SealVhey20:23

kwwiiSealV: awesome design you posted a while ago20:23
kwwiireally nifty20:23
kwwiis/design/sketch20:24
SealVthanks :320:24
kwwiiput that on a background and I would put it in jaunty asap20:24
kwwiiwe can put something in right away to make it visually different up until later in the cycle20:25
SealVdid you see this yet? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v298/sealx/miffantestwall343.jpg20:25
SealVthe gradient can be changed.20:27
kwwiinope, hadn't seen that yet20:31
kwwiimind if I pass that around for consideration?20:32
SealVno prob20:32
thorwilthe rabbit should sit a little higher to be save from cropping on widescreen20:38
_MMA_thorwil: More toward the center as settings things to "Zoom" only crops the sides.20:40
thorwil_MMA_: explain how you get to 16:9 from a 4:3 image by cropping the sides20:41
SealVI am actually prepping the xcf file so y'all can play around with it you like. what a good place to up an xcf file?20:41
thorwilthe wiki?20:42
_MMA_thorwil: Well actually, yeah. This image should be made widescreen. The the "Zoom" thing works.20:42
_MMA_*Then20:42
SealVk, uploading to wiki.20:44
kwwiihey _MMA_20:47
* _MMA_ waves.20:51
SealVits uploaded,  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Jaunty/AlphaBackgrounds20:52
thorwil_MMA_: actually zoom crops top and bottom, if needed. it simply scales the image until both height and width of the screen are filled20:53
_MMA_thorwil: It depends on the aspect of the image. widescreen crops the sides on a 4:3 screen and 4:3 crops top/bottom to get widescreen.20:54
_MMA_Creating in widescreen keeps the resolution higher though. That's why I suggested that this go wide now.20:55
thorwilanyway, best control of layout in cases like this can be had by using a widescreen format20:55
thorwilheh, right20:55
_MMA_:P20:55
SealVlol20:55
thorwilSealV: cool. but attachments have to be lined from the wiki page, as hardly anyway looks at the list of attachments20:56
SealVediting right as we speak20:56
thorwilah, ok20:56
thorwil_MMA_: i see your :p didn't suffer from the holidays ;p20:57
_MMA_nope20:57
thorwilnow if only SealV would have had that rabbit a bit earlier, my crayon would have remained in the drawer21:00
* thorwil hopes he didn't slaughter his tenses too much21:00
SealVnot a good place for a crayon. they yearn to spill their lives on paper21:01
SealVdone editing21:03
thorwilexcellent21:05
thorwilSealV: btw, do you have something like an online portfolio?21:06
SealVI have a deviantart account that I never use. I suppose my email wont work will it?21:06
thorwilportfolio via email? rather not :)21:07
thorwilgotta go, good night! :)21:08
* _MMA_ has started to put stuff on his DA account for just this reason. I gotta add alot more.21:08

SealVwhats ironic is that I stopped posting to DA almost a month after getting a tablet21:10
BHSPitLappyI bought a tablet and ubuntu won't recognize it.21:32
kwwiiBHSPitLappy: there will be a good deal of work on this for jaunty21:32
BHSPitLappyhopefully.21:33
kwwiiwhat kind do you have?21:33
BHSPitLappyIs there some kind of call for info on this?  Device ID's and stuff?21:33
BHSPitLappykwwii, it's a DigiPro21:33
kwwiiBHSPitLappy: the wacoms work really well21:33
BHSPitLappywell duh21:33
kwwiiyes, every hardware device has a unique device id21:34
BHSPitLappyI know, I mean is there a call for information and testing on this topic, since you say there's work being done21:34
BHSPitLappyI know they were asking for details on peoples' 3G cards before Intrepid21:35
kwwiithere will be more information and calls for testing a little later in the cycle21:35
kwwiiright now we are just starting work21:35
kwwiicollecting how things work already, automating it, etc21:35
kwwiithis work is only to simplify/automate the configuration process, not to write drivers for tablets which currently don't work21:36
SealVthats awesome, mind you my wacom has been recognized since 6.1021:39
_MMA_IMO it's really the only brand to buy. They have a range of products to fit most budgets.21:42
BHSPitLappywell I make less than $9/hr, so meh21:46
BHSPitLappyI bought the $35 one from Woot21:46
