| troy_s | kwwii: Added yet another to the wiki. On a side note, if you have the 'shorterlist' finished, I can do the leg work of montaging them and such. | 11:32 |
| kwwii | troy_s: cool, I'll check it out...the list should go online by monday I guess | 11:33 |
| kwwii | I'll let you know if I need help :-) | 11:33 |
| === kwwii spent several hours yesterday cleaning out the mail queue - what fun | ||
| kwwii | it is now empty and I intend to keep it that way | 11:34 |
| kwwii | I could use some ideas on formating the page...let's talk about that when the list is ready | 11:39 |
| troy_s | kwwii: Well _someone_ had to clean that queue out. | 11:43 |
| troy_s | kwwii: I offered to volunteer for some of it, but there wasn't a reply. | 11:43 |
| kwwii | seems like the moderators that are listed are not very active anymore | 11:44 |
| kwwii | we should have a meeting sometime soon and work out that and a couple of other issues | 11:44 |
| troy_s | kwwii: At any rate, let me know. I have a boatload of stuffs to click on this weekend re the other projects, but default bits will have some time allocated assuming need. | 11:45 |
| kwwii | cool, will do | 11:45 |
| troy_s | kwwii: Did skuttlebiscuit have anything to say about any of the subs? | 11:45 |
| kwwii | yeah, I think he was amazed at how many nice pics there are on that page | 11:46 |
| troy_s | kwwii: Lol. Same as always. Edgydejavu. | 11:47 |
| kwwii | he sent me a list of his favorites...I am going to combine that with my favorites and a couple others from the comments on the wiki, etc | 11:47 |
| troy_s | kwwii: The problem was more about steering (as can be again exemplified by the almost identical state of affairs.) | 11:47 |
| troy_s | kwwii: What was he leaning towards? It could probably help to generate further things along similar lines. | 11:48 |
| kwwii | 4874 from joseph seems to be his favorite so far (that is also the one I tweaked and put with my first submissions) | 11:48 |
| troy_s | (although who knows. It seems a big enough struggle to get the same hue as the samples provided) | 11:48 |
| troy_s | Yeah figured as much. It is a bloody blows knockoff from win98 | 11:49 |
| troy_s | lol | 11:49 |
| kwwii | it is not only a problem of getting the hue right | 11:49 |
| kwwii | I found that simply taking a design and using the same colors doesn't work well | 11:49 |
| kwwii | it really depends on the individual design | 11:49 |
| kwwii | heh? I do not remember win98 having a background like that | 11:50 |
| troy_s | kwwii: Sure, unless you are developing for shuttle. His hue sense tends to be in direct relationship to something else. | 11:50 |
| kwwii | wow, mystical is pretty awesome | 11:50 |
| troy_s | kwwii: Uh... let me see if I can dig it up. | 11:50 |
| troy_s | kwwii: It was vaguely like the vista wallpaper -- but more sweepy curvey -- just like xubuntu's (well almost identical) | 11:51 |
| troy_s | kwwii: More or less a tweaked time lapsed light based bit of photography. | 11:52 |
| kwwii | luckily I am an old school mac user so nobody can say I copied windows :p | 11:52 |
| troy_s | kwwii: I found vista's ocean referential wallpaper interesting in tones though. | 11:52 |
| kwwii | those pics from joseph are all made from photographs | 11:52 |
| troy_s | kwwii: Yes... they look suspiciously like long term exposures. | 11:53 |
| kwwii | never seen that | 11:53 |
| troy_s | kwwii: Vista's default? | 11:53 |
| kwwii | never even seen vista :p | 11:53 |
| troy_s | kwwii: A few bits of ocean rays more or less (although it is restated enough that it is not quite 'underwater') | 11:53 |
| kwwii | cool, I should google for it | 11:54 |
| troy_s | http://www.piplos.org/wp-content/uploads/2007/05/windows-vista-aurora-wallpaper.jpg | 11:54 |
| troy_s | Ocean tone + rays + sweepy bloody curves. | 11:54 |
| troy_s | lol | 11:54 |
| kwwii | wow, that is the default in vista? | 11:54 |
| kwwii | I wonder why they couldn't get something better | 11:55 |
| troy_s | kwwii: Well it is pretty well executed in my mind. Albeit about 5 years overdone. | 11:55 |
| troy_s | kwwii: Leopard's new wallpaper isn't much better, but is probably symptomatic of a larger move away from that glassy shiny plastic. | 11:56 |
| kwwii | yeah | 11:56 |
| troy_s | kwwii: You have seen the silverlight promo -- its close to that xp style (which appears to be what shuts is heading for) | 11:57 |
| troy_s | http://www.bit-101.com/misc/silverlight_wallpaper.jpg | 11:57 |
| troy_s | which was close to osx's wall from <can't remember version) | 11:58 |
| troy_s | http://www.bit-101.com/misc/panther_wallpaper.jpg | 11:58 |
| kwwii | actually I do not think that mark is really pushing for something like that but it is, in his eyes, one of the better pics of those available on the wiki | 11:58 |
