doctormonmainerror: I'm not a fan of competitions generally. It's disrespectful to creators to dismiss so much time. But this looks simple enough.17:08
doctormonWhy are you thinking of joining in mainerror?17:08
doctormonI do like the simple plus though17:10
mainerrorOh, I'm not thinking about joining in, that simple plus one is mine actually. :)17:12
mainerrorI forgot that my name here doesn't match my name there.17:13
MrChrisDruifWhat are we talking about?17:13
doctormonthat's the mainerror with your name, yes.17:13
mainerrorMrChrisDruif: I have asked doctormon for some feedback on my Ask Ubuntu Google Plus logo proposal.17:15
MrChrisDruifAwesome, where is the link?17:16
MrChrisDruifI just missed it17:16
mainerrorhttp://meta.askubuntu.com/a/2633/273217:16
doctormonmainerror: Not a snerk or giggle about my pun. ;-)17:17
mainerrorOh right, sorry I totally missed that somehow. heh17:18
mainerror:D17:19
doctormonDid you see that design at the bottom?17:19
doctormonIt's interesting, but too complex IMO17:20
MrChrisDruifmainerror; the simple one with the plus in the orange talk cloud is yours?17:20
etnegtext in icons is a bad idea17:20
etnegyou do not want that IMHO17:20
mainerrorMrChrisDruif: Yes.17:22
MrChrisDruifetneg; agreed17:22
mainerroretneg: I agree.17:22
MrChrisDruifmainerror; I don't think it complies: "The logo must not be too similar to the Ask Ubuntu or Stack Exchange logo"17:23
* MrChrisDruif is off17:23
mainerrorWell the thing is that people should somehow recognize Ask Ubuntu from that Google Plus page.17:25
mainerrorAlso, no one can copyright a speech-bubble. :D17:25
mainerrorIf you could do that I'd definitely copyright the straight line and license it. heh17:26
etnegspeech bubble = overused :D17:30
etnegmy $0.02 opinion17:30
MrChrisDruifmainerror; you understood why I said it didn't comply with the "rules" right?19:05
mainerrorI assume because it is using an orange speech-bubble.19:06
MrChrisDruifYeah, pretty much ^_^19:07
mainerrorI guess the real meaning of that rule was to not have the Ask Ubuntu logo with the _ask_ text inside incorporated into your logo.19:07
MrChrisDruifI thought of another version of your icon. Only changing the colouring19:10
mainerrorTo what color?19:13
=== MacSlow is now known as MacSlow|afk
MrChrisDruifThe four colours of google(+)19:24
mainerrorMrChrisDruif: Like this? http://i.imgur.com/aXv5j.png19:51
mainerrorI don't know. I'm not a big fan.19:51
mainerrorThis could be a good icon for Google Plus itself but no one would make a connection between Ask Ubuntu and Google Plus from that icon.19:51
MrChrisDruifYeah, like that19:51
MrChrisDruifWould indeed be a good logo for google+ itself, maybe not so for AU on G+19:52
MrChrisDruifGot the .svg for that one for me?19:52
MrChrisDruifI'd like to use it on my wiki page ^_^19:52
MrChrisDruifmainerror; ^20:02
etnegthat isnt centered20:10
etnegmainerror^^20:10
etnegor is it?20:10
etnegjust going by the naked eye:P20:11
etneglooks nice20:11
=== mika___ is now known as mika__
mainerroretneg: It is perfectly centered. ;)21:12
etnegvery well then21:15
etneg:D21:15
etnegthe outer edges though have jagged lines21:15
etneglikely from using a mask21:15
mainerrorNope, that is just because it was PNG converted.21:21
mainerrorIt lost a bit of information there.21:21
mainerrorI have created it from scratch, so no Masks or stuff. :)21:21
etnegthats a bit odd it coming from a PNG export21:23
etnegmainerror: check your pvt22:02
etnegquery22:02
