| DanaG | Say, have any of the ubuntu-font developers tested the font on high-dpi displays? | 05:03 |

| DanaG | Notice the little "blobs" on the 'c' and the 't'. | 05:03 |
| hyperair | i see no blobs. | 05:05 |
| DanaG | Zoom all the way in on that pic. | 05:06 |
| DanaG | http://picpaste.com/pics/Screenshot-iveefAJG.1285819397.png | 05:06 |
| DanaG | Well, not quite a "blob", but it's like there are bits leading up to a curve, but the curve itself is cut off. | 05:07 |
| DanaG | And the lowercase 'l' keeps making me think it's underlined, at least in Firefox. | 05:07 |
| DanaG | oh, I have no 'l' in that pic. | 05:08 |
| DanaG | But if I zoom in, I see it has the same sort of blobby thing -- but in this case, it's immediately adjacent to the hinting on the left part of the curve. | 05:09 |
| DanaG | So it looks thick. | 05:09 |
| DanaG | Anyway, try setting gnome to, say, 147 DPI, and "slight hinting", as is the default in Maverick, at least. | 05:18 |

| thorwil | what's the right term for the space between tiles (ceramic): seams, gaps, grooves, joints, interstices? | 09:23 |
| thorwil | doctormo: hi! hmm, the previews have issues: http://art.ubuntu-owl.org/files/thorwil/13 | 09:56 |
| thorwil | what it should look like: http://www.foopics.com/showfull/cc24616942a90cbccbb685756e56d9a1 | 09:58 |
| vish | thorwil: i think "gaps" work fine when it is a bigger space, and "grooves" are for the minor spaces it forms | 10:08 |
| thorwil | vish: about to reply to "Artwork Team Logo" | 10:12 |
| * vish was wondering when the "logo-updater" would speak up! | 10:13 | |
| vish | :p | 10:13 |
| thorwil | vish: my points will be: concentrate on the symbol, don't mess with type. use pen/paper. use an image hoster, preferably foopics.com | 10:14 |
| vish | cool! | 10:14 |
| vish | why do people prefer foopics.com though? | 10:15 |
| thorwil | image hoster means absolute minimal barrier, but no archive | 10:15 |
| * vish checks it out, never used it | 10:15 | |
| thorwil | vish: it's fast and lean | 10:15 |
| vish | hmm, seems nearly similar to imagebin.ca , but need to actually check it out | 10:16 |
| thorwil | vish: so, got anything to add? | 10:16 |
| vish | thorwil: well, "dont stick to the Ubuntu logo alone" | 10:17 |
| thorwil | ok | 10:17 |
| vish | we'd have people just blindly modifying the existing logo, and art team does not need to use the logo | 10:18 |

| zniavre | the new font is not a bit too small ? | 20:36 |
| vish | zniavre: yup | 21:43 |
| vish | they seem to know but, not sure why they choose to leave it smaller :s | 21:44 |
