[02:22] <akgraner> I am bummed after my last update I now have none of my chat settings and stuff in empathy
[02:22] <akgraner> dang
[02:22] <IdleOne> akgraner: anything major broken?
[02:23] <akgraner> nope  - just all the social from the start stuff
[02:23] <akgraner> hmm brb let me check something
[02:23] <IdleOne> ok won't affect me much then
[02:30] <akgraner> other than all my account settings needing to be added to empathy and qwibber everything seems to be fine
[02:30] <akgraner> well other than when gwibber open now I get like 17 windows that open at once
[02:30] <akgraner> all gwibber
[02:32] <Pendulum> that's still annoying, though
[02:32] <akgraner> yeah no kidding  :-(
[02:32] <akgraner> and I just had to kill gwibber
[02:32] <akgraner> b/c it keeps trying to open and when it does it pops up 5 more windows
[02:33] <Pendulum> :(
[02:35] <akgraner> I just asked in -devel if anyone else was having this issue
[02:36] <akgraner> but at least gwibber isn't making my CPU run hot now
[02:40] <akgraner> well I need to go file a bug they haven't heard of this one
[02:40]  * akgraner goes to find my notes on how to file a bug
[02:42] <IdleOne> ubuntu-bug packagename
[02:43] <akgraner> yep  - :-)
[02:43] <akgraner> I just like to make sure my notes are correct and see if I have to tweak them for different issues - in case someone asks me how to file a bug
[02:44] <akgraner> all that good stuff
[02:48] <Pendulum> akgraner: were you a girlscout?
[02:48] <Pendulum> (the whole always prepared thing ;-) )
[02:48] <akgraner> Pendulum, um yeah, and in 4-h, oh I think the Army did that to me
[02:48] <Pendulum> heh
[02:50] <akgraner> I try  - but I am not always prepare :-/
[04:16] <elky> akgraner, did jono get back to you re: play day at all?
[04:16] <akgraner> has been in conferences this week
[04:16]  * elky pouts
[04:17] <akgraner> collaboration summit then something else with status.net
[04:17] <elky> we could really use his 3k twitter followers knowing about it
[04:17] <elky> akgraner, how ironic, since he's not tweeting.
[04:17] <akgraner> :-)
[04:17] <nigelb> he's not looked into the uds sprints either
[04:18] <nigelb> so I guess he'll have a truckload of work when he gets back :)
[04:18] <elky> heck, even his 1400 identi.ca followers would be useful
[04:19] <elky> err, sorry, his 4400 twitter followers :-/
[04:21] <elky> http://twitter.com/#search?q=http%3A%2F%2Ftr.im%2FVAjs and http://identi.ca/search/notice?q=http://tr.im/VAjs just really isn't enough microblog infiltration :(
[04:24] <nigelb> elky, identi.ca is sadly very low :(
[04:24] <elky> nigelb, they're both about the same
[04:25] <nigelb> so probably just the synced identi.ca accounts
[04:26] <elky> essentially yes.
[04:27] <pleia2> yeah, status.net had a hack afternoon thing after collab summit
[04:27] <nigelb> I should strong-arm my friend into guest-posting on his blog
[04:27] <nigelb> that should get us some publicity
[04:29] <nigelb> any other bright ideas to get some publicity?
[04:29] <nigelb> I have one, but no equipment or talent to make it.  A youtube video?
[04:30] <nigelb> nothing big, just a slideshow with some music would do just fine.
[04:35] <akgraner> I asked Rikki to blog about it on Monday
[05:02] <elky> how much planet noise has there been?
[05:05] <elky> Hrm. just me and the fridge
[05:05] <maco> what about the freezer?
[05:06] <akgraner> elky, yeah I am behind on the blogging :-(
[05:06] <elky> maco, i think it is preoccupied with the repositories.
[05:06] <nigelb> elky, I'll try to get a post in today or tomorrow
[05:06] <maco> good answer!
[05:08] <elky> i also just forwarded something to grrltalk
[05:08] <elky> well, the chix announcement list, actually
[05:08] <elky> also, why does my left eyebrow keep throbbing?
