:56] <Madpilot> lotusleaf, no, that issue was fixed; nixternal got them up properly into the bzr archive
[05:56] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: oh?
[05:56] <Madpilot> which means they should not have vanished, yet they have
[05:56] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: well then, where are they? :(
[05:56] <lotusleaf> hrmm..
[05:56] <lotusleaf> well I'm glad you showed up =)
[05:57] <lotusleaf> hopefully you can get this solved? :)
[05:57] <Madpilot> the system seems to have eaten them, and I know zip about bzr - except that it seems harder to use than svn :|
[05:57] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: can you buddy up with someone who does know about it to see it through?
[05:58] <lotusleaf> or is everyone asleep? :) :)
[05:58] <Madpilot> that's why I've been pining nixternal
[05:58] <lotusleaf> heh
[05:58] <Madpilot> pinging
[05:58] <Madpilot> jenda, you around?
[05:58] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: I pinged jenda earlier, no response
[05:59] <lotusleaf> about an hour ago
[05:59] <Madpilot> he's listed as away/asleep
[05:59] <lotusleaf> yup =)
[06:04] <Madpilot> lotusleaf, I just added the URL of a temp. source for the posters to that link, via ubuntu-ca.org, which I run
[06:04] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: awesome, thanks. I saw that in the mailing list but didn't know whether or not to add it
[06:04] <Madpilot> hopefully it won't crash the ubuntu-ca.org server ;)
[06:05] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: ha!
[06:05] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: want a mirror?
[06:05] <Madpilot> Burgundavia, if the server starts smoking, let us know
[06:05] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: I can up it to my site too
[06:05] <Madpilot> I want the MT's damn archive to work like it's supposed to!
[06:05] <lotusleaf> woo!
[06:05] <Madpilot> lotusleaf, go ahead, if you want.
[06:05] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: thx
[06:06] <Madpilot> tonyyarusso, you too, if you want to mirror it. The stuff is PD, after all
[06:06] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: have you thought about using gpg to make a detatched sig for them?
[06:07] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: or some checksums?
[06:07] <lotusleaf> sure, they're PD but it would be cool to identify the original
[06:07] <lotusleaf> ;)
[06:07] <Madpilot> lotusleaf, huh? Why? They're just images
[06:07] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: dunno, for the hell of it?
[06:29] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: http://lotusleafslinks.tuxfamily.org/obeyubuntu/
[06:29] <Madpilot> cool
[06:30] <Madpilot> going to post that to the UF thread too?
[06:30] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: yup =)
[06:30] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: test the links plz
[06:30] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: whipped up a little md5 there for my own amusement
[06:30] <Madpilot> they all work
[06:30] <lotusleaf> thanks =)
[06:39] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: thread updated :)
[07:07] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: when you get the official/original hosting location for it fixed, please update the thread so I may also update my first post in the thread. I'll still retain a mirror of it, but I'd like to get those (currently broken) links fixed, thanks
[07:07] <Madpilot> will do
[07:37] <jenda> Madpilot: it vanished?
[07:37] <jenda> might be my fault, I fiddled around with the branch.
[07:37] <Madpilot> jenda, 404 on the URLs, even the directory
[07:38] <jenda> indeed, it's not there.
[07:38] <jenda> although in my local mirror, I have the posters.
[07:40] <jenda> OK, lemme just run the cronjob, I think it should pull the posters too.
[07:42] <lotusleaf> jenda to the rescue!
[07:42] <jenda> hehe
[07:50] <jenda> Madpilot: fixed
[07:50] <jenda> it wouldda fixed itself with the next pull.
[07:51] <Madpilot> jenda, thanks - what happened?
[07:52] <jenda> I commited another revision, but it conflicted with yours...
[07:52] <jenda> ...and then there was this long battle between me and bzr...
[07:52] <lotusleaf> jenda: thanks =) I'll modify my initial post in the obey ubuntu thread
[07:52] <jenda> ...blood was running...
[07:53] <jenda> ...ssh blazing...
[07:53] <jenda> ...commands being sshouted...
[07:53] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: in addition to my mirror, do you want me to post the mirror you have or are you going to revoke that mirror since it may not be needed anymore?
[07:53] <jenda> and, your posters took a few hits. sorry :)
[07:53] <lotusleaf> lol
[07:53] <Madpilot> lotusleaf, I'll leave the ubuntu-ca.org stuff up for now
[07:54] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: do you want me to list it in my top posting or not?
[07:54] <Madpilot> jenda, "sshouted"?
[07:54] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: so ppl see it quickly at the top?
