lassegulterlmann: what the *** are you talking about?12:37
lassegul:)12:37
terlmannAnd when I upload more than 1 mb to a site , it is a little hindered12:37
terlmannwhat I mean is that my bandwidth is filtered by kinds of requests12:37
bcasanovNothlit: Not right now.  Although it's kind of confusing because responses come and go so fast.12:37

terlmannlassegul : http://img220.imageshack.us/img220/6659/droprh3.jpg << is purely my picture12:44
terlmannI just uploaded12:44
terlmannit12:44
terlmannit was originally 5 mb12:44
=== bcasanov [n=opera@user-38f165.user.msu.edu] has left #ubuntu-artwork []
terlmannso I reduced quality at great length12:44
joejaxxterlmann: lol12:45
=== bcasanov [n=opera@user-38f165.user.msu.edu] has joined #ubuntu-artwork
terlmannwell for a 5 MB jpg to go to a .5 MB jpg...12:45
terlmannquite a change12:45
lassegulterlmann: i like the colours. but im really sick of seeing obvious gimp effects.12:46
terlmannwell the image is entirely gimped12:46
terlmannI made it last fall12:46
terlmannNo source was used12:46
terlmannlassegul : my use of the effects was effective though.12:46
lassegulterlmann: im not talking about you using gimp, but youve used some "ripple" effect. and everyone who has ever used that one before know what you did.12:47
MisosakiDitto about the colours12:47
terlmannI used multiple ripple effects12:47
terlmannnot just one12:47
lassegulterlmann: so what you basicaly got here is a nice set of colours, that has a lot of potential, and then you used the ripple effect.12:48
MisosakiKind of also reminds me of a wall kwwii posted the other day, without the rippling12:48
terlmannas I said as well , the image you are viewing is 1/10 quality12:48
terlmannand if you do not like waves I can always use my handy Gaussian filter  :-P12:48
lassegulterlmann: im just saying im a little tired of the gimp effects. they dont show off your skills.12:48
=== buttercups [n=me@adsl-70-224-59-73.dsl.sbndin.ameritech.net] has left #ubuntu-artwork ["Ex-Chat"]
terlmannwell I hate Inkscape and any kind of math based art12:49
lassegulim not saying you have to use something other than gimp. Just stay clear of obvious effects. when you use them, be subtle.12:50
nothlitThats what paint work in gimp is for lol :D12:50
terlmannSo I will have something out soon but You will see plenty of gimp effects (or none , I still have my Gaussy :-P )12:50
Misosakihttp://sinecera.de/rainbow.jpg12:51
MisosakiComplements of kwwii12:51
lassegulthats the same picture!12:51

MisosakiAh12:52

terlmannI am telepathics ! everyone is copyinz ME :-D12:58
MisosakiHehe12:59
lassegulterlmann: ive got a suggestion. I like your colours. so try making a picture entirely without any effects but maybe blur. Just use layers.12:59

MisosakiHi swj01:25
coz_terlmann, sorry guy... I may be pushing for something I shouldnt have been01:26
swjdiverting the subject away from the WP for a while ;) I am wondering if any you know why the gnome icons/tango still have some blurry icons in app and system menu.  I realize you don01:26
swjignore the last part ;)01:26
swjI realize you do not actually have anything to do with the gnome icons...I'm just wondering how to fix or will it be fixed before release01:28
nothlitswj: if no one knows, you should file a bug on launchpad01:28
Misosakicoz_: He's probably just away01:28
nothlitor on g-i-t if you think its upstream01:29
Misosakiswj: Maybe because tango and gnome don't use the same size thing?01:29

terlmannI did submit a theme artnay03:20
lassegulkwwii: i saw that video on google tech you linked to this morning. it was interesting.03:20
artnaybut that's probably because of the limitations of GDM03:20
terlmannthe Avio theme , I think , i perfect03:20
artnayterlmann: link?03:20
terlmannI put it up on the wiki03:20
_MMA_kwwii: So I guess the art deadlines meant nothing? We ran into this as well. Tweaking things at the last minute to help placate the masses.03:20
terlmannat the gutsyideas page03:20
terlmannat the end03:20
kwwii_MMA_: yeah, I made those dates up03:21
_MMA_:)03:21
kwwii_MMA_: I planned a little extra time for situations like this03:21
_MMA_Ahh....03:21
kwwiibut we don't want to spread that information around03:21
lassegulit would be cool to get that GDM theme changed.03:22
_MMA_;)03:22
lasseguljust a little03:22
lasseguljust so people feel the evolution :)03:22
terlmannlassegul : just agree with me to base it on Avio03:22
terlmann:-P03:22
lassegulterlmann: i would think its enough with a variation of the current theme.03:23
kwwiilassegul: perhaps we could tweak things a bit, but I would not want to change it radically as there is little time left to fix something if we break it03:23
artnayterlmann: avio is ok. currently the user list GDM theme looks like out of place03:23
terlmannwell Avio is one with a user list03:24
terlmannI think of it as all-purpose03:24
terlmannI altered it and added the elephant pic03:24
kwwiiterlmann: we can't change it that much03:25
artnayterlmann: it should be based on the same bg as the normal GDM theme03:26
terlmannfor the next release , kwwii , please try to get some of the old , old ,OLD pics from hoary/warty considered . They are darker, which is what we are looking for , and bringing some of them back would be , like , cool... as no one has them right now.03:26
=== kwwii heads out ot pick up the kid from guitar lesson, bbiab
terlmannartnay : with Avio that is a 1 second trick03:26
artnayterlmann: true03:27
kwwiiterlmann: I do not think that reverting to something old is a good idea...the plan so far is to go with black and orange03:27
kwwiiso  something darker but different03:27
kwwiimore orange03:27