[05:09] <nigelb> something wicked this way comes :D
[05:09] <maco> arteries are funny like that?
[05:09] <elky> maco, yeah, i massaged the area and everything, it just keeps throbbing a bit and making the world shake :P
[05:10] <maco> oh world shakey? i hate that :(
[05:10] <maco> but usually for me eyebrow throbby and world shakey are two different things
[05:11] <nigelb> maco, congrats on ops in #ubuntu
[05:11] <maco> thanks but didnt you already say that in k-devel ? :P
[05:11] <nigelb> maco, I dont think that was me
[05:11] <nigelb> I just caught up on blog reading
[05:11] <maco> oh you just admonished me for asking for ops :P
[05:12] <nigelb> hehe :D
[05:12] <nigelb> Later folks.  Have a good weekend.
[07:25] <nigelb> elky, got some time?
[07:26] <nigelb> need some help from that awesome gimp-fu of yours
[07:26] <czajkowski> Morning
[07:28] <nigelb> mornin czajkowski :)
[07:29] <czajkowski> today is my ossbarcamp event
[07:29] <czajkowski> over 100 people coming
[07:31] <czajkowski> 1 speaker pulled out, the guy who runs the LPIs is stuck in uk with flights not leaving there
[07:32] <czajkowski> wonder what else could go wrong today
[07:33] <nigelb> ouch.  hope things straighten out czajkowski
[07:34] <elky> nigelb, depends how much time you need
[07:34] <nigelb> elky, I was thinking about a poster for the competition
[07:34] <nigelb> hunting through flickr for stuff that can be used with only attribution
[07:35] <nigelb> http://www.flickr.com/photos/whiteafrican/2870711774/
[07:35] <nigelb> But the apple there worries me.  Still looking.
[07:36] <czajkowski> nigelb: in google you can search for images and set the licience you want in the parameters if that helps
[07:36] <czajkowski> right better get up and moving
[07:36] <nigelb> czajkowski, thank you.  Let me try that :)
[07:36] <czajkowski> no bother
[07:37] <elky> nigelb, hhaha. http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=kids+computer&l=commderiv&ct=0&mt=all&adv=1 gives me a page that includes http://www.flickr.com/photos/deryckh/3180290726/
[07:38] <nigelb> elky, I think flickr gives priorities for your friends :)
[07:39] <nigelb> why do girl+computers search on google give me dog pictures? #fail
[07:39] <nigelb> http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/MUwnsoCPaWy4GjiQRBIiMQ looks good
[07:40] <nigelb> elky, I'm liking http://www.flickr.com/photos/msspider66/382339790/
[07:42] <elky> nigelb, a friend has wordsbycat.com that documents cat pictures she found while searching flickr for photos for photographicdictionary.com/
[07:43] <nigelb> oooh
[07:44] <elky> like, search for "saucepan" and she'd get a picture of a cat in a saucepan, or a search for sweater would find a picture of a cat on a sweater.
[07:45] <nigelb> thats extremely innovative
[07:46] <nigelb> elky, or would it be worthwhile to actually take a picture of a kid on an ubuntu laptop (without the face) and use it?
[07:46] <nigelb> perhaps an angle showing the hair and saying "this can be your kid"
[07:50] <elky> http://www.flickr.com/photos/bionicteaching/4309367785/ is nice too
[07:52] <nigelb> oooh, yes
[07:52] <elky> ugh, get to page 5 searching flickr for "girl computer" and it's girls clad in vinyl crop tops and hot shorts striking awkward poses on catwalks :(
[07:53] <nigelb> yeah i got that.. ywicr, flickr and google
[07:53] <nigelb> s/ywicr/twice :D
[07:53] <nigelb> eating and typing
[07:54] <nigelb> elky, that picture you posted from deryck is cute :)
[07:54] <nigelb> its Ubuntu too.  wish it were more clear
[07:55] <nigelb> issyl0, poke
[07:55] <czajkowski> nigelb: I'd say she's on her way to the uk event she organised
[07:56] <nigelb> czajkowski, she is organising an event? Wowww
[07:56] <czajkowski> aye
[07:56] <czajkowski> museum trip
[07:56] <nigelb> oh. cool.