[07:54] <Madpilot> lotusleaf, no, but I'll leave it in my lower post for now
[07:54] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: roger that
[07:54] <jenda> Madpilot: yes, sshouted.
[07:55] <Madpilot> let Ubuntu provide most of the bandwidth, they've got beefier servers than Ubuntu Canada's little greybox
[07:55] <lotusleaf> =)
[07:55] <jenda> :)
[07:55] <lotusleaf> i'll leave mine up for an option
[07:55] <lotusleaf> just in case jenda's low on coffee again :P
[07:56] <lotusleaf> lol
[07:56] <jenda> :)
[07:58] <lotusleaf> that's amusing, we're on the topic of OBEY! posters, and a "milosevic" joins and parts
[07:58] <jenda> lol
[07:59] <lotusleaf> that cannot be coincidence
[08:02] <jenda> alright, morning duty's over, I'm off to actually wake up :)
[08:04] <lotusleaf> ha
[08:05] <lotusleaf> jenda: should I leave the direct links to the files in my thread posting or should I just link to the directory?
[08:05] <jenda> direct is good
[08:05] <lotusleaf> roger that, thx
[08:05] <jenda> the brighter ones will realise it's a directory worth poking about...
[08:05] <jenda> and besides I might finally have that site up soon :)
[08:05] <lotusleaf> jenda: does ubuntu forums allow inline images or are they attachments only?
[08:05] <jenda> inline
[08:06] <lotusleaf> it would be cool to have a photo inside the thread
[08:06] <jenda> i'm not totally sure how to do dat :)
[08:06] <lotusleaf> i'll link back to my site to preserve bandwidth in thumbnails
[08:06] <jenda> umm...
[08:06] <jenda> :)
[08:06] <lotusleaf> img tag?
[08:06] <jenda> could you ask in #ubuntuforums
[08:06] <jenda> that's what I'd try first
[08:06] <lotusleaf> k thx
[08:06] <jenda> (the tag)
[08:09] <lotusleaf> [IMG]  tag doesn't work
[08:09] <lotusleaf> I'm assuming it was disabled?
[08:11] <lotusleaf> no response to my inquiry in #ubuntuforums
[08:11] <lotusleaf> tried it though [IMG]  doesn't seem to work, no biggie, I just wanted to have a cool preview in the post
[08:12] <lotusleaf> without having to have an attachment
[08:12] <lotusleaf> I know there was a workaround but I've forgotten
[08:12] <lotusleaf> and I don't want to piss off any mods =)
[08:15] <lotusleaf> it allows you to use the [IMG]  tag but it doesn't do anything
[08:16] <lotusleaf> it just shows it as a link
[08:24] <lotusleaf> Okay now that's wierd, the thumbnail shows up in Epiphany but not Firefox 2.0: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=296742
[08:28] <jenda> lotusleaf: I see it FF2
[08:29] <lotusleaf> jenda: totally bizarre! something isn't configured right on my FF then =)
[08:29] <lotusleaf> jenda: oh well, at least it shows for others, and for me in other browsers, thanks :)
[08:30] <jenda> np
[08:30] <jenda> Actually, I think all you need is putting teh url... or did you put anything else? (such as dem tags?)
[08:30] <lotusleaf> jenda: I just put [img]  tags as it allows you with a simple click, but it didn't show in my FF2.0
[08:30] <jenda> I remember it once happened to me when I wanted to have the URL there, not a thumbnail, and yet...
[08:31] <jenda> hmm
[08:31] <lotusleaf> jenda: no biggie, as I said probably something fscked on my end
[08:31] <jenda> ok :)
[08:33] <roycebarber> What is the purpose of this room...?
[08:35] <Madpilot> what is the purpose of asking a question then not waiting for the answer?
[08:36] <Crankymonky> It's better than joining and immediately leaving
[08:36] <Crankymonky> That just seems foolish and makes other's discussions ugly
[08:36] <Crankymonky> (like I just did at #grub)
[08:37] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: wow, look at this: http://www.digg.com/linux_unix/OBEY_UBUNTU_Posters_print_your_own
[08:37] <lotusleaf> I guess news travels fast, eh? :)
[08:37] <Madpilot> lotusleaf, not your Digg account? Cool, either way
[08:43] <jenda> !lart elkbuntu!!!
[08:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lart elkbuntu!!! - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:43] <jenda> How long has that been in the /topic?
