SiDii dont even know what ark linux is00:00
SiDithe last kde distro i wanted to try appeared to have an EULA00:00
SiDii didnt read it, i deleted the iso and vm virtual disk immediately00:00
Viper550http://arklinux.org/ RPM-based, but uses APT00:01
Viper550base install is pretty much kdebase and such on a disk00:01
Viper550we have few gtk components in our repos00:04
BHSPitMonkeyViper550, *why* rpm-based?00:09
BHSPitMonkeyYou better have a good reason.00:09
Viper550bero thinks its easier to make RPM packages00:09
BHSPitMonkeywtf00:09
Viper550but hey we have apt00:10
BHSPitMonkeyI know it's exciting and all, but is there a real point to spinning off a new distro?00:10
BHSPitMonkeyYou're just contributing to FOSS pollution00:11
Viper550I didn't start it...I'm just plotting out for KDE 400:11
BHSPitMonkeyOh, and by the way... This is an Ubuntu channel :)00:12
Viper550I know...but, first release of Ark predated Kubuntu's first by a few months00:12
Viper550*a month00:13
Viper550we were kinda thinking of having 2 main themes, a dark and light idea00:15
kwwiire00:18
SiDikwwii: not gone bed ?00:19
kwwiiSiDi: I am a kde member since it began, official and all00:19
kwwiiSiDi: nope, they just closed the bar :p00:19
SiDiahahah00:19
kwwiiSiDi: ie. I am responsible for oxygen and such00:19
kwwiicrystal before that, etc00:19
SiDihow do u find time for ubuntu stuff then ? :P00:19
kwwiilol, since ubuntu I don't have much time for it anymore00:20
kwwiiI worked at suse for 7 years before this00:20
kwwiian d my first 1.5 years at canonical were working on kubuntu00:20
Viper550so I had this idea, two styles; a sort of "calm before the storm" theme, and a theme of "the" storm00:20
SiDikwwii: how old are you ? :P00:20
kwwiiold, I have been working for linux for 11 years and before that I owned 3 restaurants, and before that I wwas a civil engineer designing toxic waste landfills00:21
kwwiibut I am only 38 :)00:21
SiDiwow :p00:24
SiDibtw, i refreshed xfwm themes for dust, dust sand and new wave00:25
SiDigot an impression one too but it definately needs polishing00:26
SiDiany chance we get these in community-themes ?00:26
Viper550SiDi, http://bayimg.com/image/eaponaabp.jpg01:03
SiDinice wallpaper01:07
Viper550might not be the actual wallpaper, but the colors are pretty sure01:07

shadeslayerhi08:46
shadeslayercan anyone help me create a icon theme similar to the one here : http://gaia.customize.org/08:46
shadeslayerjust point me to a tool which does everything for me ;) i just feed it the icons and it creates a theme08:47
ryanpriorshadeslayer: You'll want to look at existing icon themes and the freedesktop.org standard for icon themes. There is no plug-and-play program right now, but we do have build scripts for icon themes that makes things significantly easier.08:54
ryanpriorshadeslayer: You'll have to learn a little bit of hacking, but it's totally doable.08:54
shadeslayerryanprior: yeah....i can manage basic things like a custom gtkrc08:54
ryanpriorshadeslayer: If you're interested in building a theme, I would suggest first getting involved in our effort to build the Breathe icon set. It's in progress and we welcome new contributors. You can learn how the Breathe build system works and how a theme is put together, and then you'll have the mojo necessary to build your own.08:56
shadeslayerok...can i join next  month after the 20th....exams on right now08:56
ryanpriorshadeslayer: If you'd like to get updates in the mean-time feel free to join our mailing list.08:58
shadeslayerryanprior: ok , link please :)08:58
ryanpriorshadeslayer: read topic. ;-)08:59
shadeslayerryanprior: k subscribing...08:59
