| edubuntu | sup buntus? | 01:12 |
|---|---|---|
| doctormo | highvoltage: How's the info for the background going? | 01:55 |
| highvoltage | doctormo: I didn't get any feedback on the list, so I'm going to put together what I think will be great and people will have to be happy with what they get :) | 02:12 |
| doctormo | highvoltage: We'll so a 5,1,3 pattern if that's ok with you? 5 concepts, 1 selection, 3 consultations and updates. | 02:14 |
| highvoltage | doctormo: sounds good | 02:55 |
| doctormo | highvoltage: Ah, yes, forgot what I said for a second | 02:56 |
| highvoltage | doctormo: that's a long second :) | 03:09 |
| highvoltage | (oops, I misread there for a bit) | 03:09 |
| doctormo | highvoltage: Fun fun, I saw a wallpaper and da and thought of you today, | 03:12 |
| doctormo | let me dig it up | 03:12 |
| doctormo | highvoltage: http://fav.me/d398q54 | 03:16 |
| doctormo | But I also just saw this one, you have to check it out: http://fav.me/d398ufo | 03:17 |
| highvoltage | heh | 03:17 |
| highvoltage | you get narwhals with... tusks!? | 03:18 |
| doctormo | highvoltage: You don't, that's creative license. | 03:26 |
| highvoltage | heh, yes | 03:28 |
| mgariepy | good morning everyone | 13:23 |
| mhall119 | morning | 13:41 |
| Dunc_ | having problems logging on w/ my ltsp clients... anyone willing to listen? | 16:04 |
| Dunc_ | pam validates user, subsystem request sftp, receives disconnect from client | 16:06 |
| Dunc_ | ltsp standalone running on Ubuntu 10.10 | 16:06 |
| doctormo | highvoltage: Ello | 18:04 |
| highvoltage | doctormo: heya | 19:55 |
| highvoltage | doctormo: busy putting together email for you now... | 19:55 |
| doctormo | thanks | 19:56 |
| highvoltage | doctormo: I didn't get any feedback, seems like people don't care about wallpapers until release :) | 19:57 |
| highvoltage | doctormo: sending you wants/don't-wants/mood stuff, don't have much in terms of definition and concept yet though | 19:57 |
| doctormo | highvoltage: You'll get your 5 concepts, your team must pick one from there and then we'll work on it more from there. 3 times to get it right. | 20:11 |
| doctormo | highvoltage: Although you've got a double negative in your requirements, I should clarify that line | 20:12 |
| doctormo | You say "Do not want something not /too/ cartoonish", but this means you want something cartoonish. | 20:13 |
| doctormo | highvoltage: See http://fav.me/d39apk5 for fun, please feedback me. | 20:14 |
| highvoltage | doctormo: I guess that's not too much so, you can drop that requirement if you want | 20:17 |
| doctormo | highvoltage: No, you misunderstand, I just need you to clarify what you said. | 20:17 |
| highvoltage | doctormo: ok, you pasted me your debian squeeze wallpaper, which is really great and would be perfect... if it wasn't squeeze themed and had a debian logo :) | 20:18 |
| doctormo | highvoltage: You still here? | 20:39 |
| doctormo | Keep in mind that this is very raw concept stage, look at this http://imagebin.org/137416 | 20:40 |
| doctormo | It's based on the debian squeeze one, but with the edubuntu logo. | 20:40 |
| doctormo | I'm still coming up with a way to do the person, and who/what the person should be. | 20:41 |
| highvoltage | doctormo: ok, great. we'd like to avoid having logos on the wallpaper (sorry that's an obvious one I should've mentioned to you before), but yes, it can work. I know you like manga-style drawings but I think that might be what we'd consider "too cartoonish" if you know what I mean | 20:46 |
| highvoltage | doctormo: do you think you could make a daytime version work? | 20:47 |
| highvoltage | hmm, I guess that would mean losing the nice colours | 20:47 |
| doctormo | highvoltage: OK I'm scrapping the concept. | 20:47 |
| doctormo | Because everything about it is wrong ;-) | 20:47 |
| doctormo | Although requirements are so important that you need to really list everything, even obvious things. | 20:48 |
| doctormo | highvoltage: So I need to do a little bit of training with you so you know how to make requirements. | 20:50 |
| highvoltage | sorry, I mentioned it so many times before to jbaer before, we had it on the previous spec, I should've copied and pasted more from there | 20:50 |
| doctormo | I need to understand the mood of the piece you want. So far you've not really gone into the emotion much. | 20:50 |
| doctormo | Your document has grouped my three things into one and then split into two bullets. | 20:50 |
| doctormo | I really need an answer per question | 20:51 |
| doctormo | I think I can decypher what info should go in what box, but it's important to be more direct. | 20:51 |
| highvoltage | doctormo: The thing you need to understand is that we don't have all those answers. For the missing parts we need an artist, someone like you. If I could show you a picture of what we want, then we wouldn't need you in the first place now would we? | 20:52 |
| doctormo | highvoltage: Obviously, but if you ask an artist to do the specification, you must be happy with whatever he comes up with. | 20:52 |
| doctormo | Anyway, I'll continue to hack away at the remaining 4 concepts and present them to you at the end of next week. | 20:53 |
| doctormo | Hopefully we can move from there. | 20:53 |
| highvoltage | doctormo: indeed, although right at the beginning I did explicitely tell you that we have some basic requirements and the rest are basically left to artistic license | 20:54 |
| highvoltage | doctormo: yes, I hope so too :) | 20:54 |
| doctormo | yea, I admit I've been trying to push you towards nailing it down, because I fear rejection of hard work at the end. | 20:54 |
| doctormo | But i'll trust you on this one. | 20:54 |
| highvoltage | doctormo: yes, I understand that | 20:57 |
| highvoltage | doctormo: in concept, I actually like the girl sitting on the hill, I didn't reject that, but I think that could be a good wallpaper if she was less manga-ey, and perhaps sitting under a tree or something. I'm not sure how much off a concept is allowed to change before you consider it rejected | 20:59 |
| highvoltage | in the end we just need one good wallpaper, so one good concept that can be seen through to the end would even be enough imho. but then again I trust you to know best | 20:59 |
