natewiebe13okay.. if you want i'll let you know if anything changes (im updating right now)13:54
SiDinatewiebe13, yeh but the floor is a grid-like floor so if your artwork is tight, it might fall below and not get picked!13:59

mat_tthorwil: I'll leave picking to Ken this time I guess ;)14:06
SiDimat_t, see, he's so evil that he waited for you to answer for leaving just before !14:07
SiDiThat phrase doesn't make sense in English.14:07
mat_tSiDi: bugger, indeed14:07

kwwii_;)14:54
=== robsta is now known as robsta-afk
FLOZzHello all  _o/17:18
mac_vandreasn_: hi... small doubt , how do i convert a several svg to a gif animation?17:49
andreasn_are you sure you want a gif? perhaps better to go for a apng?17:49
=== andreasn_ is now known as andreasn
mac_vapng ? hmm or did you mean png?17:50
andreasnapng, I wonder if we can render those though, or if that's only gecko17:50
andreasnthe way we did the spinner and some animations in packagekit is to do still frames in a grid17:51
mac_vandreasn: this is for software store , there seems to want to do it like firefox , not want but one person is contributing to the code using firefox's method , which uses gif17:51
mac_vs/there seems/they seem17:52
mac_vi think nautilus way of using png would be better? wouldnt it?17:52
andreasnwell, both methods work17:52
andreasngif puts a 256 indexed color limit upon you17:53
mac_v;) or should i say easier for me to do ;p17:53
mac_vgif ah ha.. right i forgot17:53
andreasnah, right. Firefox used to do throbber.gif, but for 3.0+ it uses /toolkit/themes/gnomestripe/global/icons/loading_16.png17:56
andreasnanyway, that requires support for animated png's17:56
andreasndrifting off, sorry17:56
andreasnthe way I would do it is to export the stills from Inkscape and then put them together in GIMP17:57
mac_vthat was what i was thinking , of doing17:57
andreasnif you want to do a apng, there is a firefox extension that can create those17:58
* mac_v googles17:59
mac_vandreasn: does firefox 3.0 use apng or ...? i'm asking because the image is labeled .png18:05
andreasnyes, it's called png, but it's animated18:05
andreasnit's the throbber that animates when you're loading a page18:05
mac_vandreasn: ah... thanx i suggest it to rugby , i always wondered how the png was throbbing ;)18:06
mac_vandreasn: was this the addon you mentioned? https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5519 or it there a better one?18:08
andreasnyes, that's the one18:08
andreasnbut it's not that good :/18:08
mac_vandreasn: thanx again :)18:08
mac_vandreasn: huh? , then how do i get a good output?18:09
andreasnoh, it works, but it's a bit hard to work with some times18:09
andreasnbut it does the trick18:09
mac_vhehe... i'll test it then18:10
FLOZzBye19:37
natewiebe13anyone know whats going on with todays art drop?20:12
natewiebe13xsplash was updated.. it looks good besides the throbber moving in the wrong direction.. and after i changed the background20:16