[07:56] <nigelb> elky, have you noticed isabelle's twitter pic recently? ;)
[07:57] <nigelb> profile pic or whatever
[07:57] <elky> nigelb, no? I dont actually follow twitter or identica
[07:57] <AlanBell> that is from the rewired state event
[07:58] <nigelb> yup
[07:58] <nigelb> that is totally geeky and what I was looking for
[07:58] <nigelb> http://twitter.com/account/profile_image/issyl0?hreflang=en
[07:58] <nigelb> only needs her permission :)
[07:58] <AlanBell> it is actually one of the news desks of the Guardian newspaper
[07:58] <nigelb> looks comfortable
[08:02] <nigelb> elky, thoughts?
[08:03] <elky> nigelb, she looks a little older than the toddler-12 range
[08:03] <nigelb> elky, aaah
[08:04] <nigelb> In that case http://www.flickr.com/photos/msspider66/382339790/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/bionicteaching/4309367785/  http://www.flickr.com/photos/whiteafrican/2870711774/
[08:07] <nigelb> http://www.flickr.com/photos/lorda/519126516/
[08:07] <nigelb> http://www.flickr.com/photos/crimfants/297864205/
[08:08] <nigelb> what the......! okay now I get what you meant earlier elky about vinyl crop tops
[08:09] <elky> I neglected to mention the thigh-high stiletto vinyl boots
[08:09] <nigelb> and the hardly 5-inch long micro-mini skirts
[08:10] <nigelb> aw! this is so cute  vinyl crop tops
[08:10] <nigelb> http://www.flickr.com/photos/crimfants/297864205/
[08:10] <nigelb> paste fail
[08:12] <elky> http://www.flickr.com/photos/sanjoselibrary/2801519664/ would be ok if it weren't for the butt in the background
[08:13] <nigelb> yeah
[08:13] <nigelb> this one's nice http://www.flickr.com/photos/inferis/266391412/
[08:14] <nigelb> elky, http://www.flickr.com/photos/inferis/266391219/in/photostream/
[08:14] <elky> gawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
[08:14] <nigelb> that does give a very cute message :)
[08:15] <elky> already on the caffinated beverages too!
[08:15] <elky> the first one is more obviously a girl baby though
[08:16] <nigelb> the sitting beside the laptop one?
[08:16] <Tm_T> ...you really try to force me to get a pic of R doing IRC ...
[08:17] <elky> yup
[08:17] <Tm_T> with a funny hat, ofcourse, that's mandatory when in -ot
[08:18] <nigelb> elky, can you work some magic on it to get it to a poster? my artwork fu is NIL
[08:18] <elky> http://www.flickr.com/photos/olivierb/270907833/
[08:19] <elky> it's nc, but the competition isn't a commercial thing, so the poster doesn't have to be
[08:19] <akgraner> http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3653/3302455732_69cd8e34f0.jpg&imgrefurl=http://flickr.com/photos/48232840@N00/3302455732&usg=__bvpeoix-D4EFe1r-cc1FIoFcEvg=&h=375&w=500&sz=161&hl=en&start=129&sig2=TMhG6xDce32NqYrNDC5sOw&itbs=1&tbnid=0YDsWLgZ939zrM:&tbnh=98&tbnw=130&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dchildren%2BLinux%26start%3D126%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DN%26gbv%3D2%26imgtbs%3Dr%26as_rights%3D(cc_publicdomain%257Ccc_att

[08:19] <akgraner> dang that was a freakin long link
[08:19] <akgraner> sorry
[08:20] <akgraner> http://www.flickr.com/photos/48232840@N00/3302455732
[08:20] <nigelb> yeah, got there
[08:20] <nigelb> elky, ^ that would work
[08:21] <akgraner> http://www.flickr.com/photos/courosa/3004364274/
[08:21] <akgraner> that one is cute too
[08:21] <elky> http://www.flickr.com/photos/shaorang/73319425/
[08:22] <nigelb> yup.  any one of the last 4 would
[08:22] <elky> I think I can do something with that couch one... we'll see when I get home
[08:23] <nigelb> the couch one is absolute cuteness :)
[08:23] <elky> it has the whole child and the whole computer
[08:23] <nigelb> I'll mail the photographer telling that we'd like to use it
[08:23] <nigelb> not necessary, but it would be nice to alert them
[08:24] <elky> http://www.flickr.com/photos/amilianna/2336409188/ <--- *melt*
[08:24]  * nigelb melts
[08:24] <elky> couch one still wins for usability, but ^the look...
