MTecknologymhall119: newz2000: When I finish these light-drupal-changes, - will you guys want to review the changes?05:29
MTecknologyI want to go through the merge proposal either way - there are a crap ton of changes. I'd really like if someone could do either a real review or at minimum blindly review and approve..05:32
mhall119MTecknology: I'll be happy to review them, but I'm not familiar enough with drupal to spot any potential errors on the php side12:45
=== txwikinger2 is now known as txwikinger
MTecknologymhall119: that's alright- the code I write is always flawless14:01
mhall119you too?  sweet!14:22
MTecknologymhall119: yup :D14:25
MTecknologymhall119: my problem is that when I wake up I have to start writing the code - then I don't do as good14:26
mhall119heh14:26
newz2000MTecknology: I will have time next week to review them, sorry, beta and a family vacation are going to eat up this week14:40
MTecknologynewz2000: It won't be ready until next week. :)14:49
newz2000ok, yes, I can check it out14:50
MTecknologySo Ubuntu is Orange and Canonical is Purple ?17:26
newz2000MTecknology: yes17:35
newz2000The funny story behind that is that the desktop is purple so people assume Ubuntu is purple17:36
newz2000(which is a fair assumption)17:36
MTecknologyno longer the Brown distro.. it's the Purple distro :P17:37
newz2000orange! :-)17:40
* newz2000 is just kidding17:41
MTecknologynewz2000: :P17:44
MTecknologynewz2000: It doesn't feel orange..17:45
MTecknologythere's barely any orange on the cd case17:45
newz2000I just contacted all of the winners of the countdown competition.21:47
newz2000If you didn't get contacted, thanks for contributing!21:48
newz2000it was a very very tough decision21:48
MTecknologynewz2000: :'(22:28
MTecknologynewz2000: Why didn't I win?..22:28
newz2000MTecknology: I guess there were too many good entries.22:29
newz2000I didn't actually make the decision, let me look at yours again22:29
MTecknologynewz2000: don't waste your time on that.. I was failing at being funny22:29
newz2000oh22:29
newz2000:-)22:29
MTecknologynewz2000: You're supposed to tell me that I need to at a minimum submit something22:30
newz2000yes, that would be an excellent start!22:30
MTecknologyI wish I had graphic skill22:30
newz2000I wish you did too22:30
newz2000;-)22:30
MTecknologyI hired a graphic designer.. I'll see if she wants to pitch in some ideas for the next round.22:31
MTecknologywait.....22:31
MTecknologywas that a shot at my drupal theme?22:31
newz2000no, I was totally kidding22:31
MTecknologyI suck at humor22:32
newz2000I have zero complaints about your themeing22:32
MTecknologyYou might when these changes come up22:32
newz2000I can always think of something nice to say ;-)22:32
MTecknologylol.22:32
newz2000MTecknology: regarding humour, I once tried telling a "knock knock" joke to someone in Latin America22:32
newz2000total flop22:32
newz2000I ended up having to explain what a knock knock joke was22:33
MTecknologythat's how most of mine are22:33
MTecknologyI came up with an idea for the trademark guidelines which you may or may not like. I REALLY hope you like it.22:34
newz2000warn me now, are you leading up to a joke?22:34
MTecknologyno22:34
MTecknologyGot a minute to see what I'm cooking up?22:34
newz2000oh :-(22:34
newz2000sure22:34
MTecknologyYou wanted a joke?22:34
newz2000I was curious what you were going to try to pull off there22:35
MTecknologyoh22:35
MTecknologySo.. check out http://staging.profarius.com/]22:35
newz2000I love your search box/button idea22:35
MTecknology:)22:36
MTecknologyEither search box is entirely optional22:36
newz2000Does the launchpad login work?22:36
MTecknologyyup22:36
newz2000I'm not crazy about the colors but this has some really interesting stuff to it22:36
newz2000nice drop down too22:37
MTecknologyThat's optional too - entirely based on nice_menus module enabled22:37
newz2000So you have two types of secondary nav, maybe three. Is your goal to have one theme that demonstrates a variety of options?22:37
MTecknologyIt has a lot of things available that are not there by default22:38
MTecknologynow...22:38
MTecknologyThis would be fully usable by anyone, right?22:39
newz2000The only questionable part is the Ubuntu logo, otherwise, yes22:39
MTecknologyrefresh the page22:39
newz2000btw, you probably dont want copyright canonical22:39
newz2000oh, clever22:39
MTecknologyI'll drop that22:39
newz2000is this using drupal color module?22:40
MTecknologynope - I tried - that was........ painful22:40
newz2000so how did you do this?22:40
MTecknologythere are too many different parts of this theme for that module to handle it22:40
MTecknologyI just have 4 default templates. The brown being fixed upand the blue in the works22:41
MTecknologyrefresh22:41
newz2000ah, this is why you were asking about colors before22:41
MTecknologyyup :)22:41
newz2000very clever work22:41
MTecknologythanks22:41
MTecknologyhttp://imagebin.ca/img/A5LPtT.png22:41
newz2000I am going to a meeting with Alejandra on Tuesday and we're going to talk about CSS and shared resources22:42
newz2000I hope that we can cover then how distinct community stuff should be22:42
newz2000Mark said something recently about wanting all sites to have common elements, and that was not very clear22:43
newz2000so hopefully we're going to work that out22:43
MTecknologythat 'official ubuntu' style would fall in the trademark area but not 100%. That additional option down at the bottom of that image I linked to - that would use images from s.ubuntu.ru.22:43
newz2000ah22:43
newz2000ok, gotta go but I'll finish my thought first22:44
newz2000hopefully after that meeting I'll know how much we can share22:44
newz2000maybe we can share more than we once thought22:44
newz2000anyway, great job22:44
MTecknologyHowever... drupal.org guys could get touchy. I was hoping we could host a css file on s.ubuntu.ru if possible22:44
newz2000I'm goign to go publish a beta I think22:44
MTecknologyI was hoping you could bring up that css file when you're meeting with them. Then there's nothing 'touchy' to be distributed in the theme but will easily be perfect for a lot of community projects.22:45
MTecknologyThanks for checking out the theme. I'm glad you like what you see. :)22:46
