bencrisford1When submitting wallpapers to: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Karmic/Backgrounds19:05
bencrisford1Can anyone submit to default?19:05
bencrisford1and can I submit to default and extra?19:05
thorwilbencrisford1, yes, anyone can19:09
thorwilbencrisford1, submissions in default might be considered for extra19:10
thorwilmaybe also the other way19:10
bencrisford1ok19:10
bencrisford1my submission isnt very good as it is19:10
bencrisford1but i hope to improve it19:10
bencrisford1hopefully with some feedback from the rest of the team :)19:10
bencrisford1thanks thorwil19:10
thorwilnp19:11
bencrisford1is preferred format png or jpg thorwil?19:13
bencrisford1because if necessary I can change19:14
SiDipng19:14
thorwilright19:14
bencrisford1damn :P19:14
SiDiI wish i had a photo camera :/ There is a wonderful place at ~30 kilometers from here which would be a perfect photo wallpaper :p19:14
bencrisford1ill change when i get the chance, but for now if I upload a jpg is that ok?19:15
thorwilSiDi, lend one19:15
thorwilbencrisford1, sure19:15
SiDithorwil: i'll try to :p19:15
SiDior if i find a good job i'll buy one at the end of the summer19:15
bencrisford1thorwil, SiDi: I need your advice19:19
bencrisford1for a name: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Karmic/Backgrounds?action=AttachFile&do=view&target=karmic-background.jpg19:19
bencrisford1what would you name it?19:19
bencrisford1I thought perhaps something like 'Wisdom'19:19
thorwilbencrisford1, that will do19:19
bencrisford1(and yes I know it needs alot of work, but thats my starting point, it will get better i hope)19:19
thorwilbencrisford1, you're using a freely licensed image of a koala?19:21
bencrisford1thorwil: Perhaps I should check :S19:23
thorwilyeah19:23
thorwilbencrisford1, you have to be careful with placing important stuff so close to the edge, as some of it might be clipped off if the wallpaper is used with another aspect ratio19:24
bencrisford1thorwil: I don't know where the picture was originally uploaded to the web so I don't know how its licensed19:24
bencrisford1important stuff...  hmm, well providing no more than an inch is cut off19:25
bencrisford1the head'll be there19:25
bencrisford1and it captures the wallpaper well19:25
thorwilbencrisford1, clipping can happen in the other direction19:26
bencrisford1all directions shouldnt effect it too badly in my opinion19:27
bencrisford1but i might have a look at that19:27
thorwil1440 x 900, that is 8:519:27
thorwilthere are both taller and wider aspects in use19:27
bencrisford1I can scale it for other sizes19:27
* bencrisford1 tries to track down the webmaster of the site he got the picture off...19:28
thorwilbencrisford1, if it gets packaged, it will be a single size (most likely) ...19:28
bencrisford1oh :/19:28
thorwili made the templates at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Documentation/Backgrounds#Template19:28
thorwilfor this reason19:28
bencrisford1so I havent done a sterling job then :P19:28
thorwilbencrisford1, don't worry19:29
thorwilbencrisford1, it's all fine if you make each mistake only once ;)19:30
bencrisford1well its my first main contribution really :P19:30
bencrisford1ive been getting a sore arse from sitting on the fence19:30
bencrisford1so i decided to get involved19:30
bencrisford1:)19:30
bencrisford1shall I put a little notice somewhere that im trying to find out the licensing of the photo, but its not confirmed yet?19:31
bencrisford1or shall i not put add my submission19:31
bencrisford1until its sorted19:31
thorwilyes19:31
thorwilwait until it's sorted19:32
bencrisford1not add my submission? :(19:32
SiDibencrisford1: by the way19:32
SiDiplease dont use custom fonts when sending mails to the ML ;P19:32
thorwilbencrisford1, please undersatnd that we have to be carful about copyright/licensing19:32
bencrisford1I do understand19:33
bencrisford1SiDi: Ah, sorry about that19:33
bencrisford1I use yahoo for the ML19:33
bencrisford1and i dont post much19:33
bencrisford1Yahoo is very annoying19:33
bencrisford1>:19:33
SiDiwell, its always weird to have one mail with a different font in the middle of the digest :)19:33
* bencrisford1 didnt mean to :P19:33
SiDiwhen i began posting to MLs, i switched to gmail to get an ad-free webmail19:33
bencrisford1yahoo is weird like that19:34
SiDiBut i'm still doing a lot of crap : posting with a Re : digest subject, or even worse, answering to people instead of the whole list19:34
thorwilthe digest is evil19:34
SiDiyeh, but its even more evil to have tons of mails to read when im internet-less for 2 days19:35
thorwilSiDi, how about having all list mail sorted in a folder? as good as a digest, without the Subject issue19:36
SiDithorwil: i actually use filters to label the emails19:37
SiDibut im just upset by the amount of mails when i dont have digests, eventho i removed the digest mode for most of my mls19:37
bencrisford1SiDi: I use gmail alot too now19:37
bencrisford1but mainly evolution19:37
bencrisford1brb19:37
SiDibencrisford1: i wish i could use a mail client ;)19:38
SiDiseriously, they should kickban from opendesktop.org the guy who posted 82 ugly X11 icon themes in 10 days, all converted from customizeyourwindowscrap.com with a damn script19:39
SiDixfce-look turned into crappywindowsiconthemes-look.org because of him19:39
Viper550so for this other distro, I'm trying to aim at a 7-like look for our KDE 4 desktop21:02
SiDii honnestly dont find it that fantastic21:08
SiDithe window's transparency is sexy, the panel too, but the icons are really ugli-ish21:08
Viper550Ark Linux specifically. We're kinda trying to regen for KDE 4 - dumping Kynaptic and such21:09
Viper550we REALLY wanna use kpackagekit21:14

Viper550we're plotting out kinda a "calm before the" and "storm" themes for Ark Linux on KDE 422:53
Viper550so for Ark Linux, I was kinda thinking about a thunderstorm motif for our kde 4 desktop23:37
SiDii dont think you'll find many KDE4 fans here honnestly23:56
