kwwiiandreasn: to be honest, I don't think we have to get rid of mist01:37
kwwiibut crux and co can go ;)01:37
andreasnwhat ones are currently installed by default?01:37
andreasncrux, mist, glossy, clearlooks, glider, HighContrast01:38
andreasndid I miss someone?01:38
kwwiicrux, glider an glossy can go, if you ask me01:39
* _MMA_ says toss 'em all but Human, Clearlooks and HiContrast.01:39
_MMA_;)01:39
kwwii_MMA_: but you are a long-haired metal head01:40
SealVscrew it, just have redmond I say01:40
_MMA_kwwii: I *know* you've seen the pics with my hair gone. I shaved it almost a year ago. ;)01:40
kwwiino shit?01:41
kwwiihonestly, I haven't seen them01:41
* kwwii wishes he had hair to shave01:41
* _MMA_ thinks he didn't put 'em on Flickr yet actually. (just new kids ones. http://www.flickr.com/photos/metalmusicaddict01:42
kwwiiandreasn: so, we are honestly looking at taking out those themes and splitting thingssss01:42
kwwiiman, I need to update my pics...it has been like 2 months01:43
andreasnI wouldn't really mind throwing some of them into -extras01:43
kwwiiwell, I know that I cannot change things upsteam01:43
andreasnI think you can actually01:43
andreasnthos is just a bit stubborn01:43
kwwiibut maybe if ubuntu sets an example and leads things in advance for once01:44
SealVwhy glider?01:45
kwwiii am in the process of setting up a contest on deviantART as well as having contacted several design schools to fund projects around ubuntu design01:46
andreasnit does, in some places, like not showing app launchers for stuff like the pdf reader, image viewer and package app01:46
andreasnbut upstream didn't apply those, either because they didn't notice01:46
andreasnor because noone offered patches01:46
kwwiiSealV: heh? you are a glider fan?01:46
SealVclean, minimal, looks good with right fonts, yeah I guess so..01:47
andreasnso we might end up with the same situation with the themes, especially if we don't communicate with eachother01:47
kwwiiandreasn: sure, and to be honest, at this point I am looking to find the most amazing artwork/mockups/etc that I can find01:47
SealVwhat about that willibex thing that went around01:47
kwwiiandreasn: definitely01:48
andreasnI tried to look around a bit in the ubuntu wiki as well, but didn't find much that wasn't just a wallpaper and some other small thing01:48
kwwiiSealV: did you see the wallpaper brief for the release?01:48
kwwiiandreasn: yeah01:48
SealVwallpaper brief?01:48
kwwiihttp://sinecera.de/jaunty_wallpaper.pdf01:49
SealVyup saw that01:49
kwwiiit was posted to the art mailing list a while ago01:49
andreasnbut it would be good to discuss what upstream and downstream want out of the gnome-themes package01:53
andreasnprobably we have similar goals. if it turns out that they differ, it would be a good thing that ubuntu did it's own thing01:53
andreasnbut otherwise we're just going to end up with a massive amount of bugs all over the place01:54
andreasnmaybe the desktop summit would be a good place to discuss it?01:54
andreasnwho is responsible for those menu changes btw? I wonder what the reason for not sending those upstream was. Was it the very stubborn group of people on desktop-devel-list (that never manages to come to real conclusions), or was it a active move to differentiate from the other distros, or just pure laziness?01:58
SealVoh hey! sorry to go all ADD: http://www.aldolat.it/grafica/jaunty-jackalope-cover-etichetta-poster/01:59
SealVhow awesome is that? he mailed me a link01:59
_MMA_It's ok. He just stuck together a bunch of pre-existing images. That's not to say it's a bad thing. Just that it's, ok. meh.02:01
SealVits awesome because he used miffan :P, I would have used a diff font02:02
_MMA_I also /think/ his reflection is off.02:02
SealVon the poster02:02
SealVso the deviantart idea is still around? I remember seeing that on brainstorm02:05
kwwiiandreasn: at this point, I would be happy if they moved them anywhere02:10
kwwiioops02:10
kwwiibooooaaahhhh, it is 3 am02:12
andreasnyes, I need to go to bed02:13
andreasnand you too02:13
kwwiiandreasn: it would be a really good idea for us to tie things together02:13
andreasnyes, have a good nights sleep now!02:13
kwwiino doubt, I just got back from london at 1am02:14
kwwiisee you soon02:14
SealVideapurge: http://www.piccdrop.com/images/1235702538.png03:16
SealVcritique?03:16
_MMA_"Days to go:" gets a little lost IMO. Maybe fill it in.03:17
SealVhmm better or worse? :http://www.piccdrop.com/images/1235704915.png03:22
_MMA_SealV: Little bit. Thing is, if the pencil lines on the smaller font matched the "30" on thickness you would be fine. The weight/strength on the text I think is lacking.03:25
_MMA_Maybe you could convert the text to path and stroke the test with the same color in order to thicken up the feel?03:26
_MMA_s/test/text03:26
SealVgood idea,  think i understand what you mean03:27
_MMA_That's *if* you're doin' think in Inkscape. The page curl looks like a GIMP effect.03:29
_MMA_s/think/this03:32
kwwiierm, my email introducing julian_ didn't make it to the list, did it?12:35

SiDihuh ?15:48
kwwiiI shouldn't have posted the email address like that15:48
SiDiwell, true :)15:49
SiDiis it the theme's author, though? i won't mail him/her anyways, it's just that i posted a comment on the theme's wiki about a bug with firefox but apparently noone saw it15:49
SiDithus i guess i'll just post on the mail list15:49