[08:44] <jenda> oops
[08:44] <lotusleaf> :P
[08:44] <lotusleaf> @lart jenda
[08:44] <jenda> haha :) really unintentional
[08:44] <Madpilot> http://www.ubuntu-ca.org/Ubuntu_roughcut_poster/Kubuntu_rough_thumb.png
[08:45] <Madpilot> jenda, it obviously replaced my "This is not the /topic you were looking for" /topic :)
[08:45] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: awesome! :)
[08:45] <jenda> argh :)
[08:46] <jenda> ooooh
[08:46] <jenda> nice, Madpilot :)
[08:46] <jenda> I wonder if I should print those out in the next batch :)
[08:46] <lotusleaf> jenda: yessssssssssssss (cobra commander hiss)
[08:46] <Madpilot> thanks; figured I  might as well cater to those who saddled themselves with that kool desktop ;)
[08:47] <Madpilot>  </GNOME snarkiness> ;)
[08:47] <jenda> hehe :)
[08:47] <jenda> I honestly do not like K
[08:47] <jenda> It's too 'fluffy'
[08:48] <lotusleaf> I like Gnome, but konqueror always keeps me with KDE
[08:48] <lotusleaf> nautilus ticks me off without true tabbed local browsing
[08:49] <jenda> tabbed browsing sounds neat...
[08:50] <jenda> ...but I never felt i needed it.
[08:50] <jenda> (locally)
[08:50] <jenda> that's what CLI is for :-D
[08:50] <lotusleaf> ;) true, I say "use what works for you"
[08:50] <lotusleaf> the amount of choice in *nix is astounding
[08:51] <jenda> yep o
[08:51] <lotusleaf> though I like openbox with a simple panel loaded usually
[08:51] <jenda> 
[08:51] <jenda> so many things I haven't tried :)
[08:52] <jenda> I usually stick with default unless I stumble upon a new feature I know I want, or I find out I want something and find a feature for it.
[08:53] <jenda> This way, I'm slowly approaching computer heaven :)
[08:53] <lotusleaf> I wish I could throw X Terminal windows around my room in Beryl-esque fasion
[08:53] <lotusleaf> fashion*
[08:53] <jenda> lol :)
[08:53] <jenda> just wait for holodisplays.
[08:54] <jenda> dude... beryl on a heliodisplay screen :-D
[08:54] <jenda> that would knock me out.
[08:54] <lotusleaf> max headroomize mark shuttleworth :P
[08:54] <lotusleaf> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max_Headroom_%28character%29
[08:55] <lotusleaf> that would be cool for a tutorial
[08:55] <lotusleaf> in an ubuntu install, an animated figure that reads help
[08:55] <lotusleaf> or would that be too clippy like?
[08:57] <Madpilot> AHHH! No animated "help" "characters"! Ever!
[08:57] <Madpilot> ;)
[08:58] <lotusleaf> lol
[08:58] <lotusleaf> what about a <h1x0r
[09:04] <jenda> noooo
[09:04] <jenda> save me from the giant paperclip!
[09:04] <jenda> aaa
[09:05] <lotusleaf> aw, just imagine a cute little animated tux help system
[09:06] <Madpilot> ick
[09:06] <lotusleaf> =) you know you want it
[09:06] <lotusleaf> with a little levitating RMS penguin
[09:16] <jenda> lol
[09:16] <jenda> gotta go.
[09:16] <lotusleaf> jenda: cu & thx for earlier
[09:16] <jenda> np & cu for later
[09:17] <lotusleaf> =)
[09:26] <Madpilot> http://www.ubuntu-ca.org/Ubuntu_roughcut_poster/Kubuntu-roughcut.png
[09:26] <lotusleaf> ooooh?
[09:26] <Madpilot> jenda, before you go, could you bump that ^^^ and it's SVG to repos?
[09:26] <Madpilot> also, I updated the Ubuntu-roughcut.svg slightly
[09:27] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: so you have a version 2.0? :)
[09:27] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: let me know whatever I need to mirror re: all the obey stuff
[09:27] <Madpilot> pretty much. I guess I should update the readme too
[09:28] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: an awesome job again ;)
[09:31] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: when you're ready, I'll make a seperate directory /obeykubuntu/ for the kubuntu ones
[09:32] <Madpilot> sure. Just updating the readme
[09:32] <lotusleaf> awesome
[09:33] <Madpilot> readme.txt updated
[09:33] <lotusleaf> r0x0r
[09:33] <Madpilot> on the ubuntu.ca server
[09:34] <lotusleaf> paste all links here plz?
[09:34] <Madpilot> http://www.ubuntu-ca.org/Ubuntu_roughcut_poster/Ubuntu_roughcut_readme.txt
[09:34] <lotusleaf> wait
[09:34] <lotusleaf> why not make a seperate one for the kubuntu?
