kwwiiCimi: did you see that murrine made it in jaunty?20:13
kwwiiMadsRH: did you see my email?20:52
kwwiinot that I am the most important person in the world, but I figured I should ask :-)20:52
MadsRHkwwii -> Yes I just read it now. (sorry for the late reply)21:13
MadsRHkwwii -> I asked for the source, but he didn't sent it. I don't think he speaks/writes english very well21:13
knomesource for what?21:19
kwwiiMadsRH: or he simply doesn't have it21:43
kwwiiI imagine that a lot of what we get are copies of copies21:43
kwwiiand people just don't know21:43
MadsRHkwwii -> actually I think he doesn't21:43
kwwiiMadsRH: if possible I would like to ask again21:44
kwwiiit is very well liked amongst the brass in canonical21:44
kwwiiI showed them your ldm theme and they shit21:44
kwwiiproverbiably speaking21:45
kwwii:-)21:45
kwwiiso +1 for you from the bosses21:45
MadsRHthere's (perhaps) an issue. If he isn't the creator of this artwork, it could be copyrighted21:45
kwwiiMadsRH: well, you asked and got a resonse, right?21:45
kwwiiand it seems to be legit21:46
kwwiiif he lied, how can we know?21:46
MadsRHhe he, that is wonderful news - but I just colored the artwork ;-)21:46
kwwiiI mean, if you have seen the pic somewhere else, please admit it21:46
kwwiiI haven't21:46
kwwiiI remember seeing it on gnome-look21:46
kwwiibut that is all21:46
kwwiiat the time I liked it21:46
kwwiiI never considered doing what you did to it, and what you did is really nice :-)21:47
kwwiiin any case, if someone knows something about that pic and wants to warn us, they should21:47
MadsRHwell that's just it. I'm writing Stéphane as we speak, because I found very very similar images on www.shutterstock.com21:47
kwwiihehe, ouch21:47
MadsRHI'll try to find the link again and send it to you,21:48
kwwiiif it is really similar and protected we are up the creek21:48
kwwiierm, sending it to me is probably bad21:48
kwwiijust be sure it is really the thing and *then* send it to me21:48
kwwiinot to be stupid21:48
kwwiibut don't just start sending me similar pics21:48
kwwiias they really kills deniability21:48
kwwii:)21:49
kwwiiif it is the same pic, please let me know21:49
kwwiior a *very* apparent copy21:49
MadsRHokay, i get your point - by similar i mean a match ;-)21:49
kwwiiouch21:49
kwwiithat sucks21:49
kwwiiok, send it to me21:50
kwwii:(21:50
kwwiipeople suck21:50
kwwiilol21:50
MadsRHIt cought my eye beacuse it is the exact same as the one on Gnome-look. Not fliped or colored - a match21:50
kwwiiinstead of learning how to do art I should have learned how to program a computer to do art21:50
kwwiiMadsRH: well, it depends on the license of the original pic21:50
kwwiiif it really is a copy21:51
kwwiiin the meantime, this is *really* important21:51
kwwiias they are considering including it as a second wallpaper in Jaunty21:51
knomeabout what pic are we talking about? :P21:51
MadsRHHopefully I've bookmarked it in Jaunty so I'll have to reboot21:51
kwwiiknome: "this is not the pic I are looking for" I say, waving my hand in a jedi manner21:52
kwwiierm21:52
kwwiiwell21:52
kwwiiclose enough21:52
knome...right21:52
MadsRHkwwii -> a second? I'm really looking forward to the first :-D21:52
kwwiiMadsRH: dude...be real21:53
kwwiiubuntu is brown21:53
kwwiideal with it21:53
kwwiiroses are red, violets are blue, ubuntu is brown, and that is the color of fecal matter I laughingly say :p21:54
kwwiialthough "that's the color of poo" fits as well21:54
MadsRHkwwii -> perhaps you got me wrong, nevermind. I'll just reboot and find the bookmark. If you're not here I'll email you21:54
kwwiiMadsRH: please do, I will be up for a while but watching a film21:55
kwwiiso it might take a bit to respond21:55
_MMA_Cimi: Do we have to change anything in the themes shipping with Ubuntu to be more compatible with this new version of Murrine?22:04
Cimithey will work22:04
_MMA_k22:05
Cimithough it should be time to upgrade them22:05
Cimiehm22:05
Cimirewrite them22:05
_MMA_Any suggestions?22:05
Cimiof course22:05
Cimiwait 1 minute22:05
_MMA_k22:05
Cimi_MMA_, https://code.launchpad.net/~murrine-themes-team/murrine-themes/common-gtkrc22:10
* _MMA_ looks22:10
Cimi_MMA_, this is a good template, it contains fixes for many applications and custom widgets22:11
_MMA_Cimi: Cool. I'll have to work on it ASAP.22:11
_MMA_("it" being Studio's theme)22:11
Cimifeel free to branch if you want22:12
Cimiso you can merge the changes22:12
Cimieverytime a new fix arrives we update that gtkrc22:12
_MMA_k22:13
Cimikwwii, you should set that link as your new firefox homepage22:18
