[05:04] miffan4 is fully painted, need to remove a few errors. [05:04] background gradient testing: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v298/sealx/miffantestwall343.jpg [05:05] critiques? if anyone is still on [10:00] Cimi, you here? [11:12] DBO, y [17:12] background gradient testing: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v298/sealx/miffantestwall343.jpg [17:12] critiques? [17:53] SealV: i'd reduce the contrast between rabbit and background [17:54] SealV: what aspect ratio is that? [17:58] * thorwil -> dinner [18:02] 4:3 [18:02] damn I missed him [18:09] Has anyone submitted a Alpha wallpaper as Kenneth requested on the mailinglist? Just courius :-) [18:11] Would be great for alpha and beat testers [18:33] back [18:42] * thorwil pokes kwwii [19:26] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Jaunty/AlphaBackgrounds [19:27] SealV: consider adding your rabbit ^ [20:21] wiki editing is weird [20:22] one gets used to it :) [20:23] hey guys [20:23] hey [20:23] hi ken [20:23] SealV: awesome design you posted a while ago [20:23] really nifty [20:24] s/design/sketch [20:24] thanks :3 [20:24] put that on a background and I would put it in jaunty asap [20:25] we can put something in right away to make it visually different up until later in the cycle [20:25] did you see this yet? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v298/sealx/miffantestwall343.jpg [20:27] the gradient can be changed. [20:31] nope, hadn't seen that yet [20:32] mind if I pass that around for consideration? [20:32] no prob [20:38] the rabbit should sit a little higher to be save from cropping on widescreen [20:40] <_MMA_> thorwil: More toward the center as settings things to "Zoom" only crops the sides. [20:41] _MMA_: explain how you get to 16:9 from a 4:3 image by cropping the sides [20:41] I 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? [20:42] the wiki? [20:42] <_MMA_> thorwil: Well actually, yeah. This image should be made widescreen. The the "Zoom" thing works. [20:42] <_MMA_> *Then [20:44] k, uploading to wiki. [20:47] hey _MMA_ [20:51] * _MMA_ waves. [20:52] its uploaded, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Jaunty/AlphaBackgrounds [20:53] _MMA_: actually zoom crops top and bottom, if needed. it simply scales the image until both height and width of the screen are filled [20:54] <_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. [20:55] <_MMA_> Creating in widescreen keeps the resolution higher though. That's why I suggested that this go wide now. [20:55] anyway, best control of layout in cases like this can be had by using a widescreen format [20:55] heh, right [20:55] <_MMA_> :P [20:55] lol [20:56] SealV: cool. but attachments have to be lined from the wiki page, as hardly anyway looks at the list of attachments [20:56] editing right as we speak [20:56] ah, ok [20:57] _MMA_: i see your :p didn't suffer from the holidays ;p [20:57] <_MMA_> nope [21:00] now if only SealV would have had that rabbit a bit earlier, my crayon would have remained in the drawer [21:00] * thorwil hopes he didn't slaughter his tenses too much [21:01] not a good place for a crayon. they yearn to spill their lives on paper [21:03] done editing [21:05] excellent [21:06] SealV: btw, do you have something like an online portfolio? [21:06] I have a deviantart account that I never use. I suppose my email wont work will it? [21:07] portfolio via email? rather not :) [21:08] gotta 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] <_MMA_> Night. [21:08] night [21:08] islingt0ner.deviantart.com [21:10] whats ironic is that I stopped posting to DA almost a month after getting a tablet [21:32] I bought a tablet and ubuntu won't recognize it. [21:32] BHSPitLappy: there will be a good deal of work on this for jaunty [21:33] hopefully. [21:33] what kind do you have? [21:33] Is there some kind of call for info on this? Device ID's and stuff? [21:33] kwwii, it's a DigiPro [21:33] BHSPitLappy: the wacoms work really well [21:33] well duh [21:34] yes, every hardware device has a unique device id [21:34] I know, I mean is there a call for information and testing on this topic, since you say there's work being done [21:35] I know they were asking for details on peoples' 3G cards before Intrepid [21:35] there will be more information and calls for testing a little later in the cycle [21:35] right now we are just starting work [21:35] collecting how things work already, automating it, etc [21:36] this work is only to simplify/automate the configuration process, not to write drivers for tablets which currently don't work [21:39] thats awesome, mind you my wacom has been recognized since 6.10 [21:42] <_MMA_> IMO it's really the only brand to buy. They have a range of products to fit most budgets. [21:46] well I make less than $9/hr, so meh [21:46] I bought the $35 one from Woot [21:47] http://www.woot.com/Blog/ViewEntry.aspx?Id=5028
