Viper550 | hello? | 19:10 |
Viper550 | hi? | 21:52 |
hbons | hi | 21:54 |
Viper550 | hey lassegul | 22:17 |
lassegul | Viper550, hey Viper550 | 22:22 |
lassegul | Viper550, whats up | 22:22 |
Viper550 | yeah, finally resetting me up a VM of Gutsy | 22:22 |
Viper550 | stupid computer needing to "steal" my Linux hard drive since it's own primary hard drive started to fail | 22:23 |
Viper550 | now I use virtualization | 22:23 |
lassegul | ok | 22:23 |
Viper550 | usin' Virtualbox on Winblows Vista | 22:24 |
lassegul | that sucks. wipe your vista drive and install gutsy then :D | 22:25 |
Viper550 | actually, I sorta like Vista | 22:25 |
Viper550 | I know, I sorta miss not being able to use Compiz Fusion...my newer computer has had a chance to natively run Ubuntu, I used Wubi when it ran XP | 22:25 |
lassegul | you what? | 22:26 |
Viper550 | Wubi, it's this loopback installation system for Ubuntu that can install it into a loopback image on a Windows partition. It's installed through Windows | 22:26 |
lassegul | Yeah, the guy that makes it is like 2 meters from me now | 22:27 |
lassegul | but you had some wierd typing error, where it almost sounded like you liked vista. | 22:27 |
Viper550 | I do think Vista is good. Although, I do have dreams of owning a Mac Pro one day | 22:28 |
lassegul | its a free world. | 22:29 |
Viper550 | I do try to use open-source apps whenever I can | 22:30 |
Viper550 | I've been hindered because of the "loss" of my hard drive | 22:31 |
Viper550 | (one of my older computers had a 40gb secondary hd, I dual-booted Ubuntu and XP, later Fedora Core 5 and XP, and even Gentoo 2006 and XP for a little bit) | 22:32 |
Viper550 | I am going to try and contribute for 8.04 artwork-wise | 22:38 |
Viper550 | I plan on doing art for Gubuntu maybe | 23:00 |
KidProQuo | Viper550: I'm keen to get involved in gobuntu art too | 23:04 |
Viper550 | I was thinking maybe the "new" Clearlooks would be a good base | 23:06 |
KidProQuo | yeah, it could be. What's changed from the "old" clearlooks? | 23:08 |
Viper550 | new widget style, "Gummy" | 23:09 |
Viper550 | bit more greyish, more of a babyish blue | 23:09 |
KidProQuo | ok | 23:10 |
Viper550 | Gnome 2.20 default now...except on Ubuntu :) | 23:10 |
KidProQuo | that could be a good or a bad thing from our view i suppose | 23:11 |
Viper550 | I mean, cause of course we have our own theme on Ubuntu :) | 23:12 |
KidProQuo | yeah, I was meaning "our view" as potential gobuntu artists | 23:14 |
KidProQuo | I quite liked your ideas on the mailing list | 23:17 |
KidProQuo | I'm looking doing a combo of the cityscape and arrows at the mo' for possible wallpaper | 23:18 |
KidProQuo | mostly b&w photo with green arrows following the surface of the buildings | 23:19 |
Viper550 | love the whole new "gtk color scheme" system for themes | 23:19 |
KidProQuo | I haven't had a look at it yet | 23:21 |
Viper550 | you know how you can specify custom colors in your Appearance properties now? | 23:21 |
KidProQuo | I'm still using feisty. my upgrade didn't play nice with my laptop | 23:22 |
Viper550 | Feisty has that too | 23:22 |
Viper550 | just searchin "da' commons" | 23:23 |
Viper550 | for the wallpaper...temporary anyway | 23:25 |
KidProQuo | is there a place on the wiki for the gobuntu art yet? | 23:28 |
Viper550 | not sure | 23:28 |
Viper550 | thinking about that new Aurora GTK engine | 23:29 |
KidProQuo | yup | 23:31 |
Viper550 | either that or ClearLooks...I want it to be friendly looking but nice, have it convey a freedom | 23:31 |
Viper550 | freedom....................from the ugly brown from the depths of Ubuntu lore | 23:32 |
KidProQuo | rofl | 23:33 |
KidProQuo | that's one of the reasons I'm keen to get involved in gobuntu art. We can actually do something really new | 23:34 |
KidProQuo | actually the branding from the start almost | 23:35 |
KidProQuo | ^actually *define* the branding^ | 23:35 |
* Viper550 installs Aurora | 23:36 | |
* KidProQuo goes to get lunch | 23:39 | |
* Viper550 lives in EST | 23:39 | |
Viper550 | currently, this is what the offical art looks like: http://birdhouse.org/~mnep/gobuntu.png | 23:51 |
