RzRkwwii: I started to gather resources about dark themes bugs at http://rzr.online.fr/q/dark I'll keep you informed if it matters00:29
kwwiiRzR: let me take a look at that, 1s00:37
kwwiiRzR: that looks like a good start00:38
kwwiiRzR: I am sure that we can add to that00:38
kwwii_MMA_ knows quite a few places00:38
kwwiithe important thing is that is has to be done in concert with the gnome people upstream or it will never work00:39
kwwiimuch like the 2D panel icon stuff00:39
kwwiianyway, I was almost in bed00:39
RzRwell i am about to go on vacations for 10 days00:40
kwwiitomorrow is a holiday here...see you soon00:40
kwwiihehe00:40
kwwiiholidays are lovely00:40
kwwiikeep in touch, I think it is an interesting idea00:40
RzRi'll think about moving this draft somewhere more appropriate00:40
kwwiithe wiki would be a good place00:41
RzRbut it'll takes time00:41
kwwiisure00:41
RzRwell that's a long fight against photons :)00:42
RzRbut darkness will win it's sure00:42
kwwiilol, right00:45
RzRjezz00:54
RzRi just reported a bug on wireshark00:54
RzRand there is a patch already00:55
RzRthis sound promising00:55
kwwiitime for sleep here, 2am...see you soon00:56
RzRsame here00:57
RzRCET00:57
RzRsee ya00:57
RzRkwwii: last question ?00:57
RzRkwwii: is it ok to forward darkmen here ?00:58
_MMA_Who or what is that?00:58
RzRdarthemes users / bug hunters00:59
_MMA_damianvila: You not using Linux? :) Unless Miranda now has a nix client. :P01:00
_MMA_RzR: "darthemes" I'm sorry. I'm not up on that term.01:01
RzRwe talked about it few hours ago01:01
RzRsee01:01
RzRhttp://rzr.online.fr/q/dark01:01
_MMA_RzR: I think it's best you head up this.01:03
_MMA_If you make this channel a point of contact, people should look for you.01:03
RzRor other pple intressed into eye candy ...01:04
_MMA_Im not sure exactly what you're trying to accomplish.01:04
_MMA_Just making apps more "dark theme" compliant?01:05
RzRyes01:05
_MMA_Then you need to be the point of contact.01:05
_MMA_Otherwise people will come in looking for answers and people here will have no clue.01:05
RzRok if it doesnt ruin my life i can manage this01:06
_MMA_Well then honestly I wouldn't start something and dump it here if you can head it up.01:06
_MMA_s/can/can't01:06
RzRno actually i dont know if this topic is interessing pple or not01:07
RzRand I cant run a irc desk 24*701:07
_MMA_Then I wouldn't make this channel or mailing list a point of contact.01:08
RzRbut I remove the irc references on my page ..01:08
RzRthe point of contact is me actually01:08
_MMA_Sure. I just said don't make it just the channel. :)01:09
RzRit never was01:10
_MMA_"RzR: kwwii: is it ok to forward darkmen here ?" That implies you wanted to. I just said not to. ;)01:10
RzRthe job will be fun when pple start complaining  about closed source applications :)01:12
_MMA_RzR@#ubuntu-artwork is fine but you said you didn't have the time to be here. So that actually a little unfair to people reading you wiki and to people here. Honestly if you don't have the time I wouldn't start this.01:13
damianvilaHi _MMA_ and everybody01:14
damianvilaNo, not on Ubuntu right now. Using XP actually01:14
_MMA_damianvila: I loved Miranda. I wish I could still use it.01:15
damianvila_MMA_: Fact is, when you want to fine tune a CSS, you better have good acces to all the browser engine, and I have it easy using XP for that01:16
RzR_MMA_: ok I understand no pb , you might be busy with other project too01:17
damianvilaYep. Adjusting some CSS for a popular site here in Spain :-)01:17
RzR_MMA_: BTW, I am thinking now, transparents icons on dark background may cause trouble too no ?01:18
damianvilaSo, what's going on here? Do we have the default theme for Intrepid yet? :-D01:23
_MMA_RzR: Correct.01:24
_MMA_damianvila: I get ya.01:24
_MMA_Brown=poop01:25

