|---|---|---|
| troy_s | sup kwwii? | 12:48 |
| kwwii | had to fix a friends windows computer | 12:48 |
| kwwii | ie turn it off, unplug it, turn it back on | 12:48 |
| kwwii | thanks be to god that worked | 12:48 |
| troy_s | lol | 12:56 |
| troy_s | anything new happening with you kwwii? | 12:58 |
| kwwii | troy_s: not too much, been working on the usplash pretty much all day | 12:59 |
| kwwii | that and lots of emails :-) | 12:59 |
| kwwii | troy_s: you? | 12:59 |
| troy_s | yeah there are a few of those. | 12:59 |
| troy_s | not as much as I would have liked to. i need to get some scrapbook shit together for this film project. | 01:00 |
| troy_s | alas, my head is pounding. | 01:00 |
| troy_s | have you been chatting with sab? | 01:02 |
| kwwii | been ping-ponging each other with emails | 01:07 |
| troy_s | super fun | 01:07 |

| kwwii | actually, until now the colaboration has been very working very well | 01:08 |
| troy_s | until now? | 01:08 |
| troy_s | lol | 01:08 |
| troy_s | collaboration... sure. | 01:08 |
| troy_s | well hopefully it will go ok for you... | 01:09 |
| troy_s | i can't imagine otherwise unless you try to really hit some distinctive elements out. | 01:10 |
| === PseudoPlacebo [n=Placebo@user-0ceveav.cable.mindspring.com] has joined #ubuntu-artwork | ||
| kwwii | well, with the time schedule for feisty doing something radically new is out of the question anyway | 01:13 |
| kwwii | and doing radically new things is not probably going to be done by one person anyway, lest it go astray | 01:14 |
| troy_s | kwwii Well yes. The point being is that the 6 month cycle isn't exactly conducive to a longer term level of design anyways. | 01:58 |
| troy_s | I wouldn't even say radical is a question -- just getting everything into a suitable top drawer sort of presentation would take longer than a 6month cycle. | 01:59 |
| troy_s | Right now, the underlying issues are handicapping that element anyways. | 01:59 |
| kwwii | right on both counts | 02:08 |
| kwwii | and to think that I did a release every 3 months at suse | 02:09 |
| kwwii | it's like being expected to fart artwork | 02:09 |
| === Viper550 [n=Viper550@d57-121-167.home.cgocable.net] has joined #ubuntu-artwork | ||
| troy_s | kwwii well that would really cripple the bloody work. | 02:39 |
| troy_s | kwwii I think that in order to really have a chance, we need to be developing the next while twiddling the now enough to keep sab happy. | 02:39 |
| troy_s | That said, the 'next' would also need to be approved by him, which again, given that he has had completely free reign, seems to be | 02:40 |
| troy_s | a problem to try and actually develop any sort of distinct identity. | 02:40 |

| kwwii | no wiki stuff, only packages | 03:11 |
| kwwii | and only the usplash and a wallpaper until onw | 03:11 |

| nysosym | hi there :) | 08:42 |
| kwwii | moin | 08:43 |
| kwwii | w00t! the usplash is now final :-) | 08:43 |
| nysosym | have u seen my new icon for update notifier kwwii ? :) | 08:43 |
| nysosym | Yes? Can is see them? :) | 08:44 |
| kwwii | nysosym: it is in the process of being uploaded | 08:44 |
| kwwii | nysosym: hrm, I guess I missed that - really liked the one lapo made | 08:45 |
| nysosym | ok, but i can't use feisty, madwifi doesn't work and i can't see the new version :-/ | 08:45 |
| nysosym | kwwii: sure i like lapos although very much, but i think these icons doesn't match with the human look | 08:46 |
| kwwii | nysosym: yeah, they need a bit of gloss and so | 08:47 |
| kwwii | but the metaphor itsel is very nice | 08:47 |
| kwwii | did you post a version to the mailing list? | 08:47 |
| kwwii | if so, I cannot find it | 08:47 |
| nysosym | damn, anytime i send new mails with my new adress and these aren't in this list | 08:47 |
| nysosym | mom | 08:48 |
| nysosym | its out :) | 08:49 |
| kwwii | nysosym: probably need to change the list subscription to point to the new address | 08:49 |
| nysosym | do u have a new mail? | 08:49 |
| kwwii | yepp | 08:50 |
| kwwii | here is a few ideas | 08:50 |
| nysosym | good :) | 08:50 |
| kwwii | the white has very little contrast against the orange | 08:50 |
| kwwii | and I think that orange is more along the lines of what we need than red | 08:50 |
| kwwii | the gloss on the icon should probably be curved to match the gloss on other icons (like the folder, for instance) | 08:51 |
| nysosym | well, i have used the orange from the human folders ^^ | 08:51 |
| nysosym | the gloss is although from the folders ^^ | 08:51 |
| kwwii | you would probably need to add a slight line around the white arrow | 08:51 |
| kwwii | yeah, the gloss itself is ok, but it should probably have a curved lower edge | 08:51 |
| nysosym | well, good points thx :) | 08:52 |
| nysosym | i will do my best :) | 08:52 |
| kwwii | no problem | 08:52 |
| kwwii | sabdfl really likes the ones that lapo sent, btw...not sure how much time I would stick into making other versions :-) | 08:52 |
| kwwii | not that I want to stop you, just thought you should know | 08:53 |
| === kwwii muss zum Steuerberater, bbl | ||
| nysosym | no problem, i didn't have a problem with this, i can't use my icon for mayself for instance ^^ | 08:54 |
| kwwii | cool | 08:54 |
| nysosym | can`t =can ^^ | 08:58 |
| kwwii | yeah, I figured that out ;-) | 08:58 |
| === EmxBA [n=emx@ubuntu/member/emxba] has joined #ubuntu-artwork | ||
| nysosym | hehe ;) | 09:02 |
| nysosym | kwwii: the gloss more to the bottom of this icon? | 09:09 |
| kwwii | nysosym: not necessarily...just add a curve to it | 09:09 |
| kwwii | gotta run...be back later | 09:10 |
| nysosym | thx, have a nice day :) | 09:10 |

