[12:52] <scott-work> good morning
[13:01] <scott-work> shnatsel: here is what i have so far for the artwork blueprint:  https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntustudio/+spec/new-images-plymouth-lightdm-wallpaper
[13:01] <scott-work> it's kinda vague in some areas, but it's what i have
[13:02] <scott-work> and i used the wiki for the spec
[13:02] <scott-work> i know you really prefer google docs though
[13:04] <shnatsel> scott-work: I know wiki is preferred in processes of official derivatives, and it's probably more pleasant to read, the only problem about it is that collaboration is a PITA
[13:04] <shnatsel> scott-work: oh yeah, good morning :)
[13:06] <shnatsel> scott-work: issues with plymouth-x11 but not real boot probably indicate that there's a bug in multi-monitor support
[13:07] <shnatsel> scott-work: I think you should show it off in #ubuntu-design now and invite people to participate
[13:07] <shnatsel> scott-work: add proposals to the specification and blueprint
[13:07] <scott-work> shnatsel: show off the blueprint in #ubuntud-design?  i can do that
[13:07] <scott-work> #ubuntu-design
[13:08] <shnatsel> scott-work: yeah, and also contact doctormo directly I think
[13:09] <shnatsel> scott-work: a post to ubuntu artwork team list might help too
[13:09] <shnatsel> scott-work: though it's largely disbanded
[13:10] <scott-work> shnatsel: cool, i can do that too
[13:11] <shnatsel> scott-work: regarding the new xubuntu-based theme - it's so similar to elementary, and the icons are elementary set for sure
[13:12] <shnatsel> scott-work: the typography still needs work, though
[13:12] <shnatsel> scott-work: http://www.design-by-izo.com/2011/10/18/what-should-i-look-for-in-a-ui-typeface/
[13:13] <shnatsel> scott-work: and here are elementary font defaults, they're proven to work well: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5279564/elementary-os-fonts.png
[13:14]  * scott-work is looking
[13:14] <scott-work> shnatsel: xubuntu uses droid as default font
[13:14] <shnatsel> scott-work: even more so :)
[13:14] <scott-work> shnatsel: what do you think about ubuntu mono ?
[13:15] <shnatsel> scott-work: terrible
[13:15] <shnatsel> scott-work: well, it takes a while to get used to it, but it still looks awkward
[13:16] <shnatsel> scott-work: I like Ubuntu font for example, it's distinctive and readable and doesn't feel odd
[13:18] <shnatsel> scott-work: some decisions in ubuntu-mono are reasonable and I agree with the rationale behind them, but it still has some quirks and looks odd, especially when it's surrounded by droid sans or other conventional font
[13:19] <shnatsel> scott-work: g2g now. see you
[13:19] <scott-work> bye
[13:19] <scott-work> bam and you're gone :P
