| dashua | Breathe looking very nice :) | 03:05 |
| dashua | I just need to get this damn flash working on 64 Ibex. | 03:05 |
| dashua | Nice work. | 03:05 |
| PRGUY85 | seeing as how thorwill created those countdown to launch day banners | 03:42 |
| PRGUY85 | would it be safe to assume that the latest wallpaper is final? | 03:43 |
| kwwii | Cimi: right, new engine and theme packages coming in the next days (I've been sick) | 08:27 |
| xivulon | Hi all, I need to replace the artwork in http://www.wubi-installer.org/ | 10:36 |
| xivulon | in particular the beautiful heron has to go and be replaced by an ibex. | 10:37 |
| xivulon | is there some official "ibex" to use for the purpose | 10:38 |
| xivulon | circle of friends and such will do too. Suggestions welcome | 10:38 |
| thorwil | hi xivulon | 10:39 |
| xivulon | hi :) | 10:39 |
| thorwil | hmm | 10:42 |
| thorwil | some people remain critical of using the codename animal | 10:43 |
| xivulon | I am open to suggestions | 10:44 |
| andreasn | didn't Rico Sta. Cruz do a cool Ibex? | 10:44 |
| thorwil | yes. i will hunt for the link | 10:44 |
| xivulon | If you have some more abstract idea for the website feel free | 10:44 |
| thorwil | xivulon: i could offer an SVG for the ibex shape found at the bottom of https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Website/IntrepidCountdownBanners?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=tw_intrepid_countdown_06_spiral.png | 10:45 |
| xivulon | Someone also suggested me to change the website colorscheme, as the red might turn people off | 10:45 |
| xivulon | Being associated to "warnings" | 10:45 |
| xivulon | There too if you have proposals I'll be happy to switch | 10:46 |
| thorwil | xivulon: http://img216.imageshack.us/img216/8062/bareos1.png | 10:46 |
| thorwil | meant to have a non-white background, though | 10:47 |
| xivulon | that's a beautiful one, but the white background might be an issue (in theory it just need css changes, but I am not good in generating dark color schemes) | 10:48 |
| xivulon | Someone also commented that the Heron was not appropriate since it was associated to the desktop of Gnome, while Wubi also provides Xubuntu and Kubuntu | 10:49 |
| thorwil | xivulon: as i already have lots of stuff on my list, i can offer to take this to our mailing list | 10:50 |
| xivulon | sure | 10:50 |
| thorwil | xivulon: so in short you are looking for a replacement for the heron and you're open for everything there. | 10:51 |
| xivulon | if someone wants to play with the overall design, the css is http://www.wubi-installer.org/wubi.css and the images are in http://www.wubi-installer.org/images/ | 10:51 |
| xivulon | thorwil: correct, I do need to change the heron and if one once to take one or two steps further and revamp the website design with some cool ideas, why not? | 10:52 |
| thorwil | xivulon: the only really notable occurence of red i see is in the logo | 10:53 |
| xivulon | Horizontal lines and checkmarks also are in red | 10:53 |
| xivulon | I must say I really like the spiral | 10:54 |
| xivulon | the one made of circles | 10:54 |
| xivulon | 1) for mathematical reasons, 2) because it reminds of debian | 10:54 |
| thorwil | thanks! the association with debian is not intentional, though | 10:55 |
| xivulon | And on the other side horns have a peculiar meaning in Italy... | 10:55 |
| thorwil | xivulon: seems it's already up: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/countdown | 10:55 |
| xivulon | So I'am probably more inclined to use the abstract graphics :) | 10:55 |
| thorwil | xivulon: you mean having been cheated on? | 10:56 |
| thorwil | as in girl slept with another man? | 10:57 |
| xivulon | heh yeah that is the meaning | 10:57 |
| thorwil | xivulon: it exists in german to :) | 10:57 |
| thorwil | s/to/too/ | 10:58 |
| xivulon | the (short) spiral of course might be interpreted as a horn | 10:58 |
| xivulon | but 1 horn is cool... | 10:58 |