damianvila;-)01:36
damianvilaD-E-F-A-U-L-T01:37
_MMA_damianvila: We're waiting on the Intrepid stuff to get in place for the technical bits. I have some ideas art-wise.01:37
damianvilaTake care, kwwii lol01:37
_MMA_But not anything solid yet. Ill do that after UDS.01:37
damianvilaAny hints so far from sabdfl about what he wants (art-wise) for Intrepid?01:41
_MMA_Won't likely happen 'till after UDS.01:41
damianvilaK01:41
_MMA_So 3 weeks or so.01:41
damianvilaWhere is it? (UDS)01:42
_MMA_Prague01:43
damianvilaOh! If they ever make one in Madrid I could attend... :-P01:44
_MMA_They did. (I think)01:44
damianvilaReally?01:45
_MMA_Thought so. I'm gonna go to Dublin after Prague to hang out with Luis. (another Spaniard)01:45
damianvilaCool01:46
_MMA_damianvila: He was that guy we realized was like a block or 2 from you.01:47
damianvilaI want to travel to Germany sometime. Czech Republic too.01:47
_MMA_Germany would be cool.01:47
damianvila_MMA_: Oh!, yes, I remember him.01:47
_MMA_Yeah. He got a job with Sun in Dublin.01:48
_MMA_Well, paid internship rather.01:48

* _MMA_ doesn't have his creative wit happening today.15:55
thorwiljust today?15:59
_MMA_Yes.16:04

saltedlighthello :)17:04
coz_hello all17:06
_MMA_hi17:09
bersace:(17:14
bersaceseems that a lot of people are use to build linux artwork by copying proprietary os policy :(17:14
saltedlight:))17:15
saltedlightat least they do not use windows tools for that... or am i wrong? :))17:15
coz_saltedlight,  for artwork creating?  I use windows tools18:01
DanaGToo bad there's no equivalent of "SkinStudio" for GTK themes.18:02
gaurav_can i see some of the stuff you guys have created?18:08
gaurav_see what i'm up against, heheh18:08
_MMA_Some of mine: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio/Artwork18:10
_MMA_thorwil: You done any metacity hacking?18:11
thorwil_MMA_: nope18:38
_MMA_np. I got it sorted anyway. I needed to remove the app menu usually in the top left.18:41
_MMA_Can one override button_layout in Metacity with settings metacity-theme-1.xml?19:19
_MMA_damianvila: You ever hack on Metacity?19:43
damianvilaNo, frankly speaking, I'm just a designer, I don't have lots of technical knowledge and only deal with technical details if I'm obligued to.19:45
_MMA_Ok. :)19:45
damianvilaI have enough knowledge so as to know what's possible and what not, but I get bored if I delve into technicalities :-P19:47
* _MMA_ is delving into technicalities.19:47
damianvilaThat's why I tend to have lots of friends who know how to code :-D19:48
_MMA_Nice resource: http://developer.gnome.org/doc/tutorials/metacity/metacity-themes.html19:48
damianvilaWow!, cool!19:50
damianvilaDoesn't look too difficult at all.19:50
damianvilaIn fact, I work a lot with XML at my work.19:50
_MMA_Makes looking at one you're working with easier to understand.19:50
damianvilaYep19:51
damianvilaYou know if it's difficult to add a tab to the GNOME Theme manager?19:51
damianvilaLike they did with the "Effects" Compiz tab for Ubutu?19:52
damianvila*Ubuntu19:52
_MMA_damianvila: I think it requires writing C code. Would be a patch to the source.19:52
damianvila_MMA_: Oh!, i supposed it involved something like that :-P19:53
damianvilaHave to talk to the GNOME guys then...19:53
_MMA_damianvila: Im really just guessing. :) I wouldnt think it was python or something.19:55
damianvilaOK :-)19:56