[08:24] <nigelb> the *eyes*
[08:24] <akgraner> nigelb, this was the lic attached to the pic http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.0/deed.en
[08:25] <nigelb> yeah, share-like, noncommercial, and attribution
[08:25] <nigelb> we can work with that
[08:26] <elky> nigelb, yeah the eyes/look/expression
[08:26] <elky> srs baby is srs
[08:27] <nigelb> elky, srs?
[08:27] <elky> serious
[08:27] <elky> loltalk
[08:27] <elky> srsly is seriously
[08:27]  * nigelb still types full works on txts
[08:27] <nigelb> *words
[08:28] <nigelb> akgraner, the cutiest pic is http://www.flickr.com/photos/whiteafrican/2870711774/ we' won't be using it coz of the apple ad there
[08:28] <nigelb> they're having a conference in front of the computer and everyone looks so serious :)
[08:28] <akgraner> yeah I saw that one
[08:28] <akgraner> but at my house the macs run ubuntu
[08:29] <nigelb> ha
[08:29] <akgraner> really freaks people out now with Lucid
[08:29] <nigelb> hahaha
[08:29] <nigelb> they'll totally be confused
[08:29] <elky> nigelb, yeah, srs/srsly isn't so much about the abbreviation though, as the culture ref
[08:30] <akgraner> it's a great conversation starter
[08:30] <nigelb> And the boot speed on Lucid is awesome.  Apparently.
[08:30] <akgraner> it is
[08:31] <nigelb> akgraner, by the way, its now my turn to ask "Aren't you going to bed?"
[08:31] <elky> http://www.flickr.com/photos/uhees/2097618231/ <-- OMG <3
[08:31] <akgraner> hah  - waiting on a phone call
[08:31] <akgraner> hehe
[08:32] <nigelb> O-O
[08:34] <elky> http://www.flickr.com/photos/qole/109752616/ <-- encouraging, you're doing it right.
[08:36] <nigelb> elky, akgraner: The photographer of the couch pic is an open source enthusiast from Regina, Canada.  Composing mail to him to say we'd be using that pic
[08:36] <elky> nice
[08:36] <nigelb> wow
[08:36] <elky> lets hope he's not an ubuntu hater :P
[08:36] <nigelb> Dr. Alec Couros, a professor of educational technology and media
[08:37] <akgraner> Oh that's cool!
[08:37] <Tm_T> definately Ubuntu hater then
[08:37]  * Tm_T hides
[08:38] <elky> hehe
[08:42] <nigelb> http://pad.ubuntu-uk.org/9C0NRt6lNa
[08:43] <nigelb> thoughts on the mail? (I'm not great at writing formal mails)
[08:44] <nigelb> akgraner, elky Tm_T ^
[08:45] <elky> looks fine to me.
[08:45]  * elky heads home
[08:45] <nigelb> thank you :)
[08:49] <nigelb> lol, typos :D
[09:22] <nigelb> akgraner, sent :)
[09:22] <akgraner> nigelb, Thank you!!
[09:22] <nigelb> akgraner, no problem
[09:23] <nigelb> sometimes I'm amazed by the work we get together as team :)
[09:23] <akgraner> it's awesome isn't it!
[09:23] <nigelb> yup
[09:23]  * akgraner is a fan of teamwork :-)
[09:23] <nigelb> people all have their pigeon holes and we manage to use every person's expertise :)
[09:25] <nigelb> elky, akgraner: this is how she looks now http://educationaltechnology.ca/couros/about
[09:27] <akgraner> oh cool
[09:29] <nigelb> his blog is awesome!
[09:30] <nigelb> he writes some cool stuff
[10:44] <elky> nigelb, i have 4.8mb of http://geekosophical.net/misc/eeepcgirl.png for you
[10:44] <elky> just the photo with the background cropped away so far
[10:46] <nigelb> elky, you rock!
