Madpilotupgrading to Gutsy got me a blue Gnome splashscreen instead of an Ubuntu one08:51

nysosymhi there11:30
nysosymwhat do you think about?11:30

lassegulnysosym: hi!11:51
nysosymhi lassegul :)11:51
lassegulnysosym: is this an icon?11:51
nysosymlassegul: yes for OSX 10.511:51
lassegulnysosym: its nice, but the shape on the bubble is a little wierd, and how does this scale? how does it look in 30x30 or such ?11:53
lasseguls/on/of/11:53
nysosymmom11:56
lassegul:P11:56
nysosymthat's the look of 16x1611:57
nysosymhttp://img85.imageshack.us/img85/2044/ichatspaceminiaa6.png11:57
nysosymi think it's ok11:59
lassegulIt might be a little hard to see the white shape in the middle for the 16x16 version. How about cleaning away all other objects than the blue bubble and the white rectangle for the 16x16 version?12:01
lasseguland perhaps it would be better with  the arrow of the bubble being just a bit thicker(bigger)?12:02
lassegulnysosym: what do you think?12:07
nysosymlassegul: should be possible :D12:20
mhbhmm, isn't this channel for ubuntu anymore?12:28
nysosymsure, but this is also a channel with many good artist, i thought here can i get the best critic :D12:29
nysosymhow can i do ultra sharp icon also in small sizes. I have created so much icons but they look a little bit blurry in a small edition13:22
andrew_hey guys, im not a computer whiz, but i am big on open source, and have a suggestion15:43
andrew_make something that allows non tech literate people like myself to change the login background easier15:43
andrew_just put their own picture on there like a desktop background, maybe even editable login box transparency and fonts?15:44
BHSPitMonkeyandrew must not have seen the Login Window preference17:20
bersaceHi everyone20:19
bersacekwwii: sad i won't be there Nov the 2nd20:19
bersacei'll be away from internet20:19
kwwiibersace: when could you come?21:47
kwwiiI sent an email to the list asking for people's ideas21:47
kwwiiI cannot come on the 2nd either :-)21:47
kwwiibersace: I was thinking either the 1st or sometime in the next week21:47
bersacekwwii: same22:00
kwwiibersace: sounds like you are taking vacation :-)22:17
bersaceyep22:17
kwwiihehe, you lucky fool22:17
bersacekwwii: hey, that's my last student year (hopefuly)22:17
kwwiiI would easily trade being at the meeting for having vacation ;-)22:17
bersaceAnd next year is a sabbatic year, of course :P22:18
bersace:)22:18
kwwiiwhat degree are you working on?22:18
kwwiibersace: I think that the UDS stuff concerning GDM might be of more interest to you anyway22:18
bersaceah22:19
bersacegood22:19
kwwiithe meeting will be more about setting up a gallery or not, and what exactly we need in that respect22:19
bersacealso, i'm really thinking on working on wide-theme-switcher next summer, for hardy+1 (aka i*y)22:19
bersacemaybe using Google Summer of Code22:19
kwwiithat would be killer22:20
kwwiivery good idea22:20
kwwii+10 if you could get that to work for both gtk and qt :-)22:20
kwwiikde has this half broken gtk2qt engine but gnome has nothing like that22:21
bersacei may thinkg "backend/frontend", but never write a line of qt22:21
bersaceeach one has its own pride22:21
kwwiiso for gnome people it would be nice to have a way to get their apps themed even if they use qt22:21
bersace:P22:21
bersaceah22:21
kwwiiI am not sure that you would need a qt frontend22:22
bersacei though you were talking about the capplet itself22:22
bersacethe idea is to create something like MetaTheme (there is such subject in xdg)22:22
kwwiiand even so, if it simply set the theme across the boards I am sure someone would step up and write the qt front-end22:22
bersaceMetaTheme includes a gtk and a Qt theme22:22
kwwiiexactly22:22
bersaceas well as gdm, usplash, (grub?), metacity, compiz, kwin, xfwin, …22:23
bersacethe list is undefined22:23
kwwiiyeah, it would be a real effort to get themes ready22:23
bersacethe artist (team ?) can produce a theme with a variable coverage22:23
kwwiias it would probably include sounds, etc22:23
bersaceyeas !22:23
kwwiibut we could adapt the automatic theme builder to do a metatheme22:23
bersacegnome-app-install handle packages, mime-type/codecs, firefox-extension. i'm willing to add thems22:24
bersacethemes22:24
kwwiiat least then it would only be a matter of switching things in one place22:24
bersacei need a good mentor for such project22:24
bersacesomeone like dholbach22:24
bersacerobitaille22:24
bersacedunno very well22:24
kwwiiyeah, it was a big loss for us that he left the desktop team to work on the community stuff22:24
bersacei'll try to get gnome-scan 0.6 up for March22:24
kwwiiI felt the difference having to build my own packages22:24
bersacethen let's wide-theme-switcher on the way22:25
bersaceack22:25
kwwiicoming from SUSE and a pure kde world it was quite a bit of extra work for me22:25
kwwiiis there already a spec (blueprint now) for this?22:25
kwwiiI recall seeing something22:25
kwwiiif not, perhaps I should suggest one for the boston UDS22:26
kwwiiwould you have time to talk about this with us at UDS? as of when are you going to be out of touch?22:27
bersacere22:36
bersacei wrote wide-theme-switcher specs about one years ago22:36
bersacefirst result for "wide-theme-switcher"22:37
bersace!22:37
bersacekwwii: as i said, i will pop up this spec for hardy+122:40
