ArcitensHello08:30
rohitnikcoolhello i am having some network problem can anyone help me out.15:44
Pendulumcharlie-tca: if I can get you a copy of the proposed new UW wiki theme can you look at it and let us know what needs to be fixed? ( us = AlanBell mostly)18:57
PendulumAlanBell: do you have a link somewhere to the new UW theme?18:57
Pendulumhajour: I'm really sorry, but I think you messaged me like a week ago and I just completely forgot to respond19:01
charlie-tcaPendulum: yes, I can take a look19:05
Pendulumcharlie-tca: okay, hopefully Alan will have a link soonish as the link pleia2 had doesn't seem to be working anymore19:05
charlie-tcaOkay, no problem19:06
cprofittCool... you guys have a whole new wiki theme?19:16
cprofittI had someone pickup my bug about the wiki just recently...19:16
Pendulumcprofitt: there's been an UW-specific theme in the works for the UW wiki (which is not the same as the Ubuntu wiki)19:17
PendulumUW = Ubuntu Women19:17
cprofittoh...19:18
cprofittI thought perhaps it was part of the ubuntu wiki19:18
cprofittdoes canonical maintain the server or do you guys have control of it?19:18
PendulumOTOH, it has to get approved by IS so maybe if we can make it accessible, we can get it approved for the main wiki too19:19
cprofittso Canonical hosts...19:24
cprofittcool...19:24
Pendulumyes19:24
cprofittif they fix the theme for the main site to honor moin moin code I will be happy19:24
cprofittright now it doesn't honor center, left, right alignment in tables19:25
AlanBello/19:29
AlanBellcprofitt: got a bug number?19:30
cprofittI do at home AlanBell 19:30
cprofitta developer picked up the bug for me...19:30
cprofittlet me check LP... it should be listed there too19:30
AlanBellI have been submitting fixes to the main wiki theme, I have a bunch of outstanding merge requests that have been approved and not merged19:30
PendulumAlanBell: do you have a link for where charlie-tca could test the UW wiki theme?19:30
AlanBellI will fire it up on my laptop and post a link19:31
AlanBellPendulum: can you delete me from the wordpress blog and re-add me please19:31
PendulumAlanBell: yep, I'll see if I can19:31
AlanBellgreat19:31
cprofittAlanBell: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-isd-web/+bug/65747219:32
ubot2Launchpad bug 657472 in canonical-isd-web "Alignment being ignored in the new wiki theme (affects: 2) (heat: 12)" [Undecided,Confirmed]19:32
PendulumAlanBell: see if it works now19:33
Pendulumcharlie-tca: what was the name of the wordpress theme you thought was probably accessible?19:34
PendulumAlanBell: so that worked?19:36
AlanBellyes19:37
AlanBellI have to go eat and stuff now, will be back in an hour or two19:37
Pendulumno worries. I'm looking at themes :)19:37
charlie-tcaPendulum: can't remember now. I will have to go searching for it19:39
* charlie-tca is braindead today19:39
Pendulumcharlie-tca: can you look at the current theme and tell me what you think? (it's the default. I'm also going to play with some others)19:39
charlie-tcayup; URL again?19:40
Pendulumhttp://ubuntuaccessibility.wordpress.com/19:40
charlie-tcareally brain dead today... can't remember hardly anything today19:40
Pendulumno worries19:40
PendulumI know what brain fog is like :)19:40
charlie-tcaUm, the non-selected item is dark grey on black, making it hard to see19:41
Pendulum*nods*19:42
charlie-tcathe light-gray on white is not bad, though, when looking at "About"19:44
Pendulumok19:44
charlie-tcaText typed in the boxes is easy to read, too.19:44
charlie-tcaUnfortunately, if you can't see the menu well, the rest won't matter19:45
PendulumI'm going to try another theme (one with non-fixed width) and then maybe see about playing around with colours because I think I can change those (or get Alan to help me)19:45
charlie-tcathe top is busy, but that can be easily not seen19:45
Pendulumtry refreshing. what do you think of this one?19:46
PendulumI can easily chance colours on it19:46
Pendulum*change19:46
Pendulum(easier than on the first one)19:46
charlie-tcathat is much better19:47
Pendulumokay, I like it better too :)19:47
charlie-tcaThat's similar to the one I am looking for19:47
Pendulumthat one is called Garland19:48
charlie-tcabut, it will take me a while to find that name19:48
charlie-tcaI like Garland then19:48
PendulumI'm correct that flexible width is better than fixed for anyone who blows up the type size, right?19:48
charlie-tcaand the fact that it is not fixed width makes a difference for those trying to use it full screen19:48
Pendulumyeah19:49
charlie-tcaEven when I grow the text big, I can see see the whole page19:49
Pendulum*nods*19:49
Pendulumis blue a good colour for you?19:50
charlie-tcayes, 19:50
charlie-tcablue is great19:50
charlie-tcaMight have hajour take a look at it, because she loses some color I see19:50
Pendulumwhat if I make the general text to actual black, would that be better?19:50
charlie-tcaAlways19:51
charlie-tcaIdeal colors are yellow on red or black on white or white on black19:51
Pendulum*nods*19:51
charlie-tcaand yes, that is a true yellow on red, not faded or tinted yellow19:51
charlie-tcaYou got it! that is much better, just don't know it until you see it19:52
Pendulumtry refreshing again, I just made the links darker too19:53
charlie-tcahm, not sure I don't want the links lighter again. They tend to blend into the text now at times19:54
Pendulumokay19:54
PendulumI can restore that19:54
PendulumI wasn't sure if they were too light originally19:54
Pendulumjust let me finish adding the about page and I'll return them :)19:54
charlie-tcawe don't like that color for links. Either got to be lighter or a different color to show up19:55
Pendulumcharlie-tca: is this better?19:59
charlie-tcaYes, for these eyes it sure is.19:59
Pendulumokay20:00
charlie-tcaw00t! bonus - can read the text and find the links - what a deal20:00
Pendulumhajour: when you get a chance can you look at http://ubuntuaccessibility.wordpress.com/ and let us know how the theme works for you in terms of accessibility? (you can ignore most of the content as that will change once we know the theme is good!)20:01
Pendulumokay, the About page has been updated with a link to the wiki20:01
Pendulumonce we know the theme is definitely good, I'll add it to planet and make a first real post :)20:02
Pendulumcan y'all tell I'm feeling better than I have in a month? ;)20:02
Pendulumdo we have a team symbol?20:04
charlie-tcaPendulum: glad to hear you are feeling somewhat better! It does show, you know20:04
Pendulumerr... or whatever the word is that I'm looking for and can't remember...20:04
Pendulum(I'm just wondering if there's a graphic I can use for when I put stuff on planet)20:05
charlie-tcaI have one we used for the wiki (orange cirlce with wheelchair) that we can have blown up if we want to. We can also change the color if needed20:06
Pendulum*nods*20:08
Pendulumis there somewhere I can grab it from or can you e-mail it to me or something?20:08
charlie-tcagrab it here - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Accessibility/HeaderMain?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=accessibility.png20:11