| xivulon | 2 horns not cool... | 10:59 |
| thorwil | well, i would hope the ibex will be seen as ibex ^^ | 10:59 |
| thorwil | xivulon: i'd like to have your real name for the mail and an address for CC (excpet if you want to subscribe to the list). PM me if you so prefer | 11:00 |

| xivulon | agostino dot russo at gmail dot com | 11:08 |
| thorwil | ok, but it should be fixed on the LP site ;) | 11:08 |
| xivulon | done | 11:09 |

| xivulon | thorwil: thanks a lot | 11:13 |
| thorwil | xivulon: np | 11:13 |
| xivulon | I for one like that wallpaper... | 11:15 |
| thorwil | xivulon: kwwii made it | 11:19 |
| thorwil | to me, it's sad that it is being criticized for daring to introduce even the most subtle hint of colors other than brown-red-orange | 11:21 |
| tuxice | hello | 12:46 |
| thorwil | hello tuxice | 12:46 |
| tuxice | hello | 12:46 |
| tuxice | whats with the theme for intrepid alpha & beta | 12:46 |
| tuxice | many users are complaining with usability | 12:47 |
| tuxice | there is a planned change for the final release correct? | 12:47 |
| thorwil | not that i know | 12:47 |
| tuxice | that could be a problem | 12:48 |
| tuxice | have any wallpapers been selected? | 12:48 |
| tuxice | hello njpatel_ | 12:48 |
| njpatel | tuxice: hey | 12:49 |
| njpatel | njpatel_: is my alterego using my laptop :-) | 12:49 |
| tuxice | oh | 12:49 |
| tuxice | weird..... | 12:49 |
| thorwil | tuxice: what has been selected is what you see in the beta. while the wallpaper could be replaced for the final release, i doubt it will | 12:50 |
| tuxice | ok, i shall take a look (havent seen the beta yet), is the theme the same as the alpha | 12:50 |
| tuxice | ? | 12:50 |
| thorwil | tuxice: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Njc1NA | 12:51 |
| tuxice | ok, so basically its 8.04's theme with a new wallpaper?!?!?!? what happened to the readical new design?!?!?!?!?!? | 12:53 |
| thorwil | oh please, be careful with those ! and ?, because if you continue like that, we will soon have none of them left! | 12:54 |
| tuxice | i believe we should aim for this more | 12:55 |
| tuxice | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Intrepid/Clear_Intrepid | 12:55 |
| thorwil | tuxice: nothing. who said "radical", btw? | 12:55 |
| tuxice | forum members, and i believe i read it somewhere on a wiki page | 12:56 |
| thorwil | people on the forums often get stuff wrong or even make it up | 12:56 |
| tuxice | ok | 12:57 |
| tuxice | so basically it is what it is | 12:57 |
| thorwil | it is true that there were plans to have a new theme for hardy already, then it was decided that the LTS release as last of a serious should not introduce such changes | 12:57 |
| tuxice | and then i thought that was supposed to be postponed till intrepid | 12:58 |
| thorwil | i'm not even sure there was an outright promise to have the new theme in intrepid, but mybe there was | 12:58 |
| thorwil | but then only what either Mark Shutlleworth or the art director Kenneth Wimer said counts | 12:58 |
| tuxice | will these be the folders? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Intrepid/Intrepid_Ibex_Icons_-_Art_Team?action=AttachFile&do=view&target=pn_folder_overview.png | 13:00 |
| thorwil | no | 13:00 |
| thorwil | tuxice: you can forget about everything on the wiki there, excpet for the themes that are in kwwii's PPA | 13:01 |
| thorwil | tuxice: https://launchpad.net/~kwwii/+archive | 13:01 |
| tuxice | ok | 13:01 |
| tuxice | ill look | 13:01 |
| thorwil | tuxice: there are 2 projects within the ubuntu artwork community that should make us more productive. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/BreatheIconSet and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/KyudoGuidelines | 13:04 |
| thorwil | tuxice: perhaps you could spread the word, if you want to help | 13:04 |
| tuxice | ok will do.. | 13:05 |
| tuxice | everything on the wiki under GPL? | 13:05 |
| thorwil | nope | 13:05 |
