| _MMA_ | thorwil: I tell you, Sebastian is a machine. Though I'm a little sad more people aren't participating. | 15:08 |
|---|---|---|
| kwwii | _MMA_: my experience has been that only one or two people will be very active...there simply is a lack of talented icon artists willing to spend much time on OSS | 15:18 |
| _MMA_ | kwwii: Oh I know. I woulda liked at least 1 more person. Maybe a push after we have a little more of a set together might get someone. I think putting a release on GNOME-Look might help. | 15:20 |
| kwwii | give it some time, I am sure others will follow | 15:34 |
| _MMA_ | kwwii: I gotta do a little more to get the word out. I've been kinda unmotivated because of stress to do anything other than maintain BZR and the wiki. But I gotta do some more promotion soon. | 15:37 |
| kwwii | _MMA_: yeah, I know that feeling | 15:38 |
| kwwii | but getting more word out would be a good idea | 15:38 |
| kwwii | not sure how easy that it though | 15:39 |
| _MMA_ | I think throwing a release up on GNOME-Look soon would start to help. Put in a little README about getting involved. | 15:40 |
| kwwii | very good idea | 15:41 |
| thorwil | if it was only a lack of talented artists. too many fail at basic communication :> | 16:45 |
| thorwil | kwwii: what's the plan regarding alpha wallpapers now? | 16:45 |
| kwwii | thorwil: there is still some discussion...bascially it boils down to a question of whether we will use a mascot on the final wallpaper or not | 17:17 |
| kwwii | thorwil: I had meetings today about just this, expect more info in the next two days or so | 17:17 |
| thorwil | kwwii: ok. i would treat wallpapers for alpha and final as entirely separated concerns, but that's just me, apparently | 17:19 |
| kwwii | thorwil: right, the point is that we don't want to use a mascot on the alpha wallpaper if we are going to use one with a mascot in the final | 17:19 |
| kwwii | and we don't want to start asking for final wallpapers until we have a decent design brief | 17:20 |
| thorwil | wow, a brief! it happens! | 17:20 |
| thorwil | :) | 17:20 |
| kwwii | well, let's wait and see what we comes before we get our hopes up ;) | 17:44 |
| kwwii | -we | 17:44 |
| darkmatter | http://leuchtstoff.deviantart.com/art/overlay-eye-candy-no-function-97746451 -- neat | 18:54 |
| _MMA_ | darkmatter: Interesting. Would be a kinda neat screensaver. (not that it would save the screen much) | 18:56 |
| darkmatter | _MMA_: not even the screensaver.. just as an overlay is nice.. make's thinkgs seem less virtual/more real | 18:57 |
| _MMA_ | I said screensaver because I feel it would be a bit distracting as anything else. Just my POV. | 18:58 |
| darkmatter | as presented.. probably.. but it's the basic idea that's appealing | 19:00 |
| darkmatter | not the actual pattern | 19:01 |
| _MMA_ | sure | 19:01 |
| _MMA_ | I'm *postitve* Compiz can handle something like this. | 19:02 |
| darkmatter | so. you have a wallpaper that has nice ambiance with well defined 'zones', have an overlay that matches, but if a window moves into that zone 'could add a 'zoom' effect for unfocused to create the illusion od slightly increased distance from focused), any shadows cast would ovelay the unfocused windows in the zones | 19:09 |
| darkmatter | it's just another way (purely graphical) to make the interface feel like a physical object | 19:09 |

| primes2h | kwwii: Hello, are you there? | 22:35 |
| primes2h | :-) | 22:35 |
| kwwii | primes2h: hi | 22:59 |
| kwwii | hey _MMA_ | 23:01 |
| kwwii | just uploaded some old stuff I did with the company I founded 12+ years ago | 23:01 |
| kwwii | kinda funny looking at it now | 23:01 |
| _MMA_ | :) | 23:01 |
| kwwii | http://sinecera.de/mbavi.avi | 23:01 |
| _MMA_ | kwwii: I'm helping Julian get set up on LP. https://launchpad.net/levelhead | 23:01 |
| kwwii | and http://sinecera.de/Popstar_Compare.mpg | 23:02 |
| kwwii | hehe | 23:02 |
| kwwii | wow, that looks neat | 23:03 |
| primes2h | kwwii: Hi, I made a patch for this bug #172353 | 23:03 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 172353 in human-icon-theme "Human theme has non-translatable emblem names." [Low,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/172353 | 23:03 |
| primes2h | This is the debdiff http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/107953/ | 23:04 |
| kwwii | primes2h: yeah, I saw that email, didn't read it though | 23:04 |
| kwwii | what is the point? | 23:04 |
| primes2h | Could you please have a look? | 23:04 |
| primes2h | hubuntu-icon-theme doesn't have translation support for emblems... | 23:04 |
| kwwii | primes2h: looks like a no-brainer to me | 23:04 |
| primes2h | human sorry | 23:05 |
| kwwii | just adding the right po files | 23:05 |
| kwwii | well, pot files | 23:05 |
| kwwii | sometimes I wish other people had write acces to this stuff :p | 23:05 |
| _MMA_ | hehe | 23:05 |
| kwwii | it would save me a lot of work | 23:05 |
| primes2h | no, It's not that simple. | 23:05 |
| kwwii | hrm? | 23:05 |
| primes2h | I had to create .icon.in files, change mMakefile.am in scalable/emblems/ and obviously POTFILES.in | 23:06 |
| primes2h | I followed gnome-icon-theme structure... | 23:06 |
| primes2h | It has translation for emblems... | 23:07 |
| kwwii | primes2h: it is shortly after 0:00 here, I will look at this tomorrow, ok? | 23:07 |
| kwwii | I am dead in the water, atm | 23:07 |
| primes2h | ok! Thanks fo now :-) | 23:07 |
| kwwii | if it works and is correct, I think it is a good idea | 23:07 |
| primes2h | Ok, but I would like you to have a look.. ;-) | 23:08 |
| primes2h | there is also a strange thing happened, but I'll ask you tomorrow.. | 23:08 |
| primes2h | I'm not used in packaging, patches etc... | 23:09 |
| primes2h | yet | 23:09 |
| primes2h | I'm leaving, see you tomorrow.. thanks... :-) | 23:10 |
| kwwii | oh well, time for sleep | 23:45 |
| kwwii | night | 23:45 |
