[00:00] <_MMA_> psyke83: So you have anything else going on other than "Humanity"?
[00:01] <psyke83> _MMA_, nothing else. I'm not even sure what possessed me to look at the theme again ;)
[00:01] <_MMA_> We all gotta tinker. :P
[00:02]  * _MMA_ is gonna go watch "Mythbusters" and watch them blow up a scale model of the Hindenburg. bbl
[00:37] <Viper550> I remember that Xubuntu usplash we had when we first put it in...the kubuntu one with an X crossed in and a crudly drawn mouse in it
[10:31] <geek_ubuntu>  
[10:32] <geek_ubuntu> Quick question for creating wallpapers for ubuntu do they have to have the colors orange and brown
[10:32] <geek_ubuntu> ?
[10:36] <thorwil> geek_ubuntu, no
[10:36] <geek_ubuntu> well somebody told me they did
[10:36] <geek_ubuntu> lastnight
[10:37] <geek_ubuntu> please could you have a look at the wallpaper i made that this person said would not be accepted
[10:37] <thorwil> sure
[10:37] <geek_ubuntu> thanks
[10:38] <geek_ubuntu> do you want me to send you the image file? or upload to tiny pic?
[10:39] <thorwil> i'd suggest http://www.piccdrop.com/
[10:39] <geek_ubuntu> okay will do
[10:39] <geek_ubuntu> 1 min
[10:40] <geek_ubuntu> here you go http://pic.piccdrop.com/i/c/1243244399.png
[10:41] <geek_ubuntu> i need to make the text more brighter i think?
[10:44] <geek_ubuntu> what you think?
[10:44] <thorwil> geek_ubuntu, looks like you squashed the logo and text. never do that
[10:44] <geek_ubuntu> ok
[10:44] <thorwil> but having the logo and "ubuntu" text on backgrounds isn't that great an idea
[10:45] <geek_ubuntu> as there are already enough? i get it thanks
[10:45] <thorwil> right
[10:46] <thorwil> it looks like a sign of insecurity to shout out ubuntu in that way
[10:46] <geek_ubuntu> so try to avoid using the ubuntu yecy
[10:46] <geek_ubuntu> ubuntu logo
[10:46] <thorwil> yes
[10:46] <geek_ubuntu> will do thanks for the answers
[10:47] <thorwil> while it's fine, even much needed, imho, to explore other colors than brown and orange, you should still think about what ubuntu stands for.
[10:47] <geek_ubuntu> some guy name kn100 said the colours had to be orange and brown
[10:47] <geek_ubuntu> ok thanks
[10:47] <thorwil> geek_ubuntu, have a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Karmic/Backgrounds
[10:47] <geek_ubuntu> so basically make it open attractive and clean?
[10:48] <thorwil> using brown and orange might improve the chances of being used, but Mark Shuttleworth himself said that other options shall be considered for karmic koala
[10:49] <thorwil> geek_ubuntu, check https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Documentation/Briefing and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Documentation/Message
[10:51] <geek_ubuntu> i going for creating abstract walllpapers
[11:26] <geek_ubuntu> how is this for an abstract wallpaper i made for ubuntu http://pic.piccdrop.com/i/c/1243247179.jpg
[11:27] <geek_ubuntu> what you think
[11:27] <geek_ubuntu> ?
[11:27] <knome> maybe too abstract for general usage, but it's not bad.
[11:27] <geek_ubuntu> thanks
[11:27] <knome> the colors are quite bright and lively for a background
[11:28] <knome> i like the middle top section
[11:28] <geek_ubuntu> i know the colurs wer slightly lower but i sharpened it so they stand out more
[11:28] <geek_ubuntu> shall i upload the unsharpened image
[11:28] <knome> yeah - but you don't want *back*ground to stand out ;)
[11:28] <geek_ubuntu> okay 1 min
[11:31] <andreasn> geek_ubuntu, in a odd way it reminds me of MDK ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MDK_(video_game) )
[11:31] <knome> andreasn, you are correct :P
[11:31] <knome> the left and right side remind me of an audi (car)
[11:33] <geek_ubuntu> here's the unsharpened version http://pic.piccdrop.com/i/c/1243247619.jpg
[11:35] <geek_ubuntu> there is a slight difference in colour
[11:35] <geek_ubuntu> do you think its still alright with using this unsharpened version?
[11:36] <knome> i personally would not use that as background
[11:36] <knome> but as i said, it's not bad.
[11:36] <geek_ubuntu> how is it for the vast majority of people who like detail?
[11:38] <geek_ubuntu> can i post this on the ubuntu forums to see what other people think?
[11:38] <geek_ubuntu> if so which version? sharpened or unsharpened?
[11:39] <geek_ubuntu> should i post?
[11:39] <geek_ubuntu> .
[11:40] <geek_ubuntu> ?
[11:45] <geek_ubuntu> speak later
[12:15] <thorwil> geek_ubuntu, welcome back. i think the not sharpened version is nicer. in both cases, the center part with the thin swirls is the best part. just something like that on the whole area could be really nice
[13:08] <elky> i prefer the unsharpened version too
[13:15] <SiDi> hey people
[13:15] <SiDi> _MMA_: you wrote inherit Humah instead of Human for Breathe rev43
[13:16] <SiDi> hope you change it before release
[13:18] <_MMA_> SiDi: Fixed. Thanx. Pull rev.45
[13:18] <SiDi> i fixed it manually on my side :)
[13:18] <SiDi> knome: you around ?
[13:20] <_MMA_> Damn. Means I gotta fix the .tar also.
[13:33] <_MMA_> *Fixed
[13:34] <SiDi> okey:)