kwwiiCimi: no doubt22:19
Cimikwwii, it will fix all your issue/hacks into Human22:20
Cimiyou won't need them any longer22:20
kwwiiCimi: erm, so what can we change for Jaunty?22:21
kwwiiin the human theme, I mean22:21
kwwiithat is qutie important as we are two days before beta22:21
kwwiierm, quite22:21
Cimiwhat you should do is: rm -rf --force --destroy --nuke Human/gtk-2.0/gtkrc22:21
Cimiwhat you will do... ehm I don't know :-)22:22
kwwiiplease, this is really important that we get it right...really, at this time with everything else going on around it is really, really important22:22
Cimikwwii, you should get the common-gtkrc's gtkrc from that branch22:22
Cimiand adjust colors and styles22:22
Cimiusing shade and not mix and other wrong ways22:23
Cimi_MMA_, you should do the same for ubuntustudio, but I'm sure it is not dramatic as Human22:25
_MMA_Cimi: I will be, but not for Jaunty.22:25
CimiHuman was a theme done for ubuntulooks, which contains some strange things into the code (like static colors etc etc) which required hacks in the gtkrc to have them changed22:26
Cimiwhen Human switched to murrine, the gtkrc taken as a base was the same, and the ubuntulooks's custom code remains22:26
Cimifor example22:27
Cimithat's why the Human metacity is much darker then the selected bg color chosen in the gnome control center22:28
kwwiiCimi: HEY, in case you haven't noticed it is one day before the beta freeze22:28
kwwiiI simply don't have time to do taht22:28
kwwiithat22:28
Cimikwwii, rewriting a theme could be done in 30minutes22:28
Cimiok22:28
kwwiiI am working on like 3 other things at the same time22:28
kwwiiI have been up since 8 my time22:29
Cimiyeah22:29
kwwiiit is 23:3022:29
CimiI'm not forcing you to this for jaunty22:29
kwwiibut we need it for jaunty, really22:29
CimiI'd just like to point out the importance of this thing22:29
Cimikwwii, ask lucazade22:30
kwwiiyeah, me too22:30
Cimiwhen he will come back22:30
Cimihe is very good22:30
Cimikwwii, I have asked Luca on facebook, but it is not online now22:35
dashuakwwii: I can help re-write Human, I'm sure I have a variation around somewhere all based on the murrine common-gtkrc.22:43
dashuaGive me some direction and I'll get started.22:43
Cimikwwii, yeah dashua has good experience too22:43
dashuaMy contrast might be a bit low though ;p22:44
Cimidon't touch contrast22:45
CimiI will refine the theme22:45
dashuaOk22:45
dashuaI'm going to get rid of all of those mix hacks as I think I may have already.22:46
Cimikwwii, there's lucazade too22:48
lucazadehi all22:49
kwwiihi lucazade22:49
kwwiiplease make me happy now22:49
kwwii:p22:49
kwwiiimmediately if possible22:49
kwwii:D22:49
kwwiisorry22:49
_MMA_haha22:51
kwwiilucazade: I am trying to find someone who understands the new murrine engine enough to port the human gtkrc to the newest bling22:52
MadsRHkwwii -> did you get my email?22:52
kwwiiand Cimi tells me you rock22:52
kwwiiMadsRH: yes, did you get mine?22:52
kwwiiit has a few company peeps in CC22:52
kwwiiso it is killed22:53
kwwiiand we will look into options tomorrow22:53
kwwiiMadsRH: you also rock for taking care of this22:53
lucazadethanks.. dunno if rock.. :) i can try to make some modification to human theme22:53
kwwiithanks so much22:53
MadsRHOh, just got it now (hate rebooting all the time :-))22:53
kwwiilucazade: trust me, if you spend an hour knowing what you are doing on the human theme you rock22:53
lucazadeis there anything you dislike more?22:54
Cimilucazade, of course, consider common-gtkrc as a base22:54
lucazadei'll post here o i'll tell to cimi if i get something nice22:57
kwwiilucazade: the thing is, we need to stay pretty close to the look of human for this release...for akrmic we are free to roam23:03
lucazadeok kwwii23:04
Cimikwwii, metacity?23:05
kwwiiCimi: yes, we are still using it23:06
kwwiireluctantly23:06
Cimican we fork the Clearlooks theme and make it similar to Human?23:06
CimiClearlooks theme is 30% faster and compatible with dark themes23:07
Cimilucazade, I've removed the shadows around the comboboxentry's button23:15
Cimijust like clearlooks23:15
lucazadehaven't tried yet .. going to check it23:15
Cimihttp://dl.getdropbox.com/u/175266/Schermata.png23:17
Cimilucazade, see firefox's address bar23:18
lucazade:)23:18
Cimilike yes/no23:19
Cimi?23:19
lucazadeyes is nice, btw i liked also the previous one23:20
lucazadewhich was the issue with it?23:21
lucazadeno needs of shadow?23:21
Cimilucazade, I think that it doesn't look consistent with the entry23:22
lucazadeok23:22
lucazadeyes more consistent, i agree23:23
