thorwilthe gtk open file dialog is so awesome. completely stalls trying to create a preview for a complex SVG :(19:57
* SiDi asks screenshots !19:57
thorwilSiDi, it's just the "glass" background from Incoming/Jaunty. now called "gloosh" :)19:59
thorwilhow this bad joke of a broken file dialog can stay in place so long is beyond me20:00
SiDihere svg's seem to render well20:01
SiDithe few ones i got under hand are far from complex though20:01
thorwilSiDi, you can get it from http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~t-w-/ubuntu-artwork/thorwils_backgrounds/annotate/head%3A/glass/glass.svg20:04
thorwiland have fun, for example by opening it with firefox20:04
* SiDi goes download the file :)20:04
thorwilwhy the checkered-elephant does gnome-look.org only allow one upload per wallpaper?20:04
SiDiDunno20:05
SiDitheir site is so badly designed for adding artwork$20:05
SiDithey should really redesign it from scratch imo, even if it takes time20:05
thorwilyeah, works hard against my expectations20:06
thorwilbut 4 downloads a few minutes after adding20:06
SiDithorwil: it lagged a little but didnt crash or show it badly rendered :p20:07
SiDidamn20:08
SiDixfdesktop cant read svg's20:08
thorwilwant the png?20:08
knomegnome/xfce-look.org are always *damn* slow20:09
SiDii got inkscape, no worries ;)20:10
SiDiI actually begin to love inkscape20:10
SiDii'll have to dig through it and learn to use it, it looks promising20:10
thorwiloh, it's good to bring inkscape to its knees, too. or rather, make inkscape eat your cpu20:11
SiDiheh i dont try to do anything high-res with a laptop :)20:11
knomethorwil, why is the bg black in the glass.svg?20:11
SiDii just use it for simple schemes for my project report. it's a good way to get used to it20:11
thorwili've used several versions of freehand and illustrator ... inkscape is good. if only blur wasn't so expensive and export a little crisper20:12
thorwilknome, to save my eyes20:13
knomethorwil, right :P20:13
knomethorwil, why do they need to be saved?20:13
SiDiwell, about blur, i got seriously pawned when i first tried it. It lagged my pc badly20:13
thorwilknome, editing dark graphics is easier against black bg20:13
knomemaybe20:13
SiDiknome puts blue everywhere20:14
