| etneg_ | hey kenvandine | 13:55 |
| etneg_ | morning | 13:55 |
| etneg_ | wow lot of feedback | 13:55 |
| MrChrisDruif | On what etneg_ ? | 13:56 |
| etneg_ | oh gwibber logo | 13:56 |
| MrChrisDruif | Ah, that ^_^ | 13:56 |
| kenvandine | etneg_, oh... i just noticed OMG picked it up :) | 13:58 |
| etneg_ | kenvandine: ye | 13:58 |
| etneg_ | lot oftrolling going on there | 13:58 |
| etneg_ | kenvandine: people are beginning to think the "logo" is the icon | 13:59 |
| etneg_ | i didnt do a version for the logo | 13:59 |
| etneg_ | heh | 13:59 |
| etneg_ | oops correction | 13:59 |
| kenvandine | :) | 13:59 |
| etneg_ | i didnt do a version for the icon | 13:59 |
| etneg_ | as an icon the logo would have to be brought down a bit,some elements removed | 14:00 |
| etneg_ | but thats pretty sweet, lot of feedback | 14:02 |
| etneg_ | kenvandine: based on what's going on now, do you want revisions or new concepts? | 14:03 |
| kenvandine | etneg_, it would be nice to also include icon versions based on the logo | 14:05 |
| etneg_ | yeh i'll do that now | 14:05 |
| kenvandine | as for revisions, if you want to update the existing concepts lets make them like 1.1 , 1.2, etc | 14:06 |
| kenvandine | so they can gather feedback separately from the original | 14:06 |
| === MacSlow|lunch is now known as MacSlow | ||
| etneg_ | i didnt get you, sorry | 14:07 |
| etneg_ | i label it 1.1 and 1.2 and so on ? | 14:07 |
| kenvandine | yes | 14:09 |
| kenvandine | with separate space for feedback | 14:09 |
| kenvandine | etneg_, you can just post them right on the wiki page | 14:10 |
| etneg_ | ok | 14:10 |
| kenvandine | so put concept 1.1 under the feedback section of concept 1 and add a heading and empty bullet line for feedback | 14:10 |
| etneg_ | ok | 14:12 |
| MrChrisDruif | What are the differences between the logo and the icon? =/ | 14:13 |
| etneg_ | well sometimes if the logo is "busy" you tone it down for the icon | 14:15 |
| etneg_ | icons are kept simpler | 14:15 |
| etneg_ | you just pull out the key elements that make up the logo for the icon and you're done | 14:15 |
| etneg_ | atleast that's what i usually do | 14:15 |
| MrChrisDruif | True | 14:16 |
| MrChrisDruif | But busy logo are wrong in the first place ;-) | 14:17 |
| MrChrisDruif | However, sometimes/most of the time "logo's" include the name in a certain font | 14:18 |
| etneg_ | wordmark? | 14:20 |
| etneg_ | some use wordmarks and some dont | 14:20 |
| etneg_ | depends on the client's taste really | 14:21 |
| MrChrisDruif | Wordmarks? | 14:23 |
| kenvandine | i really prefer not having the name in the logo | 14:24 |
| MrChrisDruif | I've heard once that the Dutch were experts in the use of fonts etc back in the 1900's | 14:24 |
| etneg_ | kenvandine: really? | 14:24 |
| kenvandine | personally, i prefer logos that are recognizable without that | 14:24 |
| MrChrisDruif | Indeed | 14:24 |
| kenvandine | etneg_, like on the website we would have the name in the header next to or below the logo | 14:24 |
| etneg_ | right | 14:25 |
| kenvandine | but the logo should represent the spirit of the app, not the name of the app | 14:25 |
| MrChrisDruif | kenvandine; I agree | 14:25 |
| etneg_ | did you mean no text in the icon ? | 14:25 |
| MrChrisDruif | Or company! | 14:25 |
| kenvandine | etneg_, yeah... no text in the icon for sure | 14:25 |
| kenvandine | but even for the logo | 14:25 |
| etneg_ | oh ok | 14:25 |
| kenvandine | don't make the name part of the logo | 14:25 |
| etneg_ | for the icon i just toned it up a bit | 14:25 |
| kenvandine | cool | 14:26 |
| MrChrisDruif | kenvandine; depends on the situation I'd say | 14:26 |
| etneg_ | no text and the smiley glass faces are not visible there | 14:26 |
| MrChrisDruif | I should reinstall this PC...or remove all the cruft from things I don't use | 14:26 |
| kenvandine | etneg_, personally i really love concept 1 | 14:26 |
| MrChrisDruif | It's a bit slow | 14:26 |
| etneg_ | kenvandine: if you want to keep the logo without text, no issues there but just seeing a logo without a name on it is almostlike faceless | 14:27 |