| tuxice | how about this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Intrepid/Intrepid_Ibex_Icons_-_Art_Team?action=AttachFile&do=view&target=pn_folder_overview.png | 13:06 |
| tuxice | any licence anywhere | 13:06 |
| tuxice | i dont see one | 13:06 |
| thorwil | tuxice: for all i know, the wiki doesn't imply a license. some pages do have license notes | 13:06 |
| tuxice | ok | 13:07 |
| thorwil | if you see none, you may assume broad fair use rights | 13:07 |
| tuxice | ok | 13:07 |
| tuxice | thanks | 13:07 |
| tuxice | gonna make a theme | 13:07 |
| thorwil | np | 13:07 |
| thorwil | tuxice: what do you expect how long it takes to create a good theme? | 13:08 |
| tuxice | months, years | 13:08 |
| tuxice | but im also in the process of creating an os | 13:08 |
| thorwil | ok, i was worried you might underestimate the effort :) | 13:09 |
| tuxice | nope | 13:09 |
| tuxice | hey, can i help with the breathe icons? | 13:09 |
| thorwil | tuxice: you should consider to join one of the already running theme projects | 13:09 |
| tuxice | such as? NewHuman, Oxygen | 13:10 |
| thorwil | tuxice: sure, we need more people. but of course this depends on your skills. | 13:10 |
| thorwil | tuxice: Dust and the others you find in the PPA i linked | 13:10 |
| thorwil | tuxice: did you work on themes or icons before? do you have a portfolio / any work online you could show? | 13:12 |
| tuxice | thorwil: i do not have a portfollio, but i do do lots of graphic design | 13:13 |
| thorwil | tuxice: say hello to _MMA_, the man behind Breathe | 13:13 |
| tuxice | _MMA_ Hello, I like the concept of breathe | 13:14 |
| tuxice | So, i have to go now, i will be back though | 13:17 |

| thorwil | yeah, already had my fun with that report and a forum thread of eleven pages | 13:28 |
| _MMA_ | 'Tis why I don't go to the forums anymore. | 13:30 |
| Nece228 | no new theme :( | 13:33 |
| Nece228 | i think at least they should make gradient, panel background and to change color pallete | 13:35 |
| thorwil | grrr. wordpress doesn't allow me to insert a <script> into a post. no live countdown banner for me. http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/countdown | 13:35 |
| Nece228 | thorwil: what do you mean by "The theme teams are doing a good job now on a few community themes" | 13:43 |
| _MMA_ | thorwil: I'm not gonna be around much today. Well, I might be on but not sitting here. I'll get back to anything I can when I see it. | 13:47 |
| thorwil | Nece228: https://launchpad.net/~kwwii/+archive | 13:52 |
| Nece228 | thorwil: what engine i need for kin theme? | 14:07 |
| thorwil | Nece228: no idea, but if you use the PPA, the dependency should be taken care of already | 14:09 |
| Nece228 | thorwil: ive installed community-themes_1.0_all.deb | 14:10 |
| thorwil | Nece228: if something with it doesn't work, you should report to kwwii | 14:10 |
| Nece228 | thorwil: because i see only new borders, but gtk looks like raleigh | 14:11 |
| Nece228 | thorwil: all these themes will be included in intrepid? | 14:14 |
| thorwil | Nece228: i'm not sure if the package will be installed by default, or just be offered in addition | 14:15 |
| Nece228 | thorwil: ok, thanks for link :P | 14:16 |
| Nece228 | omg ubuntuforums.org has new ubuntu logo on top | 14:20 |

| Mirv | thorwil: hi. our people are a bit too fast, and created already a version from the bitmap directly... it was now (a minute ago) put at http://www.ubuntu-fi.org/ - does that seem ok to you? | 20:40 |
| Mirv | thorwil: anyway, a big thanks for the work with counter | 20:40 |
| * thorwil looks | 20:55 | |
| Mirv | there's now a link similar to ubuntu.com below the image | 20:57 |
| thorwil | Mirv: it's ok, although it lacks the care i invested in scaling the number and text for the best layout | 20:58 |
| thorwil | gotta run. good night! | 21:01 |
| Mirv | thorwil: right, ok. I'll ask if the person who did the hacking would like to take a look at the exact scaling/font used in the original | 21:01 |