[10:46] <nigelb> unlike my internet connection
[10:47]  * elky has a play with inkscape and potrace
[10:47] <elky> it's vectorising fairly well actually
[10:48] <nigelb> :)
[11:24] <nigelbabu> elky, I finally saw it and its absolutely beautiful :)
[11:25] <nigelbabu> I also learned that wget -c is a good idea
[11:29] <elky> hehe yeah
[11:29] <elky> you might want to alias it if you're with bad intarwebs often
[11:31] <elky> also http://educationaltechnology.ca/couros/?s=ubuntu indicates the good dr is not an ubuntu hater :P
[11:34] <nigelbabu> oh yaay!
[11:34] <nigelbabu> I mailed him and I'll let you know of his reply
[11:35] <nigelbabu> elky, oh no.  another kubuntu fan!
[11:36] <elky> i get the feeling he'll be appreciative of the email: http://educationaltechnology.ca/couros/1203
[11:36] <nigelbabu> I read that!
[11:36] <nigelbabu> and it is scary, especially as a parent.
[11:37] <elky> yeah
[11:37] <nigelbabu> I know friends who reveal photos of kids only to people that they know personally and have met physically
[11:37] <nigelbabu> because, you never know.....
[11:38] <elky> Yep, and that's exactly why we took the time with the comp
[11:41] <Pendulum> btw, since we are (I assume) going to put the photos up somewhere, have we put any thought to watermarking them (or allowing the entrants to watermark them)?
[11:42] <Pendulum> the biggest reason I know that people I know don't put photos of their kids online is because either they or someone they know have had a photo of theirs claimed by someone else
[11:43] <Pendulum> (this seems to be something that especially happens to pics of disabled kids, but I know several bloggers who it's happened to)
[11:49] <elky> Pendulum, we're hoping some of the pics will be usable by Canonical for the Ubuntu website and other purposes that are not directly commercial.
[11:49] <Pendulum> *nods*
[11:49] <elky> and in certain cases, with individual permission, used for actual commercial stuff by Canonical and members
[11:51] <elky> also, making a 128 layer vector with potrace isn't worth it.
[11:52] <elky> not on a laptop with only 2 cores and only 4g of ram, anyway
[11:53]  * nigelbabu blinks
[11:53] <nigelbabu> elky, um.. english?
[11:54] <elky> 128 pictures on top of each other. the dimensions of that photograph
[11:54] <nigelbabu> ouch
[11:54] <nigelbabu> that must take lots of space
[11:55] <elky> yeah, I didn't think it through so well
[11:55] <elky> closing inkscape gave me back 2g of ram
[11:55] <nigelbabu> so, why did you want to do that anyway?
[11:57] <elky> optimising for the poster
[11:57] <nigelbabu> aah
[11:57] <elky> there's a little too much detail in her clothes though, unlike the UW poster
[11:59] <nigelbabu> so the vectoring would reduce the detail giving you a little bit more freedom in manipulation?
[11:59] <elky> it'd enable us to scale it better
[11:59] <elky> since it's currently raster
[12:00] <nigelbabu> oh.k :)
[12:00] <elky> but, it's not really that much too small for a0, it just makes a really hefty file size :(
[12:02] <nigelbabu> yeah, too much detail
[12:06] <elky> i'm going for fewer layers now
[12:08] <elky> 24 looks like a good compromise, we'll see what it saves to
[12:10] <elky> yeah, only 1mb less. not enough of a saving for the loss of quality
[12:10] <elky> nigelbabu, have you done anything with it yet?
[12:11] <nigelbabu> elky, drawing on paper
[12:11] <elky> hehe
[12:16] <nigelbabu> elky, I do realize how bad I am at it :D
[12:23] <elky> hehe
[12:45] <nigelbabu> elky, okay I'll admit it.  After so much of crumpled paper, I realize again that I have no talent for art :/
[12:49] <elky> heh. /me is working on something
[12:49]  * nigelbabu hugs elky 
[12:50]  * elky hugs openclipart.org and openfontlibrary.org
[13:02] <elky> where the heck does one get .svgs of the new logo?