lassegulblack and orange can be very cool03:40
terlmannimho the dapper and feisty releases were just right03:40

kwwiifirst off, you have to pound the meat very thin - the thinner the better07:12

kwwiiand fry it in a 50-50 mixture of oil and butter07:12

troy_syeah that sounds about as healthy as fresh fruit.07:19
troy_si need a bikeshed filter for the forums.07:28
kwwiihehe, invent that and you might just get rich07:30
troy_sthe forums are wonderful, and the visceral responses are pretty solid.  it gets to be an issue when people pop off about theory without having a droplet of foundation.07:31
troy_sit also is a bit of a mixmash as the page turned into what appears to be 'hey this is what i can do'07:32
troy_sas opposed to following a concrete course07:32
troy_s(as expected, as the lessons learned have since been forgotten by a newer audience)07:33
kwwiiI have a theory about the length of a thread - it is proportionaly related to the amount of bikeshed07:33
troy_sThere certainly is bikeshed, but one can't just flush everything as it has turned into the defacto thread for discussion.07:34
kwwiigetting things back to a normal discussion is pretty hard though - turning a blind eye to the bikeshed is the best way but it is not easy07:40

MisosakiAs good a place as any. The digg post might not be a good idea?10:41
lasseguli dont we should do that with the meeting.10:43
Misosaki(Too public?) Who should be attending the meeting though?10:43
MisosakiBesides the artists and those who want to get involved in doing the artwork10:43
lassegulMisosaki: anyone else?10:44
lassegulMisosaki: i think we should have a grand meeting, because that will probably hinder discussion10:45
lassegul*shouldnt10:45
nothlitwell a digg post, even considering the audience can't be too harmful, the sort that will leave scathing comments aren't likely to be the ones that take the time to clear their schedule for a meeting10:45
nothlitand figure out irc etc10:45
nothlitand people can't say we haven't tried then10:45
Misosakilassegul: Guess just about anyone who has a vested interest in the artwork -- usually Ubuntu users, but not always10:46
nothlitits up to you guys though, i'll tell you the approaches i try10:46
lassegulMisosaki: I dont think anyone will be satisfied with the meeting if it ends up in being a rant fest.10:46
lassegulMisosaki: that doesnt mean i wouldnt have lots of the forum users there.10:47
Misosakinothlit: Up to you. Will try lending an extra mouse if you need a splash image to go with a post or something10:48
kwwiiI do not see the point of having too many people who are not involved in the process to attend, what could they contribute?10:49
Misosakilassegul: Yeah ... though if the meeting is long enough and we have some semblance of order if other people want to ask questions or suggest something, then it should be okay10:49
kwwiithe point is to discuss ideas for how to improve the processes, not disucuss gutsy or the current artwork10:50
Misosakikwwii: Maybe not much, but at least it's an opportunity for them to say something10:50
kwwiiand it is not going to be a time for people to discuss how they want the decision making process to be10:50
kwwiiMisosaki: no, that will do nothing10:50
lassegulMisosaki: we should include lots of people elsewhere then the meetings. the goal of the meeting must be to get a message through and discuss some visions. we should do the active inclusion elsewhere.10:50
MisosakiAh10:50
kwwiithere is no point in discussing this stuff now10:51
kwwiithe point of the meeting is to discuss exactly the topics that I posted (and the additional one)10:51
Misosakikwwii: Okay. I trust you'll make it clear at the start of the meeting what it will be (and not be) about.10:51
kwwiiif too many people interupt they will just get kicked from the channel10:52
kwwiiMisosaki: the mail and wiki page with the topics should make that clear10:52
nothlitkwwii: this is what i'm sending to the newletter https://people.fluxbuntu.org/~nothlit/communitytheme/hardy/newslettersubmission.txt10:52
Misosakikwwii: It should, but some people go off topic anyway because they figured they can talk out and be heard.10:53
nothliti'm sure some sort of order will be kept?10:53
kwwiiwhich newsletter?10:55
kwwiiMisosaki: they will be told that they are off-topic and if they do not stop they will be removed from the channel10:55
kwwiinothlit: I do not like the wording of that text10:56
kwwiiwhy talk about the discontent10:56
Misosakikwwii: nods Okay.10:56
kwwiiI do not see the need for that text10:56
nothlitkwwii: do you want to reword it? or just take out that sentence10:56
kwwiipost the topics if you want with a notice that we are having a meeting but I do not see the point of posting text like that anywhere10:56
kwwiiand it is not about choosing rules and guidelines for contributors but about talking about how best to communicate the rules and guidelines10:57
kwwiiI will clearly explain the decision making process10:58
kwwiithe rules will also be clearly stated, although in another meeting once we know how best to communicate them10:58
kwwiiand it is not ever going to be a discussion of deciding the artwork direction10:59
kwwiiI will clearly give a direction10:59
kwwiifor anything that is going to be default that is the way that things will work10:59
kwwiipeople have already started to post artwork on the wiki for hardy which are, to put it simply, useless11:00
kwwiithey might be nice additions to some community package but they are not in line with what we want as default11:01
kwwiiput it this way: we know what we want we only need help getting there11:02
nothlitkwwii: ok, i've updated the link11:02
nothlitThanks for clearing things up btw11:03
nothlitor, for correcting my misinterpretation11:03
kwwiinothlit: sounds much better now11:04
lassegul"this meeting is not for voicing your discontent, and is about making things better." should maybe leaves too much open for interpretation?11:04

dmccallkwii: I'm thinking that Compiz's settings fall very closely in line with the rest of the theming, and so default configurations for Desktop Effects should be suggested by the same group that does the rest of the theme ;)11:43
dmccallFor example, the default settings, at the moment, for Compiz in Gutsy are rather different from Ubuntu's regular appearance, and not entirely consistent with themselves11:44
