[05:29] <MTecknology> mhall119: newz2000: When I finish these light-drupal-changes, - will you guys want to review the changes?
[05:32] <MTecknology> I 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..
[12:45] <mhall119> MTecknology: I'll be happy to review them, but I'm not familiar enough with drupal to spot any potential errors on the php side
[14:01] <MTecknology> mhall119: that's alright- the code I write is always flawless
[14:22] <mhall119> you too?  sweet!
[14:25] <MTecknology> mhall119: yup :D
[14:26] <MTecknology> mhall119: my problem is that when I wake up I have to start writing the code - then I don't do as good
[14:26] <mhall119> heh
[14:40] <newz2000> MTecknology: I will have time next week to review them, sorry, beta and a family vacation are going to eat up this week
[14:49] <MTecknology> newz2000: It won't be ready until next week. :)
[14:50] <newz2000> ok, yes, I can check it out
[17:26] <MTecknology> So Ubuntu is Orange and Canonical is Purple ?
[17:35] <newz2000> MTecknology: yes
[17:36] <newz2000> The funny story behind that is that the desktop is purple so people assume Ubuntu is purple
[17:36] <newz2000> (which is a fair assumption)
[17:37] <MTecknology> no longer the Brown distro.. it's the Purple distro :P
[17:40] <newz2000> orange! :-)
[17:41]  * newz2000 is just kidding
[17:44] <MTecknology> newz2000: :P
[17:45] <MTecknology> newz2000: It doesn't feel orange..
[17:45] <MTecknology> there's barely any orange on the cd case
[21:47] <newz2000> I just contacted all of the winners of the countdown competition.
[21:48] <newz2000> If you didn't get contacted, thanks for contributing!
[21:48] <newz2000> it was a very very tough decision
[22:28] <MTecknology> newz2000: :'(
[22:28] <MTecknology> newz2000: Why didn't I win?..
[22:29] <newz2000> MTecknology: I guess there were too many good entries.
[22:29] <newz2000> I didn't actually make the decision, let me look at yours again
[22:29] <MTecknology> newz2000: don't waste your time on that.. I was failing at being funny
[22:29] <newz2000> oh
[22:29] <newz2000> :-)
[22:30] <MTecknology> newz2000: You're supposed to tell me that I need to at a minimum submit something
[22:30] <newz2000> yes, that would be an excellent start!
[22:30] <MTecknology> I wish I had graphic skill
[22:30] <newz2000> I wish you did too
[22:30] <newz2000> ;-)
[22:31] <MTecknology> I hired a graphic designer.. I'll see if she wants to pitch in some ideas for the next round.
[22:31] <MTecknology> wait.....
[22:31] <MTecknology> was that a shot at my drupal theme?
[22:31] <newz2000> no, I was totally kidding
[22:32] <MTecknology> I suck at humor
[22:32] <newz2000> I have zero complaints about your themeing
[22:32] <MTecknology> You might when these changes come up
[22:32] <newz2000> I can always think of something nice to say ;-)
[22:32] <MTecknology> lol.
[22:32] <newz2000> MTecknology: regarding humour, I once tried telling a "knock knock" joke to someone in Latin America
[22:32] <newz2000> total flop
[22:33] <newz2000> I ended up having to explain what a knock knock joke was
[22:33] <MTecknology> that's how most of mine are
[22:34] <MTecknology> I came up with an idea for the trademark guidelines which you may or may not like. I REALLY hope you like it.
[22:34] <newz2000> warn me now, are you leading up to a joke?
[22:34] <MTecknology> no
[22:34] <MTecknology> Got a minute to see what I'm cooking up?
[22:34] <newz2000> oh :-(
[22:34] <newz2000> sure
[22:34] <MTecknology> You wanted a joke?
[22:35] <newz2000> I was curious what you were going to try to pull off there
[22:35] <MTecknology> oh
[22:35] <MTecknology> So.. check out http://staging.profarius.com/]
[22:35] <newz2000> I love your search box/button idea
[22:36] <MTecknology> :)
[22:36] <MTecknology> Either search box is entirely optional
[22:36] <newz2000> Does the launchpad login work?
[22:36] <MTecknology> yup
[22:36] <newz2000> I'm not crazy about the colors but this has some really interesting stuff to it
[22:37] <newz2000> nice drop down too
[22:37] <MTecknology> That's optional too - entirely based on nice_menus module enabled
[22:37] <newz2000> So you have two types of secondary nav, maybe three. Is your goal to have one theme that demonstrates a variety of options?
[22:38] <MTecknology> It has a lot of things available that are not there by default
[22:38] <MTecknology> now...
[22:39] <MTecknology> This would be fully usable by anyone, right?
[22:39] <newz2000> The only questionable part is the Ubuntu logo, otherwise, yes
[22:39] <MTecknology> refresh the page
[22:39] <newz2000> btw, you probably dont want copyright canonical
[22:39] <newz2000> oh, clever
[22:39] <MTecknology> I'll drop that
[22:40] <newz2000> is this using drupal color module?
[22:40] <MTecknology> nope - I tried - that was........ painful
[22:40] <newz2000> so how did you do this?
[22:40] <MTecknology> there are too many different parts of this theme for that module to handle it
[22:41] <MTecknology> I just have 4 default templates. The brown being fixed upand the blue in the works
[22:41] <MTecknology> refresh
[22:41] <newz2000> ah, this is why you were asking about colors before
[22:41] <MTecknology> yup :)
[22:41] <newz2000> very clever work
[22:41] <MTecknology> thanks
[22:41] <MTecknology> http://imagebin.ca/img/A5LPtT.png
[22:42] <newz2000> I am going to a meeting with Alejandra on Tuesday and we're going to talk about CSS and shared resources
[22:42] <newz2000> I hope that we can cover then how distinct community stuff should be
[22:43] <newz2000> Mark said something recently about wanting all sites to have common elements, and that was not very clear
[22:43] <newz2000> so hopefully we're going to work that out
[22:43] <MTecknology> that '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] <newz2000> ah
[22:44] <newz2000> ok, gotta go but I'll finish my thought first
[22:44] <newz2000> hopefully after that meeting I'll know how much we can share
[22:44] <newz2000> maybe we can share more than we once thought
[22:44] <newz2000> anyway, great job
[22:44] <MTecknology> However... drupal.org guys could get touchy. I was hoping we could host a css file on s.ubuntu.ru if possible
[22:44] <newz2000> I'm goign to go publish a beta I think
[22:45] <MTecknology> I 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.
[22:46] <MTecknology> Thanks for checking out the theme. I'm glad you like what you see. :)
