dashuaAll drawn with murrine.00:31
kwwiidashua: wow, that is interesting00:32
dashuaI can't get more handles like the pixmap.00:33
kwwiidashua: yeah, and the arrows are not exactly what we want...we are planning to add button looking bits to that00:34
kwwiibut it is a good idea not to use the pixmap engine ;)00:34
andreasnkwwii, found it the other day when looking for the first monocrome icon set00:34
kwwiiandreasn: hehe, cool00:35
dashuakwwii, Yeah, I can't seem to set the steppers outside.00:36
kwwiidashua: it looks promising though, I'd like to see the scrollbars a bit whiter though00:37
dashuaOk00:37
kwwiiup until a couple of days ago we had differnt scrollbars ;)00:37
dashuaReally?00:37
dashuaPixmaps?00:37
kwwiilol, yepp00:37
kwwiiyes00:37
kwwiibut very quite different from the current version00:38
kwwiilol, very/quite00:38
dashuaThey are nice, you just get stuck with the one color though.00:38
kwwiidashua: it should be easy to change the color of the progress bars with murrine00:44
dashuahttp://www.ubuntu-pics.de/bild/45473/screenshot_004_ZqtCFv.png00:44
dashuaThis looks pretty good00:44
kwwiidashua: oooh, nice00:44
kwwiiyou have to send me the gtkrc ;)00:45
dashuaCan I branch light-themes?00:45
dashuaI don't see any option for it.00:45
kwwiiyes, but it is not in it's final place in bzr00:45
dashuaI keep junking it for now.00:45
dashuaAh ok00:45
kwwiiso put in your lp and point me to it ;)00:45
dashuaSure00:46
kwwiizacbarton also fixed the win deco buttons just now ;)00:46
dashuaI haven't done Radiance yet00:46
dashuaAwesome00:46
kwwiiwhat a good way to end the week ;)00:46
dashuaAre you solid with no gradients in the toolbar?00:46
kwwiihonestly, yes00:47
dashuaOk np00:47
kwwiigood stuff though, I'll show it to my colleagues and see what they think00:47
dashuaOk cool, I'll get a branch up00:48
dashuajunk00:48
dashuaThx00:48
kwwiiit is a bit different from our original design but doing it with murrine is much nicer00:48
kwwiiand for now at least, we have to live with what we have ;)00:48
dashuaYeah, I removed the pixmaps in Dust too00:48
kwwiinow I know what Cimi meant yesterday00:49
kwwii:p00:49
dashuaIt's nice what you can control.00:49
kwwiiindeed00:49
dashuaI see mat_t filed a bug for the border_shade and colors00:49
dashuaThat's very easy to do with murrine, rather than making a new image00:49
kwwiihrm, I wonder what he didn't just tell me ;)00:50
dashuaHehe00:50
kwwiioh well, time for sleep00:51
kwwiigotta get up in 5 hours00:51
dashuaNite mate00:54
dashuaI'll clean this up and branch it.00:54
kwwiidashua: cheers, g'night00:56
mrmcq2ukwii , dashua what do you guys think of the toolbars in this mockup : http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_FJH0hYZmVtc/S5EIP0sxDaI/AAAAAAAAGRM/Mhjgn5A0gnE/s1600-h/Banshee_RythmBox_Re_Imagined_by_fibermarupok.jpg01:56
zniavredashua, your theme is wonderfull02:16
psyke83hi, I submitted a page to the Incoming/Lucid wiki. The thumbnails are 800x600, is that ok? When you create a new page, the source tells you to use 600px, but the SubmissionGuidelins page says 300px (which I only noticed afterwards)09:54
thorwilpsyke83: shouldn't be the case09:58
thorwilpsyke83: where exactly does it say that?09:59
psyke83https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/SubmissionGuidelines09:59
psyke83"Don't include large images in the page directly. Rather use small versions of maximal 300 pixels height and link to the full size image."09:59
psyke83hmm...10:01
psyke83I can't find the recommendation about 600px now, one sec10:01
psyke83ah I was mistaken, it says 300 pixels in both locations10:02
psyke83I should resize, then, or is it not so strict?10:02
thorwilpsyke83: it said height in one case and width in the other, though. now it's both width10:03
thorwilpsyke83: when i put the 300 px width in, i was mainly thinking about wallpaper pages, where we had a lot of thumbnails10:04
psyke83well the submission is a gtk theme, so seeing the widgets in the thumb is ideal10:04
psyke83should I change it? here it is: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Lucid/Dichotomy10:05
thorwilpsyke83: no, it's alright10:05
psyke83ok10:05
thorwilpsyke83: seeing how the 300px thing just sucks for themes, i changed it to 800 px in both places10:09
psyke83thorwil: that seems reasonable... most screens run at 1024x768 at minimum, with exception to the smaller netbooks and mobile devices10:10
psyke83(and really, why would you use a mobile to view the art wiki? heh)10:10
thorwilkwwii: moin! did you guys manage to decide on final orange and aubergine values yesterday?10:14
thorwilsome hilarious motu shit: http://ihavethepowerart.blogspot.com/2010/01/under-influence-masters-of-universe.html10:57
* thorwil vanishes in a dramatic gesture to get lunch10:58
zacbartonpsyke83: Dichotomy looks very nice11:15
psyke83zacbarton: thanks11:15
zacbartonpsyke83: i like the use of the purple in the scrollbars. i think it works well11:16
psyke83zacbarton: yes, I was surprised by that (though undoubtedly the wallpaper helps give this impression)11:17
zacbartonpsyke83: do you have plans to continue working on it? if so what's next?11:18
zacbartonpsyke83: ofcourse dont answer if your rather supprise us all11:18
psyke83zacbarton: well, the next step is to refine everything, and clean up the code (that's not something a user cares about)11:19
zacbartonpsyke83: true but its worth doing id say. clean on the inside = clean on the outside11:20
psyke83yep11:22
psyke83gotta run, see you all later11:23
dashuaMorning15:11
rippsI was thinking of making a modified version of those animated xml wallpapers, but it pulls it's transistion information by pulling the sunrise/sunset time from weather.com,etc.15:17
rippsIs that possible?15:17

merbithello artwork-ians :) I am puzzled by a paragraph of the upcoming new font license, perhaps someone can make it clear for me: http://pastebin.com/LsLWMygt -- thanks in advance20:57
merbitoh.. if there's a different channel where I should ask this question, please mention it20:58
thorwilmerbit: there's practically no presence of the designers working at canonical here21:00
thorwilmerbit: as it is weekend and late (london time)21:00
merbitargh.. true, thanks!21:00
thorwilmerbit: fonts really need special licenses21:01
thorwilmerbit: there's GPL with font exception, for example21:01
thorwilor the sil open font license21:02
thorwilmerbit: canonical has the lawyers to craft a custom license, though, i guess21:02
thorwilmerbit: so wait and see ;)21:02
merbitwell, personally I wouldn't mind, whatever the license, only to be free enough to allow its redistribution :)21:03
