[01:36] <Turl> knome: hi :)
[01:37] <knome> hello Turl
[01:37] <knome> what's up?
[01:37] <Turl> knome: I did the animation with text - and it doesn't break heh :P
[01:37] <knome> okay. will you show it? ;)
[01:37] <Turl> but well, the font is 200k... quite big :P
[01:37] <Turl> knome: http://labs.turl.com.ar/animcount/slide.html
[01:38] <knome> Turl, some of the text fading out/in isn't working properly
[01:38] <Turl> in which way?
[01:39] <knome> it's bit hard to explain. and now that i look at it again, the effect is gone
[01:39] <Turl> it's because of the low fps I've set
[01:40] <Turl> I know the problem, putting more fps in the animation should fix it
[01:40] <knome> anyway, i think this is an ok solution as well, but with the slider rime made with the "picture texts", the text is even better looking
[01:41] <knome> the overall feel is also a bit different for both of those sliders
[01:41] <knome> both good :)
[01:42] <Turl> yep :)
[01:42] <knome> did you use some framework?
[01:43] <Turl> yep, mootools
[01:43] <knome> okay
[01:43] <Turl> look at the page source, there's very little code
[01:43] <knome> yeah
[01:43] <knome> but i think that's what makes the final difference
[01:43] <knome> a framework is great for bigger things but for this kind of little things... i'm not sure if it's so useful
[01:44] <knome> okay, it can be useful, but it brings some overhead
[01:44] <Turl> The framework is just 20KB, I guess your images weight similar
[01:44] <knome> but you are using the font ;)
[01:44] <knome> we don't need the font file
[01:44] <Turl> the font in my slide is the heaviest, yeah :P 250+KB
[01:44] <knome> also the problem with some fonts is their licensing
[01:45] <knome> because you really should not put them available in any way
[01:46] <Turl> these fonts are opensource
[01:47] <knome> yeah, but when we are talking larger scale :)
[01:50] <Turl> if you disable javascript and load http://labs.turl.com.ar/animcount/slide.html it's suppoused to show the static image
[01:50] <Turl> that feature is a must in my opinion, knome
[01:51] <Turl> does yours have it? we can add it I guess if it doesn't
[01:51] <knome> uh, i think it has
[01:51] <knome> if it doesn't, we'll add it tomorrow with rime
[01:51] <Turl> cool
[01:51] <knome> we did it on the jaunty countdown banner so it's no big deal
[01:52] <Turl> knome: you did the jaunty banner? nice :)
[01:53] <knome> thorwil did the artwork and rime did the js, i was working with them (mostly css stuff) to get the best possible result, as this time
[01:53] <Turl> knome: http://labs.turl.com.ar/jauntybanner/banner.htm :P
[01:53] <knome> mm
[01:56] <Turl> well, I need to go, it's late and I have classes tomorrow
[01:56] <knome> hah, it's 4am ;)
[01:56] <knome> i suppose i need to get up in 5 hours from now
[01:56] <knome> anyway, good night
[01:56] <knome> i'm still cleaning up places a bit :P
[01:57] <Turl> here is 10pm :P
[01:58] <Turl> not *that* late, but I'm tired and I have classes tomorrow :P
[01:58] <knome> heh
[01:59] <Turl> just came from the english class, I'm preparing for CAE, I'm sitting later this year
[02:00] <knome> :)
[04:54] <newz2000> hi rime, knome: needs to be a lot faster still... (looking at http://markus.alshain.fi/markus/deve/slider/slider03.html )
[04:54] <newz2000> Takes 20 seconds to realize it's about Ubuntu
[04:55] <newz2000> There's not much text so you can really zip it by.
[09:19] <knome> newz2000, okay...
[17:18] <rugby471> newz2000: what email do you want me to send the files for the banner to?
[17:18] <rugby471> newz2000: pm me if you wish
[17:18] <newz2000> hey rugby471: can you just attach them to the wiki?
[17:19] <newz2000> you can put them in a zip or tgz file and attach them as one file
[17:20] <newz2000> Or use a bzr branch in launchpad if that's easier for you. Both are equally easy for me.
[17:42] <rugby471> newz2000: ok, they are in a bazaar branch here - https://code.launchpad.net/~rugby471/+junk/ubuntu-countdown-910
[17:42] <rugby471> newz2000: I have included a version with a glow and the original (without)
[17:43] <rugby471> newz2000: it is your call to which set is better :-)
[17:43] <newz2000> thanks rugby471, that's going above and beyond. :-)
[17:43] <newz2000> How about attribution? Do you have a blog or web page you'd like me to link to?
[17:43] <rugby471> newz2000: ah yes nearly forgot