[13:03] <nigelbabu> we don't.  sigh.
[13:04]  * elky blinks
[13:05] <nigelbabu> only .png I suppose
[13:07] <elky> i'm finding .svgs attached to various places, but not anywhere... um... "canonical"
[13:11] <nigelbabu> well, since the font is not yet compelte
[13:11] <nigelbabu> I dont think we'll get .svgs
[13:16] <elky> I do wonder how they expect the community to run community events without it
[13:16] <nigelbabu> easy, use the old logo
[13:17] <elky> If that's the case, then I wonder how they expect the brand refresh to succeed if there's a split identity
[13:49] <nigelbabu> elky, sensibly do these sort of things at the beginning of a release cycle
[13:50] <nigelbabu> (got distracted by match)
[13:50] <elky> yep, right before every release party
[13:50] <nigelbabu> lol
[15:02] <elky> nigelbabu, http://geekosophical.net/misc/UW_WPD_2010.pdf
[15:02] <elky> another 5mb download
[15:03] <nigelbabu> elky, downloading
[15:11] <elky> nigelbabu, connection still flaking? i can make a small png for you to look until you find less crappy nets if so
[15:12] <nigelbabu> elky, just blocked my roommates mac, should be better :D
[15:12] <elky> hehehe
[15:17] <nigelbabu> elky, it rocks
[15:17] <nigelbabu> only add the attribution at the end
[15:18] <elky> Oh?
[15:18] <elky> Bah, it's gone under the photo layer.
[15:18] <nigelbabu> ah :)
[15:19] <nigelbabu> elky, the ray kind of thing is an effect? or you manually did it?
[15:20] <nigelbabu> I guess akgraner won't be awake for feedback
[15:20] <nigelbabu> wonder if czajkowski, maco, or popey are around
[15:20] <akgraner> I'm awake
[15:20] <maco> im awake
[15:20]  * nigelbabu blinks
[15:21] <maco> why would i be awake but she wouldnt? we're in the same timezone
[15:21] <nigelbabu> maco, she was around till the wee hours of morning helping me send an email to the original photographer of the picture we used
[15:22] <nigelbabu> maco, um, something like 4:30 am
[15:22] <nigelbabu> akgraner, have you slept at all?
[15:22] <maco> wow
[15:22] <maco> thats definitely more of a maco bedtime than an amber bedtime
[15:23] <elky> nigelbabu, you'll find a lot of polyphasic sleepers in the community :P
[15:23] <maco> elky: what does that mean? lots of naps instead of one big sleep?
[15:23] <nigelbabu> maco, like I said earlier, she's turning into less of a NTEU without even her knowing :D
[15:23] <elky> maco, pretty much
[15:24] <nigelbabu> maco, anyway, download the pdf ^ and comment :)
[15:25] <akgraner> nigelbabu, I've had this sleep pattern for years :-)  since at least 1989
[15:25] <maco> babies' faults?
[15:25] <nigelbabu> akgraner, which is? no sleep?
[15:25] <akgraner> no I get naps throughout the day
[15:25] <akgraner> couple hours here
[15:25] <akgraner> couple hours there
[15:25] <nigelbabu> but but but... night?
[15:26] <maco> i took a nap in the student lounge at school one day
[15:26] <nigelbabu> maco, missed any classes?
[15:26] <maco> no set an alarm on my phone
[15:27] <jussi> I used to fall asleep on the bus home from school fairly often... and fairly often ended up at the end of the line....
[15:27] <akgraner> It's only rough for me when I have to follow a "normal" awake all day sleep all night pattern
[15:28] <maco> jussi: oh i nap on the metro a lot
[15:28] <akgraner> I usually end up with 6-8 hours of sleep during a 24 period with naps here and there
[15:28] <maco> but i wake up at each station and look around then go back to sleep
[15:28] <akgraner> the "normal" way only about 3
[15:28] <nigelbabu> maco, haha, I used to do that when I working in a town around 1 hour from home
[15:28]  * elky coughs and points to the channel name
[15:29] <nigelbabu> oooooh, sorry
[15:29] <nigelbabu> back to the point, akgraner, can ya review elky latest work? (I think its awesome)
[15:29] <akgraner> yeah I am looking at it now
[15:30] <akgraner> it's great!!