[09:34] <Madpilot> http://www.ubuntu-ca.org/Ubuntu_roughcut_poster/Kubuntu-roughcut.svg
[09:34] <lotusleaf> seperate readme*
[09:35] <lotusleaf> so it coincides with the filenames
[09:35] <Madpilot>  <shrug> because there's no seperate info in the readme, really
[09:35] <lotusleaf> k, I'm just being anal anyway ;)
[09:35] <lotusleaf> plz continue w/ c/p
[09:37] <Madpilot> http://www.ubuntu-ca.org/Ubuntu_roughcut_poster/Kubuntu-roughcut.png   http://www.ubuntu-ca.org/Ubuntu_roughcut_poster/Ubuntu-roughcut.svg
[09:37] <Madpilot> new Ubuntu poster SVG ^^^, the Ubuntu PNG didn't get updated
[09:37] <Madpilot> the svg changes were in the XML & invisible stuff, that's all
[09:38] <lotusleaf> thx, k, did you want me to replace the svg on my mirror for ubuntu obey?
[09:38] <Madpilot> yes
[09:38] <lotusleaf> or just make it v.2.0
[09:38] <lotusleaf> k
[09:38] <Madpilot> new one is slightly smaller in filesize, but no actual visible changes
[09:38] <lotusleaf> k thx
[09:39] <lotusleaf> it'll be a few, but I'll eventually have it all mashed together and update the forum thread with info ;)
[09:42] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: gonna work on an xubuntu one or edubuntu one next? :P
[09:42] <Madpilot> not tonight.
[09:42] <lotusleaf> haha
[09:42] <Madpilot> might do the 'posse' one next, just for laughs
[09:42] <lotusleaf> how long did you spend on the kubuntu one?
[09:43] <lotusleaf> haha
[09:43] <lotusleaf> yeah, that would be cool
[09:52] <Madpilot> longest part of the kubuntu one was tracing over the Kubuntu logo w/ Inkscapes pen tool - it's a more complex set of shapes than the Ubuntu one
[09:53] <lotusleaf> I bet
[09:53] <lotusleaf> ok lemmie grab them and slap together another directory =)
[09:53] <lotusleaf> same readme file in both directories I assume
[11:05] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: ok, posters are up with better looking mirror page: http://lotusleafslinks.tuxfamily.org/obeyubuntu/
[11:06] <lotusleaf> plz test links and report any errors, thx
[11:06] <Madpilot> all working - great looking webpage
[11:07] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: yup, got it from the DIY section ;)
[11:07] <lotusleaf> k time to update that thread! :)
[11:16] <Madpilot> before I crash for the night, for the heck of it: http://www.ubuntu-ca.org/Ubuntu_roughcut_poster/SABDFL_posse_thumb.png
[11:16] <lotusleaf> one sec
[11:17] <lotusleaf> omg! lol
[11:17] <lotusleaf> fantastic
[11:18] <lotusleaf> can I throw that up too at the bottom? :)
[11:18] <lotusleaf> in a small pic?
[11:18] <lotusleaf> coming soon or something?
[11:18] <lotusleaf> pretty plz with sugar on top?
[11:19] <Madpilot> sure
[11:19] <lotusleaf> awesome thx! :)
[11:28] <lotusleaf> Madpilot: updated
[11:29] <Madpilot> heh. cool.
[11:29] <lotusleaf> =)
[11:29] <lotusleaf> nice work dude!
[11:34] <Madpilot> g'night
[12:00] <lotusleaf> hmm
[12:00] <lotusleaf> even though you're gone madpilot, i'll msg you this in memo but in case you read logs
[12:01] <lotusleaf> I dunno if the posse thing would work because the andre the giant related posse thing is most likely trademarked or copyrighted or something
[12:01] <lotusleaf> but the wikipedia page lists other parodys
[12:01] <lotusleaf> so I'm sure that would fall under parody in that regard
[02:22] <jenda> Why do i always miss Madpilot...
[04:14] <lophyte> omg LOL
[04:14] <lophyte> that posse poster is awesome
[06:34] <rexbron> Burgwork: I read you message about a Campain in a box, that sounds really good. Might there be different versions? Like one for an interested individual and another for a LoCo team?
[06:48] <Burgwork> rexbron: absolutely
[09:32] <nixternal> what branding issues were raised concerning the ubuntu artwork by us?
[10:59] <lotusleaf> 21 diggs so far for http://digg.com/linux_unix/OBEY_UBUNTU_Posters_print_your_own
[11:02] <lotusleaf> elkbuntu: :)
[11:02] <lotusleaf> 22!
[11:02] <elkbuntu> hehe
[11:02] <elkbuntu> busted. damn :
[11:02] <lotusleaf> I hope it makes front page