| troy_s | But the vista thing very clearly takes some cues from underwater photography -- which is rather interesting as it tends to translate well to the abstracts. | 11:59 |
| kwwii | I guess he did not see your versions (unless he checks the wiki often which I doubt | 11:59 |
| troy_s | http://xtreview.com/images/windows-vista-5728/vista-first-install-screen.jpg | 11:59 |
| troy_s | i doubt he would like either quite frankly. | 11:59 |
| kwwii | I like that background better than the whole desktop | 11:59 |
| troy_s | the fucking monochrome thing must die. | 12:00 |
| troy_s | it really is a deal breaker. | 12:00 |
| kwwii | the desktop pic (as compared to the installer) has very distracting lines (and the part on the lower right looks crappy, if you ask me) | 12:00 |
| === zAo^AfK [n=ask@ip565eef79.direct-adsl.nl] has joined #ubuntu-artwork | ||
| troy_s | you can't even fully execute a sense of 'awe' or anything close when you are locked into a single hue with only varying value. | 12:01 |
| troy_s | the contrast of hues is what helps to deliver that. | 12:01 |
| kwwii | I agree with that - I will talk to him about the whole direction in october | 12:01 |
| kwwii | I am trying to avoid discussing this with him per email | 12:01 |
| troy_s | the problem is you can't say things like 'In oil painting it is common to use a highlight composed of the complimentary colour' | 12:01 |
| troy_s | lol | 12:01 |
| troy_s | Anywho... I'm off for yet another night shoot's sleep. | 12:03 |
| troy_s | Hit me with email or whatever. | 12:03 |
| kwwii | sleep well | 12:04 |
| kwwii | I will | 12:04 |
| troy_s | That brown elephant texture is pretty bloody amazing. | 12:05 |
| troy_s | Although my personal vote goes for Physalis | 12:07 |
| andreasn | I thought the elephant was nice as well | 12:36 |
| andreasn | although picking a default wallpaper is hell, so I'm staying out of this discussion :) | 12:38 |

| titanix88 | hey nothlit | 08:04 |
| titanix88 | anyone there? | 08:06 |
| nothlit | titanix88: heyas | 08:20 |
| === nothlit looks for the blend :P | ||
| titanix88 | nothlit : i upload it in the attachments! | 08:28 |
| titanix88 | gutsy incoming wiki... | 08:29 |
| nothlit | ooh its there now :D | 08:32 |
| titanix88 | nothlit what abt the second one? | 08:33 |
| nothlit | titanix88: thats an interesting backdrop | 08:34 |
| nothlit | titanix88: you may want to go with more interesting placement, or angles | 08:34 |
| nothlit | also fiddle with the lighting, and play with the thickness and bevel of the logo a bit so its not standard | 08:35 |
| === alex-weej [n=alex@cpc2-darl3-0-0-cust237.midd.cable.ntl.com] has joined #ubuntu-artwork | ||
| nothlit | and get rid of the plastic look =p | 08:35 |
| titanix88 | download the 2nd .blend and find what i didn't do there . but in the end i some how could not like a perspective. | 08:36 |
| titanix88 | it is beveled. 3d. the second layer has a particle generated logo which i did not use. | 08:38 |
| titanix88 | maybe u can configure it for me. | 08:38 |
| titanix88 | only creative was the background i say:( | 08:40 |
| nothlit | titanix88: import the svg, and once you convert it to a mesh, extrude the faces gradually or however you want to do it | 08:42 |
| nothlit | you can join it all together for easier editing | 08:43 |
| nothlit | and then just vertex paint it or assign vertices materials | 08:43 |
| nothlit | titanix88: yeah creative use of bumpmapping :) | 08:44 |
| titanix88 | i do not have time anymore as i have to go back to my hoestel tommorrow. :( | 08:44 |
| titanix88 | nothlit:anyone will say it's a plain 2d logo. but it is not.;) | 08:48 |
| nothlit | titanix88: you could also create an interesting form and then assign it as the bevel object for your representative logo curves | 08:52 |
| nothlit | titanix88: lol :) | 08:52 |
| titanix88 | one interesting exp: i tried to engrave it one a cube and then boolean took 2hours.lol | 08:55 |
| nothlit | yeah blender booleans are supposed to suck | 08:56 |
| titanix88 | why? | 08:57 |
| nothlit | underworked area of code | 08:58 |
| nothlit | there is a script though, but you could also just use a different modeler | 08:58 |
| titanix88 | i dont like the way curve to mesh looks. | 09:02 |
| titanix88 | u can never subdivide a converted mesh frm curve. it will look ugly as hell. | 09:05 |
| nothlit | titanix88: you can choose how many steps you want in the curve properties | 09:06 |
| titanix88 | i mean lot's of triangular faces makes it harder to control | 09:09 |
| nothlit | oh lol | 09:11 |
| titanix88 | nothlit: btw u wanna improve it? | 09:12 |
| nothlit | nah i have a few ideas i'm fiddling with | 09:12 |
