[08:53] popey: i guess a youtube skin consists of: square logo (in 2 sizes), one bg color or image, 2 box colors, text and link colors? [09:19] no idea thorwil :) [09:22] popey: should be very straightforward to apply a ubuntu.com alike style, but i'm busy with a mockup and would like to see if someone else picks this up [09:23] ok [10:56] popey: It's a shame youtube doesn't allow channels to redirect, we'd have a better website showing youtube videos and default them all to html5 for the look of the thing. Although me is biased since I fight the youtube UI all the time for control over what I want to watch. [11:09] doctormo: build it and we can point people to it [11:23] popey: What does it need to do again? [12:08] doctormo: show videos? [12:17] popey: That's a vague set of requirements for a whole website. I could knock up a website which shows two fixed videos and fulfil it technically. [12:17] What I mean to ask [12:18] Is where do you want users uploading videos to, how automatic would you like listing of videos and what kind of community participation would be good? [12:50] I think there's a danger of overthinking it [12:51] most of the videos we put out there are to attract people, and most of those (mass generalisation) inhabit youtube [12:51] they also generally have flash etc, so dont care for html5 [13:08] popey: There's a paracticalist for you, always pushing away the marketing in favour of the bland. [13:09] We could link in to what ever community, build a community in that area. [13:09] http://xkcd.com/802/ <- use this as a map if you like [13:10] But there is a difference which I'm trying to assess between servicing the X community that are interested in Ubuntu and serving the Ubuntu community with service X. [13:10] Which is what I think I'm trying to ask you. [13:11] * popey shurgs [13:11] its not my baby [13:12] So you don't know what it's for? [13:12] "it" being the youtube developer channel? [13:12] or "it" being "a system of getting video content to people"? [13:13] I can only speculate what I think the channel is for [13:13] popey: The youtube channel requiring a theme. [13:14] the request came from jorge [13:14] And "a system of getting video" to which people? [13:14] Youtube people or Planet Ubuntu people. [13:15] Maybe I should ask jcastro, *sigh* few seem to ever think about marketing seriously. [13:16] :( [13:16] all I did was ask for a theme to make the youtube developer channel look 'nicer' [13:17] Sorry, just a bedbug that all this theming is burning away people's time without concise direction so logos and styles don't match their target audience. It's not your fault.