[15:30] <akgraner> :-)
[15:30] <elky> :)
[15:31] <akgraner> you all rock!
[15:31] <nigelbabu> elky, some time you have to teach me how to do those rays :)
[15:32]  * akgraner wants to learn how to use inkscape
[15:32] <akgraner> but on the back burner
[15:32] <nigelbabu> akgraner, I thought maco was goign to teach you at next conf?
[15:32] <maco> cute!
[15:32] <maco> nigelbabu: yeah but im not expert either :P
[15:32] <akgraner> yeah  - I am just lamenting
[15:32] <elky> nigelbabu, I stole http://www.openclipart.org/detail/18368 then took out the layers I didn't want, then chose the ubuntu yellow and then put a radial gradient on it
[15:32] <nigelbabu> maco, look at  logs, elky and I were looking at some awesome cuteness
[15:33] <elky> yeah search for "*melt*"
[15:33] <nigelbabu> elky, aah, nice :)
[15:33] <maco> i saw your flickr links
[15:33] <elky> serious baby is serious
[15:33] <nigelbabu> elky> http://www.flickr.com/photos/amilianna/2336409188/ <--- *melt*
[15:34] <elky> she can't be even 2yrs old there
[15:34]  * nigelbabu is still melting about this one
[15:35] <elky> i'd be right too http://www.flickr.com/photos/amilianna/239992926/in/set-72157594278682695/
[15:37] <nigelbabu> ahhh :)
[15:41] <nigelbabu> elky, you've fixed the attribution at your end right?
[15:41] <elky> yep, should be
[15:42] <nigelbabu> I think this is ready for some publicity
[15:42] <nigelbabu> Facebook tagging, flickr tagging
[15:44] <elky> Has he responded yet?
[15:44] <nigelbabu> nope, just wakey wakey time I suppose
[15:45] <nigelbabu> anyone know what time zone is Regina, SK?
[15:45] <nigelbabu> well, CST, so its 8:45 am on a saturday
[15:46] <maco> it's canada, so somewhere between me and akk
[15:47] <nigelbabu> ha
[15:47] <maco> CST or CDT?
[15:48] <maco> if theyre in daylight savings time too, its 947
[15:48] <nigelbabu> CST
[15:48] <nigelbabu> according to my gnome clock... what does kde say? ;)
[15:49] <maco> i dont have it configured for saskatchewan so i dont know :P
[15:49] <maco> find it surprising theyre not on daylight time yet though
[15:50] <nigelbabu> maco, I find it surprising that they have the sense not to use DST
[15:51] <maco> heh
[15:59] <nigelbabu> elky, w00t, he reponded
[15:59] <nigelbabu> responded
[15:59] <nigelbabu> Thanks for contacting me. This sounds like a wonderful project, and I'm happy that the photograph (of my daughter) will be helpful. The attribution is correct. Thanks, and best of luck.
[16:00] <maco> yay
[16:01]  * nigelbabu is jumping up and down
[16:03] <elky> WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[16:04] <nigelbabu> once we have everything set, I'll mail him the links where he can see the end product :)
[16:08] <nigelbabu> elky, so, how are we going to distribute, attach pdfs and smaller pics for blogs, facebook, etc?
[16:09] <elky> I'll export a png if you like
[16:09] <nigelbabu> I could use a png
[16:10] <nigelbabu> smaller though ;)
[16:18] <elky> http://geekosophical.net/misc/UW_WPD_2010_small.png
[16:18] <nigelbabu> thank you :)
[16:19] <elky> http://geekosophical.net/misc/UW_WPD_2010_smallest.png

[16:21] <nigelbabu> elky, the attribution we offered to put was "http://www.flickr.com/photos/courosa/  / *http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.0/*"
[16:21] <elky> Oh, I didn't read your email properly
[16:21]  * elky fixes
[16:22] <nigelbabu> this is what amber added in later
[16:22] <elky> why the * around the licence?
