_MMA_ | macvr: Dude. I'm diggin' nm-signal-100 v.3. | 16:43 |
---|---|---|
macvr | _MMA_: :) finally ! | 16:43 |
_MMA_ | I like that fat little bottom piece. | 16:43 |
_MMA_ | haha. :P | 16:43 |
_MMA_ | We'll see about the shadow as some will complain. But it's a minor quibble. | 16:44 |
macvr | yeah i thought of the bottom, made no sense in having the antennae , when it is not going to be clear | 16:44 |
macvr | _MMA_: what shadow? | 16:45 |
macvr | the black? bottom line? | 16:45 |
_MMA_ | The ground one. | 16:45 |
macvr | if people dont like it , we can remove it | 16:45 |
_MMA_ | macvr: I'll make you a deal. You get the base set done, with 1 round of comments and maybe edits to address issues I'll make sure these hit the .5 release that goes into the archive. | 16:47 |
macvr | this is a beter icon than the first version. it has better padding. | 16:47 |
macvr | _MMA_: ok... DEAL :) | 16:47 |
_MMA_ | macvr: I want you to play with how the signal strength is displayed though. One idea I had was to start with your green color and go up in opacity or just the strength of green. | 16:49 |
_MMA_ | ie: | 16:49 |
_MMA_ | Start with 25% green, then 50, 70 and then 100. | 16:49 |
_MMA_ | Something like that. | 16:49 |
macvr | that wont be clear... it will just become semi-transparent ... i dont think it would look good | 16:50 |
_MMA_ | Im not explaining it right. Ill grab yours and show you. | 16:51 |
macvr | ok | 16:51 |
_MMA_ | Damn. This thing is complex. | 16:54 |
macvr | ;p | 16:55 |
_MMA_ | macvr: Basically, if the final arc is 100% green it would descend from there 'till it looked like your nm-signal-75 does at the top. Kinda flipped. | 16:56 |
_MMA_ | But instead of all green or all gray, it would be % of green. | 16:56 |
_MMA_ | I know that still sounds odd. | 16:56 |
Cimi | blue is better | 16:57 |
Cimi | imho | 16:57 |
macvr | you mean shades of green? dark green 100%, light green 50%? | 16:57 |
Cimi | because red/green is usually recognized for temp (cpu temp) or errors | 16:58 |
Cimi | blue remembers air, sky (wifi) | 16:58 |
_MMA_ | macvr: Shades! Damn. I need some rest. :P In the end, it's just an idea. If you got that base 5 done with a similar motif to what you have, that would be fine. | 16:58 |
macvr | _MMA_: but doing it in shades will not be very easy visual indicator.... another factor is , finding the right shade of green for different panel colors ,dark shade would not be visible in dark panels | 17:00 |
macvr | and so on | 17:00 |
_MMA_ | macvr: Don't worry too much about it (just keep it in mind) as we can't plan for every use case. | 17:01 |
macvr | _MMA_: i'll try it though... i'll see how it works | 17:02 |
_MMA_ | Sure. If it's trouble, forget about it. No use on spending too much time on something that doesn't work. | 17:03 |
macvr | yup | 17:03 |
macvr | Cimi: well blue is used right now... so wanted to try something different... but maybe for version 2.0 of breathe we could go back to blue :) | 17:04 |
_MMA_ | macvr: For now, I'm gonna nix the ones there currently. I'm doing a bit of cleanup. Post to the list once you have the 5 of them done. Give a nice shot of the 5 of them together. | 17:04 |
_MMA_ | Green/blue. I'm not chuffed either way. Though Cimi has a point. | 17:05 |
macvr | _MMA_: ok... just dont remove the attachments | 17:05 |
_MMA_ | np | 17:05 |
_MMA_ | macvr: You clean them up once we're final. | 17:05 |
macvr | sure | 17:05 |
macvr | np | 17:05 |
SiDi | macvr: kudos on v3 | 17:07 |
SiDi | i like that shape | 17:07 |
macvr | SiDi: thanx :) | 17:07 |
macvr | SiDi: _MMA_ : actually i had done that shape a long time ago, but got tied up with emblems and only now i got to it | 17:08 |
macvr | also smileys! | 17:08 |
macvr | well... i'll upload the set tomorrow :) | 17:09 |
_MMA_ | Cleaned up to reflect new uploads. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/BreatheIconSet/Submissions | 17:10 |
_MMA_ | macvr: We're going to freeze this weekend to prep for the .50 release. Which I hope to get out July 6th. | 17:11 |
_MMA_ | We're going to have a mass review and some testing. | 17:11 |
macvr | _MMA_: i got tied up in papercuts ! that thing is a huge mess! but definitely by tomorrow this time it is sure to be done... or it that too late ? | 17:13 |
_MMA_ | Naa, naa. Plenty of time. As long as I get it by, say Tuesday I'll upload. | 17:13 |
macvr | Ok... :) | 17:14 |
_MMA_ | Things I know for sure won't need any review/fixes/whatever (usually Sebastien's submissions) I'll usually make an exception for. | 17:14 |
macvr | _MMA_: whats the problem with emblem-important? | 17:16 |
macvr | _MMA_: also, is this shape ok for emblem-default> http://files.getdropbox.com/u/1325768/emblem-default1.png | 17:17 |
macvr | I'v done only for the 128,48px , but just to check | 17:18 |
_MMA_ | Not feelin' that. | 17:18 |
_MMA_ | emblem-important I guess is fine. | 17:18 |
* _MMA_ looks again. | 17:18 | |
_MMA_ | macvr: I think the fact that is has a shine on it that accentuates the edge where the others don't is my issue. | 17:19 |
_MMA_ | macvr: Little inconsistencies like that are why we're having the review. | 17:20 |
macvr | you dont want the shine? | 17:20 |
macvr | i can remove it | 17:21 |
macvr | _MMA_: i also wanted to ask... am i doing the labelling right ? within the layers? or are you to do it all over again? | 17:21 |
_MMA_ | No. As it's a touch alot of the others don't have. And If I've uploaded anything that does, we'll have to fix. | 17:21 |
macvr | ok , i'll remove the shine | 17:21 |
_MMA_ | macvr: It's been correct so far. folder/icon_name should be correct. Every once in a while there's a hickup. Everyone does it. It's ok. | 17:22 |
macvr | :) | 17:22 |
macvr | _MMA_: the emblem-default.. check mark like the one Daniel has done? is that ok? | 17:24 |
macvr | Daniel's >apps/checkbox | 17:25 |
_MMA_ | macvr: That's 1 thing artists need to keep a sharp eye on. When tackling a subset of the whole. Consistency. Shadows, shine, line width. Stuff like that. | 17:26 |
_MMA_ | Lemmie look up his icon. | 17:26 |
_MMA_ | Hmm... I'm unsure where it is. | 17:27 |
macvr | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/BreatheIconSet/Submissions?action=AttachFile&do=view&target=checkbox.png | 17:28 |
macvr | _MMA_: ^ | 17:28 |
_MMA_ | Ahh... | 17:28 |
_MMA_ | Well, try it. We | 17:29 |
_MMA_ | gah | 17:29 |
_MMA_ | We'll see how it works. | 17:29 |
macvr | Ok... | 17:29 |
_MMA_ | Ok. I'm gonna write some emails then go enjoy the rest of my Saturday outside. Later. | 17:30 |
SiDi | see you _MMA_ | 17:30 |
macvr | anyone knows what the default size of the panel is? | 20:46 |
artir | 25 pixels tall | 20:50 |
macvr | thanx :) | 20:51 |
