ochosi | knome: what do you think of this replacement for the current xfwm4-icon (in settings-manager): http://imagebin.org/189667 | 08:39 |
---|---|---|
knome | ochosi, i'm not sure. is the window shaded? | 11:37 |
ochosi | knome: well kinda. i wanted to focus on the decoration, i think any window content would make the icon less clear | 12:59 |
knome | i suppose, but what about just grey block? | 13:09 |
knome | anybody testing 12.04 available? | 13:11 |
ochosi | hm, i can try, but i think it might look odd | 13:11 |
knome | maybe | 13:11 |
knome | or then just remove the BG-image | 13:11 |
knome | just draw the window :) | 13:11 |
knome | (== replace BG-image with grey) | 13:11 |
ochosi | looks empty: http://imagebin.org/189701 | 13:12 |
knome | don't use white, use grey | 13:13 |
knome | also, what does that look in context? | 13:13 |
knome | isn't that what matters most :) | 13:13 |
ochosi | grey: http://imagebin.org/189702 | 13:14 |
knome | mmmh. maybe little lighter | 13:14 |
knome | but i think that's okayish | 13:14 |
knome | you could add some "text" in it like the notification icon | 13:15 |
knome | or textboxes | 13:15 |
knome | something very subtle | 13:15 |
knome | i can draw that too if you want | 13:15 |
ochosi | in context: http://imagebin.org/189703 | 13:17 |
ochosi | (and brighter grey) | 13:17 |
ochosi | yeah, if you could that'd be nice | 13:17 |
ochosi | i'm not sure i have a good idea of what you would wanna do | 13:17 |
knome | oki, just a sec, i'll fix the meeting agenda first | 13:17 |
ochosi | another option is to show more than one window | 13:17 |
ochosi | a bit like in sessions and startup | 13:17 |
ochosi | or just two windows stacked on top of each other | 13:18 |
ochosi | i think the wm-tweaks should then also be changed accordingly | 13:18 |
ochosi | i like the wand-metaphor though | 13:18 |
knome | mmh | 13:19 |
knome | i think the xfwm part in that icon looks a bit big | 13:19 |
ochosi | you mean the close,max,min buttons? | 13:20 |
ochosi | or the window-border as a whole | 13:20 |
knome | as whole | 13:22 |
knome | let me start a *cough* image editor | 13:22 |
knome | what's the image size again? | 13:24 |
ochosi | 48px | 13:24 |
knome | oki | 13:24 |
ochosi | do you want the svg? | 13:24 |
knome | nope | 13:24 |
knome | going pixel-editing | 13:24 |
knome | ochosi, http://temp.knome.fi/xubuntu/precise_icons/win_man.jpg | 13:36 |
knome | textboxes could be more sublte | 13:36 |
knome | *subtle | 13:36 |
ochosi | mm, doesn't look half-bad | 14:11 |
ochosi | i think subtler textboxes would be better | 14:12 |
ochosi | window-content shouldn't stand out too much | 14:12 |
knome | yup | 14:25 |
knome | http://temp.knome.fi/xubuntu/precise_icons/win_man-2.jpg | 14:26 |
ochosi | hm, i'm thinking whether an "ok" button in the bottom-right corner would look good | 14:27 |
ochosi | i mean in general it's already nice | 14:27 |
knome | heh | 14:27 |
ochosi | maybe "cancel" and "apply" (without the text, just empty buttons) | 14:28 |
knome | http://temp.knome.fi/xubuntu/precise_icons/win_man-3.jpg | 14:29 |
ochosi | is it my poor eyes or is the left one a tad smaller? :) | 14:31 |
ochosi | i think i like that | 14:31 |
knome | yup, they're the same size :P | 14:35 |
ochosi | k, do you wanna keep it a png or vectorize it? | 14:37 |
knome | might be hard to vectorize | 14:38 |
knome | not sure if it's worth it | 14:38 |
ochosi | mhm, we'll have to check whether svg and png work alongside in the icon-theme | 14:38 |
