duanedesignJanC: i thought it was pretty neat myself. I struggle to make stuff that creative.00:01

* nigelb hugs pleia2, maco, and other americas board02:50
nigelbyou folks are so nice and send mail to the -news-team after every meeting :)02:50
* nhandler accepts nigelb's hug04:06
nigelbnhandler: oh, you're there too?04:08
nhandlernigelb: Yep ;)04:08
nigelbwe seriously need to find a team without your active participation :p04:08
* nigelb thinks that's a myth though04:08
nhandlernigelb: I am not that "active" on all teams. I learn their workflows and how to contribute to them, and then move around each cycle (helps with burnout imo)04:14
nigelbnhandler: you need to touch base with akgraner04:15
nigelbthat should go on her presentation about volunteer vertigo :D04:15
nhandler:)04:15

cjohnstonlol14:52
Technovikingjcastro: what is up15:34
jcastrotwo things, I saw mgunes got a rename on the forums15:35
jcastrois that possible now?15:35
jcastroalso, any idea why my signature doesn't work? Do you guys block remote-type things? http://ubuntuforums.org/member.php?u=7415:35
jcastrowrt signatures - (If you can't beat em, join em!)15:35
Technovikingjcastro: in a case by case basis, if the name is free and their is a good reason (harassment, widely known by other name, etc...)15:36
Technovikings/their/there (need coffee)15:36
jcastroyes, mostly, it's been like 5 years and I'd like to not be known by an old sega genesis video game because I am not a BBSer anymore. :p15:36
* popey hugs Technoviking 15:36
Technovikingjcastro: I don't know of any changes to the sigs15:37
jcastrois it possible to use a link like that?15:38
jcastrohere's what it looks like15:38
jcastrohttp://stackimage.quickmediasolutions.com/mini.php?id=235&site=ubuntu.stackexchange&backgrou%20nd=eeeeee&border=ffffff&text=555555&title=5555ff&f%20ont1=sans&font2=sansbold15:38
jcastroI find it too awesome to not use that, heh15:38
popeyheh15:39
Technovikingyeah, regular user only get text and link text15:39
Technovikingstaff get graphics as a bonus (which I think sends a lame message)15:40
popey+115:40
popeyUbuntu members and devs should get it :)15:40
popeyand council members15:40
popeyand people called popey15:40
Technovikingpopey hates forum, he gets nothing:)15:41
jcastroI'll just remove it then, special treatment ftl.15:41
TechnovikingI think giving Ubuntu members and dev that bonus is a fantastic idea though15:42
Technovikingbeen think about making generated sigs in vBulletin, that pulls info from LP and maybe stackexchange15:44
jcastrothat would be cool15:44
jcastroit would seperate people who might know what they are talking about if you see their lp karm15:44
jcastrovs. "just reinstall the distro" people15:44
jonohey all15:48
popeyits also a motivator for membership for forums people15:49
popeywho probably dont have much motivation for going for membership?15:49