| troy_s | wholly overcomplicated 24 pixel icons. | 05:46 |
| troy_s | kwwii re the update lapo icon -- humanize it if sabdfl is going to go with it. otherwise it is yet one more step down the road to frankenstein. | 05:49 |

| nysosym | hi Seveas | 10:06 |
| kwwii | howdy Seveas | 10:08 |
| kwwii | Seveas: thinking about including a decent set of aspect ratios in the usplash | 10:11 |
| kwwii | Seveas: any ideas on that front? | 10:11 |
| kwwii | Seveas: oh, and it looks like we are going to be able to use 16 or 24bit graphics | 10:11 |
| Seveas | kwwii, -ETIME, I planned on doing that for feisty but some hell in my private life prevented that | 10:11 |
| Seveas | 16/24bit: not in the near future | 10:12 |
| kwwii | Seveas: from what mjg59 and tfheen say it should be doable (we'll still have the 256 as backup) | 10:14 |
| Seveas | kwwii, good to hear, they know infinitelymore than me about that | 10:15 |
| kwwii | Seveas: it would certainly make it easier to make pics for it | 10:16 |
| kwwii | Seveas: but in any case, I want to include a few aspect ratios and I thought maybe you have an idea which ones would be good | 10:16 |
| kwwii | and which sizes I should make | 10:16 |
| kwwii | Seveas: the new stuff is pure svg (and already works with 8bit) | 10:16 |
| kwwii | so the pics are not a problem | 10:17 |
| kwwii | Seveas: but I do not want to include too much as it only takes up space on the CDs | 10:17 |

| nysosym | kwwii: hi, please make a 1680x1050 version of usplash! :))) | 10:39 |
| nysosym | here is my favorite list 800x600, 1024x768, 1280x1024, 1280x800, 1680x1050, 1680x1200 | 10:42 |
| nysosym | that's the most used resolutions :) | 10:42 |
| nysosym | there is all in 4:3, 4:5, 16:10, 16:9 | 10:50 |
| nysosym | gn8 @ all :) | 10:53 |
| msikma | 16:9? That's very uncommonly used by monitors, isn't it? | 11:06 |
| msikma | All wide screens I've ever used or seen were 16:10. | 11:06 |
| kwwii | yeah, 16:10 is probably a better ratio | 11:17 |
| PingunZ | mine is 16:10 | 11:28 |
| === PingunZ feels hip | ||
| troy_s | 16:9 is standard HD. | 11:58 |
| === darkmatter [n=darkmatt@unaffiliated/darkmatter] has joined #ubuntu-artwork | ||
| msikma | troy_s: yes, for primarily televisions | 12:01 |
| msikma | I have never seen a 16:9 computer monitor | 12:02 |
| msikma | I guess you could support those that hook up Ubuntu on an external HD television but it seems that there's very limited space on the CD. | 12:02 |
| troy_s | msikma: Not really an issue if SVG is included on the cd | 12:06 |
| troy_s | seems to make the most logical sense. | 12:06 |
| msikma | You'll still need to tell it to downscale properly and proportionally, and in that case you might as well use a large PNG | 12:08 |