| etneg_ | you know what i mean | 14:27 |
| etneg_ | if im someone who doesnt know nothing about gwibber, and im looking at a gwibber logo on some ref page along with twitter and the rest, it doesnt tell you | 14:27 |
| kenvandine | that is why in places like the header of a website you would put the name near it, for identity purposes | 14:27 |
| etneg_ | what if someone used the gwibber logo on their page? | 14:27 |
| etneg_ | without a name you cant tell | 14:28 |
| etneg_ | you're talking about using it on the gwibber.com page which is fine | 14:28 |
| kenvandine | in that case we should probably have a horizontal version with the name next to it | 14:28 |
| kenvandine | and some branding guidelines | 14:28 |
| kenvandine | for use | 14:28 |
| etneg_ | oh ye | 14:28 |
| etneg_ | i could remove the text and for those wanting to use it on their page or something, we could have one with the name on it i suppose? | 14:29 |
| etneg_ | have you seen the (RED) logo concepts?if you got the time, take a look at it | 14:30 |
| etneg_ | it's an interesting way to have people use your logo and incorporate their product logo into it wthout killing the aesthetics of the key product logo | 14:30 |
| MrChrisDruif | etneg_; I'm not catching your drift? | 14:32 |
| etneg_ | http://www.joinred.com/red/#shopred | 14:33 |
| etneg_ | ^^ | 14:33 |
| etneg_ | key product logo (RED) | 14:33 |
| etneg_ | on that page other products trying to collaborate with it | 14:33 |
| etneg_ | (CocaCola)^red. Cocacola has kept their logo there and supports red but they key element there is still the red logo because of the curved brackets | 14:34 |
| etneg_ | so if i took " MrChrisDruif " and put it in a red bracket as ( MrChrisDruif )^red, it'll instantly hit me that you're part of the red foundation | 14:35 |
| MrChrisDruif | Ghehe ^_^ | 14:36 |
| etneg_ | nice concept eh? | 14:36 |
| etneg_ | heh | 14:36 |
| MrChrisDruif | Ah, and IT is for/against AIDS | 14:37 |
| etneg_ | ye | 14:37 |
| MrChrisDruif | Awesome | 14:38 |
| etneg_ | the logo belongs to U2 | 14:39 |
| etneg_ | it's unlikely one of us could get away with that bracket + RED as a logo without someone suing our ass for some sort of trademark infringement | 14:40 |
| etneg_ | i bet he must have paid quite a sum to get by that, just my 2 cents assumption | 14:40 |
| MrChrisDruif | etneg_; /s/red/blue ;-) | 14:44 |
| etneg_ | heh gl | 14:45 |
| MrChrisDruif | jk | 14:45 |
| etneg_ | ok just uploaded 1.1 icon version | 14:51 |
| etneg_ | kenvandine: if you have another concept in mind i could do one now | 15:05 |
| etneg_ | something different to concept 1 or 2 | 15:05 |
| kenvandine | etneg_, nothing now... but if you have ideas :) | 15:07 |
| etneg_ | i do, but if you have one, i could work on that first | 15:07 |
| etneg_ | :D | 15:07 |
| etneg_ | but ok | 15:07 |

| SirLinux` | Hello | 21:01 |
| kenvandine | etneg_, pong | 21:02 |
| etneg_ | kenvandine: http://i41.tinypic.com/t0rhio.png | 21:02 |
| etneg_ | didnt put it on the wiki yet, but your thoughts | 21:02 |
| kenvandine | etneg_, sorry, i don't get the concept. a book with a page turned? | 21:03 |
| etneg_ | ye | 21:04 |
| kenvandine | it's nice looking, but i don't see it as being "social" | 21:04 |
| etneg_ | blogging as in writing down in a diary | 21:04 |
| etneg_ | oh the social part i didnt convey in this | 21:05 |
| kenvandine | etneg_, sorry... yeah concept is a bit of imho | 21:05 |
| SirLinux` | what image size we should use for the wallpapers ? | 21:06 |
| etneg_ | kenvandine: ok | 21:07 |
| SirLinux` | for the Precise Pangolin wallpaper submissions | 21:07 |
| etneg_ | do you want me to modify it to add social element | 21:07 |
| etneg_ | ? | 21:07 |
| etneg_ | or i could work on another concept | 21:08 |
| kenvandine | etneg_, something else | 21:08 |
| kenvandine | thx though | 21:08 |
| etneg_ | ok np | 21:08 |
| kenvandine | etneg_, i still love concept 1 :) | 21:08 |
| etneg_ | okLD | 21:08 |