[16:22] <nigelbabu> remove it
[16:41] <elky> uploading to wiki currently http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/Events/Competitions/WorldPlayDay/Poster
[16:43] <akgraner> that was the lic that the owner had embedded to the pic in flickr
[16:43] <akgraner> sorry so mis-read that
[16:43] <nigelbabu> hahaha
[16:44] <nigelbabu> this is what happens to insomaniacs :D
[16:44]  * nigelbabu runs
[16:44]  * akgraner makes note to quit abbreviating things 
[16:45] <elky> question of the day: can the wiki cope with a 10.5mb upload?
[16:46] <akgraner> hmmm - try it :-)
[16:46] <nigelbabu> if you're lucky.

[17:35] <nigelbabu> elky, ok.  /me goes to write
[18:04] <nigelbabu> elky, ok, I'm almost done
[18:29] <nigelbabu> elky, akgraner blogged!
[18:30] <elky> whee
[18:30] <nigelbabu> http://justanothertriager.wordpress.com/2010/04/17/win-her-a-netbook/
[18:42] <elky> \o/
[18:42] <nigelbabu> elky, blogged?
[18:42] <elky> yup
[18:42]  * nigelbabu refreshes geekosophical
[18:43] <nigelbabu> w00t w00t!
[18:43] <nigelbabu> elky, I talked to pablo from uruguay, he'll get a spanish announcement in
[18:44] <elky> nice
[18:44] <elky> also, jono appears to be back on the tweetosphere so hopefully he'll catch up sooner rather than later
[18:45] <nigelbabu> great :)
[18:45] <nigelbabu> elky, last hope.  print posters and bribe pleia2 and akgraner to distribute during UDS :D
[18:59] <akgraner> nigelbabu, no bribing necessary - I'll add them to the stuff being mailed to the hotel
[19:00] <akgraner> the UW ones are being sent there, along with business cards, so I'll add this one as well
[19:01] <elky> when is UDS?
[19:01] <maco> may 10-14
[19:02]  * elky didn't even bother to check because she can't spare time for it anyway
[19:02] <elky> maco, cutting it a bit short then...
[19:02] <akgraner> which reminds me - elky you should be getting 100 posters  50/50 of two different sizes arrival date is set for sometime between 15 and 21 of May
[19:02] <elky> since it kinda /closes/ 14th may
[19:02] <elky> akgraner, oh wow
[19:03] <akgraner> rather than have them all sent to me - I sent some to you  - shipping some to Laura and some to UDS
[19:03] <elky> hehe
[19:04] <akgraner> then after UDS I'll figure out what is left and slap up a wiki and request form and go from there
[19:06] <akgraner> wow this day is flying by - bbiab
[19:12] <pleia2> elky: awesome poster!!
[19:13] <elky> :D innit just (if i do say so myself)
[19:14] <nigelbabu> elky, to think we did it all when US was asleep :)
[19:14] <elky> would have been nicer to have the new branding, but sucks to be us, er, canonical if they want the branding to stick without community materials having access to an official svg
[19:15] <elky> (we couldn't find an official one)
[19:27] <nigelbabu> elky, just curious.  what time is it?
[19:27] <elky> *mumble*4:30*mumble*
[19:27] <maco> we might have an official svg for kubuntu if you want that
[19:27] <nigelbabu> maco, no thanks :D
[19:28] <nigelbabu> maco, you might be interested to look into our photographer
[19:28] <nigelbabu> http://educationaltechnology.ca/couros/?s=ubuntu
[19:28] <maco> yep i saw the link earlier
[19:29] <nigelbabu> look at the last post
[19:32] <elky> Someone should probably also write somethign to the ITLA folks at some point too
[19:32] <nigelbabu> ITLA?
[19:33] <nigelbabu> elky, ITLA?
[19:34] <elky> International Toy Library Association
[19:34] <elky> The folks who invented world play day
[19:34] <nigelbabu> ooooh
[19:37] <elky> Eyes are starting to not work. Sounds like bedtime symptoms to me.
[19:42] <nigelbabu> elky, definitely
[20:17] <maco> hhaha
[20:17]  * nigelbabu notes maco laughs after 40 minutes
[23:35] <czajkowski> nigelbabu: sup?
