| DanaG | Hmm, this new 1-pixel border on Maverick is damn near impossible to grab. You ever try hitting something 0.1728mm wide? | 20:03 |
|---|---|---|
| DanaG | That's literally how wide it is on my screen. | 20:04 |
| DanaG | (And frankly, the new wallpaper looks like somebody spilled baby food (to use a less gross analogy) on the Lucid wallpaper. | 20:05 |
| DanaG | oops, mismatched my parentheses. | 20:05 |
| doctormo | DanaG: Did you see my blog entry today? | 20:06 |
| DanaG | Not sure... which blog is it? | 20:07 |
| DanaG | Correction: it's 1px everywhere except at the corners, where there's a 2px by 2px block. | 20:07 |
| DanaG | Thankfully, I know to alt+middledrag. | 20:08 |
| DanaG | Does GTK let you use "em" or "points" or other such relative measurements? | 20:08 |
| DanaG | ah, the canonical design one? | 20:09 |

| DanaG | Nifty idea, those random variations... but needs some nicer source to work with (not just splotches). Or rather, even "splotches" would look nicer than the faded blobs. | 20:12 |
| DanaG | Something like this would be nice: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ajsOZ0dtxo | 20:13 |
| DanaG | Snapshots of random shapes. | 20:13 |
| DanaG | But with less-harsh colors. | 20:14 |
| doctormo | DanaG: Do you have any experience with svg? | 20:14 |
| DanaG | Not really. | 20:14 |
| DanaG | er, rather, not at all. | 20:15 |
| doctormo | DanaG: What you've shown me is easy enough to do and if there was money in making it (or if it was my job) I'd love to make it happen. | 20:15 |
| DanaG | I'll bet if you link there on the blog post, somebody could implement it. | 20:17 |
| DanaG | The thing also lets you use squares and question-marks and such. | 20:18 |
| vish | DanaG: i guess you dont really know the famous doctormo :) | 20:19 |
| DanaG | Not really. | 20:19 |
| DanaG | I just posted a comment on the Canonical one. | 20:28 |