| etneg_ | do you want to modify concept 1 ? | 21:08 |
| kenvandine | etneg_, it is up to you, if you want to take some of the feedback and make some revisions | 21:09 |
| kenvandine | that would be cool | 21:09 |
| etneg_ | well i did a revision for the icon part | 21:09 |
| etneg_ | removed the faces for the icon | 21:09 |
| etneg_ | i'll see what i can come up with | 21:09 |
| kenvandine | etneg_, thx | 21:11 |
| etneg_ | np | 21:12 |
| thorwil | SirLinux`: aiming at 2650 x 1600 allows use on any common monitor | 21:28 |
| thorwil | SirLinux`: you might want to take a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Documentation/Backgrounds#Templates | 21:30 |
| etneg_ | kenvandine: http://i43.tinypic.com/mald1w.png | 21:37 |
| etneg_ | i havent colored it or prettified it, the concept ok? | 21:37 |
| etneg_ | kenvandine: ping | 22:35 |
| SirLinux` | made it 1920x1080 | 22:58 |
| SirLinux` | http://www.flickr.com/photos/33589237@N00/6853434887/in/pool-1860176@N24/lightbox/ | 22:58 |
| etneg_ | what is that? | 22:58 |
| etneg_ | using blender? | 22:58 |
| SirLinux` | excuse me ? | 22:59 |
| MrChrisDruif | What did you use to create that SirLinux` is what etneg_ meant | 23:00 |
| SirLinux` | oh .. i used cinema 4d. | 23:00 |
| MrChrisDruif | So a reference to the old colouring scheme? | 23:00 |
| SirLinux` | yeah and a 3d logo :) | 23:01 |
| MrChrisDruif | Ghehe | 23:02 |
| etneg_ | ah cinema 4d | 23:03 |
| etneg_ | like what 20 mins work i bet | 23:04 |
| etneg_ | if i had to vectorise that sucker, well atleast an hr | 23:04 |
| MrChrisDruif | etneg_; "sucker" might not be a very friendly word for it, maybe you could try "piece of work" next time? ^_^ Just sayin' ^_^ | 23:06 |
| etneg_ | oh right ok | 23:07 |
| etneg_ | :D | 23:07 |
| MrChrisDruif | ^_^ | 23:07 |
| etneg_ | just saying, vectorising that would be so time consuming | 23:07 |
| SirLinux` | etneg_ well , kinda | 23:07 |
| etneg_ | ive been meaning to go into 3d as well | 23:07 |
| SirLinux` | 20 - 30 minutes | 23:07 |
| etneg_ | atleast for some tasks | 23:07 |
| etneg_ | havent gotten my new machine yet, once it's here, either cinema4d or blender and the awesome zbrush = total awesomeness | 23:08 |
| etneg_ | ive heard some good stuff aboout cinema4d | 23:13 |
| SirLinux` | yeah but you need good pc | 23:14 |
| SirLinux` | this notebook i use for such works, is a i7 cpu with 4 gb ram ( sony vaio ) and is kinda slow while rendering | 23:14 |
| etneg_ | well the machine im building and i just orderered for the parts | 23:15 |
| etneg_ | is an i7 2600k, sli 580s with 3gb, and a nice cooling system, 16gb ram 1800, etc | 23:16 |
| etneg_ | i'll oc that and i should do fine | 23:16 |
| etneg_ | even if i didnt oc it, it'll do fine | 23:16 |
| etneg_ | rendering is tricky | 23:17 |
| etneg_ | gpu or cpu? | 23:17 |
| etneg_ | varries with each | 23:17 |
| etneg_ | i mean solidworks + GTX = poor performances | 23:17 |
| etneg_ | solidworks + quadro = major performance because of the drivers that are customised for solidworks | 23:18 |
| etneg_ | blender and a quadro? forget it, might as well stick with teh GTX | 23:18 |
| etneg_ | you have to understand, 5 yrs ago people did some awesome work in 3d without all this hardware, think about it... | 23:19 |
| etneg_ | so i wouldnt exactly count on a rock solid machine to produce quality work, might need some talent too:P | 23:20 |
| SirLinux` | hmm | 23:21 |
| SirLinux` | nice specs there | 23:21 |
| SirLinux` | rendering : cpu | 23:21 |
| etneg_ | ah k | 23:21 |
| etneg_ | oh a laptop? | 23:22 |
| etneg_ | hehe | 23:22 |
| etneg_ | seriously get a workstation, it'll be less painful | 23:22 |
| etneg_ | or just a desktop | 23:22 |
| etneg_ | i have the new xps but you dont wanna heat those guys up, they'll cry for miles | 23:23 |
| SirLinux` | i was thinkin to get a imac full speks | 23:23 |
| SirLinux` | specs * | 23:23 |
| etneg_ | for that price? | 23:23 |
| etneg_ | why bother | 23:23 |
| etneg_ | build it dude | 23:24 |
| etneg_ | alrihg togtta jetfor a bit | 23:25 |
