xivulon | thorwil: hi | 17:57 |
thorwil | hi xivulon | 17:58 |
thorwil | xivulon: i started with the window but worked on other things the last days | 17:59 |
thorwil | xivulon: should be able to get it done this weekend | 17:59 |
thorwil | brb, gotta kill compiz before it eats the rest of my memory | 18:00 |
thorwil | and now it's dinner time :) bbl | 18:02 |
xivulon | thorwil: looking forward to it :) | 18:04 |
xivulon | you think you could make distro-specific versions? | 18:06 |
xivulon | http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-installer/wubi/intrepid/files/512?file_id=images-20070323003246-kfymva6ngvn1pjt3-1 | 18:06 |
xivulon | basically each wubi dialog has 2 images a largish vertical one http://bazaar.launchpad.net/%7Eubuntu-installer/wubi/intrepid/annotate/512?file_id=kubuntukde4vertical.-20080228003518-tqfen30v2gxl2gl0-3 | 18:07 |
xivulon | and a header one http://bazaar.launchpad.net/%7Eubuntu-installer/wubi/intrepid/annotate/512?file_id=kubuntukde4header.bm-20080228003518-tqfen30v2gxl2gl0-1 | 18:07 |
xivulon | the current masterpieces are my own | 18:07 |
xivulon | ...so they'd better be disposed of... | 18:07 |
xivulon | background is white | 18:08 |
thorwil | xivulon: the window will not hint a hint at ubuntu vs. kubuntu, except if you take a brown window frame as such | 18:37 |
thorwil | xivulon: plus the window will not work for the vertical format | 18:39 |
thorwil | xivulon: i think you should just remove the drop shadows and go with the plain logos | 18:39 |
thorwil | "hint at hint", arg, give a hint of course | 18:40 |
Cimi | hi guys | 18:52 |
Nece228 | Cimi: Hi Sir! | 18:59 |
Cimi | lol, now I'm sir =) | 19:00 |
Nece228 | Cimi: Yes Sir! | 19:00 |
Nece228 | lol | 19:00 |
xivulon | thorwil ok hopefully I kept the svg somewhere | 19:01 |
Nece228 | Noobish question - why i should use svg instead of png or jpg? | 19:14 |
Cimi | Nece228, svg is a vectorial image | 19:18 |
Cimi | basically, it's an xml | 19:18 |
Cimi | you can open a svg with gedit, nano, vim, what you want (notepad) | 19:18 |
Nece228 | Cimi: i heard that | 19:18 |
Cimi | being vectorial, it can be easily scaled | 19:19 |
Nece228 | Cimi: hmm, so this is main difference http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Bitmap_VS_SVG.svg | 19:19 |
Nece228 | Cimi: svg preserves shapes | 19:19 |
Nece228 | Cimi: but svg of course is much slower | 19:20 |
Cimi | did you do some math/physics at school? | 19:20 |
Nece228 | Cimi: yeah sure | 19:20 |
Cimi | the svg has vectors | 19:20 |
Cimi | for example | 19:20 |
Cimi | draw a line from x to y | 19:20 |
Nece228 | Cimi: yeah | 19:21 |
Cimi | while a png has pixel: pixel (x=10, y=250) is red, pixel (x=10, y=251) is blue, pixel (x=10, y=252) is purple ... | 19:21 |
Cimi | so when you load a svg you can specify x, y, width height | 19:22 |
Cimi | with a png you can rescale, but you don't have precision | 19:22 |
Cimi | svg is useful to draw big icons (128x128, 256x256 | 19:23 |
Cimi | or drawing projects | 19:23 |
Nece228 | Cimi: im getting your mind | 19:23 |
Nece228 | Cimi: thats why when im zooming nautilus icons to 400% icons are still pretty | 19:24 |
Cimi | exactly | 19:24 |
Cimi | x and y are the same | 19:25 |
Cimi | width and height changes from 48x48 to 256x256 (for example) | 19:25 |
Nece228 | Cimi: well thank you for your useful information | 19:25 |
Cimi | the lines automatically are drawn correctly | 19:25 |
Cimi | from x to width | 19:25 |
Cimi | for example ;) | 19:25 |
Cimi | but at the same time, even the colors are stored in the xml file | 19:26 |
Cimi | you can change those colors on the fly, or you can set a palette shared by icons | 19:26 |
Cimi | with gimp you can't specify colors, while with inkscape you can play with every single line | 19:27 |
Cimi | http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4643787796978610202 | 19:28 |
Cimi | see this video | 19:28 |
Cimi | it's more than what I could try to explain here | 19:28 |
Nece228 | Cimi: thanks | 19:29 |
