| lianimator | question: if my wacom is a different aspect ratio from my screen's, is it safe to do artwork with it or should I change my screen to fit my wacom's ratio? | 08:37 |
|---|---|---|
| knome | doesn't really matter imho | 08:39 |
| knome | wysiwyg | 08:39 |
| knome | if It looks ok, it's ok | 08:40 |
| lianimator | it could affect my drawing on paper no? | 08:41 |
| Cimi | lianimator, try to draw a circle on your wacom. if it looks correct then it is ok | 08:45 |
| knome | drawing with wacom different anyway | 08:45 |
| lianimator | if I look at the screen and draw, it's okay. | 08:45 |
| knome | + is | 08:45 |
| lianimator | but if I look at the wacom and draw a circle. it's a fat oval | 08:45 |
| Cimi | maybe you have to change your wacom sensivity | 08:47 |
| Cimi | just like touchpads | 08:47 |
| lianimator | the thing is, my wacom is 6x8. whereas my screen is wide | 08:47 |
| lianimator | I usually change my screen to be 1027x768 as to keep the same ratio, but that wastes space | 08:48 |
| Spear | hey all | 09:03 |
| Spear | I've been thinking for a while about contributing to Ubuntu but have never had the time before now. | 09:03 |
| Spear | I was wondering about whether I could be of any use to the Artwork team (and hopefully a few others) | 09:04 |
| Spear | Do you have to use free tools to contribute to Ubuntu, or doesn't it matter as long as any work done is offered with a free liscence? | 09:12 |
| Cimi | Spear, it should not matter... but for icons inkscape is good enough | 09:23 |
| Spear | Hey Cimi, I am a huge fan of your work :) | 09:23 |
| Cimi | while gimp is a bit different, since if supports 16bit colorspaces just for few gegl operations | 09:24 |
| Cimi | Spear, thanks :) | 09:24 |
| Spear | Have been using your themes since 06 | 09:24 |
| Cimi | oh when I started ;) | 09:24 |
| Spear | Yeah, I found your work though gnome-look | 09:24 |
| Spear | Thing is, I have a Macbook Pro and an Acer Aspire One | 09:25 |
| Spear | The Acer is really only for travelling | 09:25 |
| Cimi | answer: use the macbook pro | 09:25 |
| Spear | right. | 09:25 |
| Spear | But, Can I get tools for the mac? | 09:26 |
| Spear | I have Adobe Photoshop | 09:26 |
| Cimi | i don't know if inkscape works on osx | 09:26 |
| Spear | CS3 | 09:26 |
| Cimi | as said | 09:26 |
| Cimi | inkscape is good enough | 09:26 |
| Cimi | for icons | 09:26 |
| Cimi | while gimp suffers of some operations that works just in 8bit mode | 09:27 |
| Spear | yeah, Inkscape is compiled for OSX | 09:27 |
| Spear | I can't use Gimp it messes with my mind | 09:27 |
| Spear | I'm hopelessly addiced to Photoshop, I tried to switch to the Gimp and it didn't work out :( | 09:27 |
| Cimi | oh no it isn't | 09:28 |
| Spear | ? | 09:28 |
| Cimi | I used photoshop when I was 13 till 16 | 09:28 |
| Cimi | but then I switched to gimp | 09:28 |
| Cimi | yes the first days were hard | 09:29 |
| Cimi | but it's a great tool | 09:29 |

| _MMA_ | haha | 20:46 |
| _MMA_ | thorwil: You usin' mono and cuttin' the sampling rate down? 22kHz or something? | 20:46 |
| thorwil | _MMA_: no, this mix needs stereo badly and it looks like i don't have to touch the sampling rate | 20:47 |
| _MMA_ | Ahh nice. | 20:47 |
