AliTabuger7hello16:07
shahriar86hello friends :)16:08
AliTabuger7hey16:08
shahriar86seen your mockups I think those are good.. keep working on them :)16:09
shahriar86*let them keep coming16:09
AliTabuger7how are you shahriar8616:09
shahriar86doing so so16:09
AliTabuger7did you see the new one for specific materials?16:09
AliTabuger7why so so?16:09
AliTabuger7Specific materials: http://img509.imageshack.us/img509/3009/sumaterialv0003resizedbx5.jpg16:10
shahriar86yes I have seen it16:11
shahriar86its good to follow now but in the long run I don't think its any real use16:12
shahriar86*my personal opinion16:12
shahriar86because most people don't need those details16:13
shahriar86say for image most people won't be interested to know the details of the image. they are more of interested in contents & the license16:13
shahriar86but what you have drawn is good enough to go with16:17
shahriar86currently we don't have much time to play with16:17
shahriar86*test with16:17
AliTabuger7it only takes me like 5 minutes to draft up one of those, if you have some suggestions it may be just as easy to implement the first time. the thing is it means that we do the same thing but twice as much later on if we have to change it.16:19
shahriar86twice as much?16:20
shahriar86AliTabuger7:  be *left back. dinner time16:20

hubuntuhei AliTabuger7 22:21
AliTabuger7hello22:21
hubuntuI didn't see pep... what a pity22:21
AliTabuger7you the one adding stuff to the testsite?22:21
hubuntuyeah22:21
hubuntuputting something other than the original stuff22:21
hubuntujust to have something22:21
hubuntuare you working on it?22:22
AliTabuger7i added the logo which took longer than it sounds because pep had something weird with the file uploader, but i fixed it at least temporarily. Other than that not much though22:22
AliTabuger7I got a couple hours free though, what would you like me to do?22:22
AliTabuger7I still don't have ftp access so i can't do any theming22:23
hubuntuMaybe we should make changes to the template?22:23
hubuntuFlannel, have you been able to work on the DB?22:23
AliTabuger7There are some things I could do that wouldn't need template access22:24
hubuntuI need to start putting the material there for testing22:24
hubuntudon't you have ftp yet?22:24
AliTabuger7for example I could implement the side panel "get" "make" "share" links22:24
AliTabuger7no22:24
AliTabuger7pep was going to, but i think he might have forgot or didn't get around to it22:24
AliTabuger7I was also thinking i could try to find where the original version of that logo was from because my version looks terrible after being compressed.22:25
hubuntummm22:26
hubuntucan you work with a drupal install locally?22:26
hubuntujust set up a LAMP server in your computer22:26
AliTabuger7i've got localhosts all over the place here, i can do it.22:26
hubuntugood :)22:26
hubuntuthe changes can just be done to the drupal template and then upload it with pep's help22:27
AliTabuger7Sure i guess i could do that. I think i can find that ubuntu07 theme too22:28
=== elkbuntu is now known as elky
hubuntuyes, I believe there is a link in the wiki somewhere22:28
hubuntuwith that we can start making changes and applying them to the testpage22:29
hubuntuI like the menues in the left you have proposed22:29
hubuntumaybe you can get on working on that too?22:29
hubuntudon't think about compression at this stage22:30
hubuntujust quality22:30
hubuntuwe will optimize the site later22:30
AliTabuger7I think i can do that without fs access actually. I'm assuming that the hotlinks is included in ubuntu07 since it's on the ubuntu.com site22:30
hubuntuyes they are hardcoded22:30
hubuntuyou must make changes with ftp access22:31
AliTabuger7which i don't have22:31
hubuntuthere's no access from drupal to change them22:31
hubuntuexaclty22:31
hubuntubut If you do it locally, then the changes can be uploaded22:31
AliTabuger7but i'd just create a block with the <div #hotlinks> blah blah bla22:31
hubuntusince the changes are just done in the them template22:31
hubuntuand the same code would be at the testpage as in your lamp server locally22:32
hubuntu;)22:32
hubuntuI've got to go22:32
hubuntuBut we can still add more menues oin top from drupal, so if you want to start testing the RSS trick please do22:33
hubuntuI'll take a look at the site tomorrow22:33
hubuntuwe should consider uploading a branch in bzr22:33
AliTabuger7yeah, if you do that i wouldn't need ftp access22:34
AliTabuger7looks like i forgot a tag somewhere but theres my start22:37
hubuntuask pep in the list to upload the site to bzr22:37
hubuntusee you tomorrow22:37
AliTabuger7k will do22:38
hubuntubye22:38
AliTabuger7bye22:38
