| mib_h3ga83 | hello. | 08:10 |
| mib_h3ga83 | i would like to help. | 08:10 |
| mib_h3ga83 | how can i help? | 08:11 |
| mib_h3ga83 | i can help draw, and make banners and stuff like that. i designed the banner for this site: http://ubuntu.sg/node | 08:14 |
| mib_h3ga83 | ? | 08:21 |
| rime | hmm, it seems that the carousels noscript-tag has a broken image link | 08:58 |
| rime | it looks really stupid when you don't have javascript on (it says "frame 6" and nothing else) | 08:59 |
| knome | newz2000, ^ | 12:35 |
| newz2000 | rime: thanks for pointing it out, I will fix it | 13:39 |
| thorwil | newz2000: hi! http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/countdown is very well done! | 13:45 |
| newz2000 | thanks, glad you like it. | 13:45 |
| newz2000 | I know the static image isn't quite what you were hoping for but I figure I'll switch the symlink on release day so that it's at least something | 13:45 |
| thorwil | well, the last 2 images were meant to be a "surprise", but i know you wouldn't like one giving a date, like the option i offered last time | 13:47 |
| newz2000 | :-) Yeah, call me paranoid... | 13:54 |
| newz2000 | but that's just asking for something to go wrong | 13:54 |
| thorwil | newz2000: if i increae font-size on ubuntu.com, suddenly a white "the cloud" text appears overlaid on the slideshow | 13:55 |
| newz2000 | thorwil: oh, thanks, I will fix that | 13:56 |
| thorwil | that piece of text is not selectable, but i doesn't come from my graphics | 13:56 |
| newz2000 | header image replacement | 13:56 |
| newz2000 | how big do you have to make your text to see it? | 13:57 |
| thorwil | newz2000: and if i click on the slideshow, the image that appears has cut-off text: "We would like you in testing and ... | 13:57 |
| newz2000 | doh! | 13:57 |
| newz2000 | doh! | 13:57 |
| newz2000 | doh! | 13:57 |
| * newz2000 slaps his forehead | 13:57 | |
| thorwil | heh | 13:57 |
| newz2000 | I am such an amature | 13:57 |
| newz2000 | ok, some problems fixed | 14:03 |
| * thorwil adds note to the wiki page that banners are online now | 14:08 | |
| newz2000 | thanks thorwil | 14:09 |
| newz2000 | is it too early to tell if you're getting traffic from the links? | 14:09 |
| newz2000 | (to your website) | 14:09 |
| thorwil | i'll check in a bit | 14:09 |
| thorwil | i'll have to hand out a price for most-over-the-feedback-yet for "Not funny - this is perfect. "Wow" doesn't really even do it justice. The person that made this is either a genius or someone with a whole crap load of time for perfection. 'or both'" on said wiki | 14:10 |
| thorwil | but the following "I like it. But can you put the mascots on top each day? Or replace day by mascots, day win show in mascots." is funny in a sad way | 14:11 |
| newz2000 | :-) | 14:13 |
| boredandblogging | newz2000: someone left a comment about the text not being big enough on the iframed version on my blog | 14:14 |
| boredandblogging | on the js iframed version the text-ident isn’t big enough and i get | 14:14 |
| boredandblogging | “er and in the cloud” | 14:14 |
| boredandblogging | over the animation, | 14:15 |
| boredandblogging | another couple of hundred px should fix it. | 14:15 |
| boredandblogging | no clue what it means :-) | 14:15 |
| newz2000 | boredandblogging: thanks, good feedback | 14:15 |
| thorwil | newz2000: 20 views today, 13 yesterday. but that isn't a deviation from before. were it fluctuated 4 and about 15 | 14:16 |
| newz2000 | thorwil: I just fixed the indent, can you see if it's all better now? | 14:16 |
| thorwil | newz2000: what exactly would be better now? | 14:17 |
| newz2000 | no white text when you increase the font-size | 14:17 |
| * newz2000 could not reproduce it | 14:17 | |
| thorwil | newz2000: could be that i need a step more to make it happen now | 14:17 |
| thorwil | newz2000: does your browser scale the whole page with images? my firefox is instructed to leave images alone | 14:18 |
| newz2000 | oh, mine scales the image too | 14:19 |
| thorwil | http://thorwil.wordpress.com/2009/03/27/ubuntu-904-countdown/ | 15:03 |
| newz2000 | Good work, I wish I had time to learn blender | 15:08 |
| thorwil | thanks. same here ;) | 15:09 |
| newz2000 | thorwil: did I understand correctly that you can take stuff from inkscape and use it in blender? | 15:12 |
| thorwil | newz2000: you can import curves in blender, but that isn't what i did | 15:12 |
| * thorwil -> coffee | 15:13 | |
| boredandblogging | newz2000: hey | 16:17 |
| newz2000 | boredandblogging: what's up? | 16:17 |
| boredandblogging | newz2000: http://boredandblogging.com/2009/03/26/ubuntu-904-countdown-banner/#comment-2881 | 16:18 |
| newz2000 | not possible | 16:18 |
| newz2000 | javascript would not cause any server usage at all | 16:18 |
| boredandblogging | fair enough | 16:19 |
| newz2000 | ryanakca: hey, just got a report that kubuntu.org doesn't show up in opera. I can confirm this (using 9.27) | 16:43 |
| ryanakca | newz2000: bummer, saw your email, I'll take a prod at it... does it work if you disable JS? | 20:50 |
| newz2000 | I don't know, didn't try, but opera has a .deb file and is easy to install | 20:51 |
| * ryanakca nods, will do | 20:52 | |
| knome | newz2000, did you get the non-js version fixed? | 20:53 |
| newz2000 | knome: the non-js version of the animated iframe banner? | 20:53 |
| knome | yeah. | 20:53 |
| newz2000 | yes | 20:53 |
| knome | great :) | 20:54 |
| cropalato | nice work with the ubuntu countdown. I wold like to know if i can get the source to change for pt_BR. | 21:23 |
| newz2000 | cropalato: which source did you have in mind? | 21:44 |
| newz2000 | the ring stuff is posted on the wiki and in launchpad | 21:45 |
| newz2000 | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Website/JauntyCountdownBanners#Thorwil%27s%20Ring | 21:45 |
