| sakrecoer_ | nice work on the wiki cfhowlett ! :) | 15:23 |
| sakrecoer_ | very good! thank you! | 15:23 |
| cfhowlett | sakrecoer_, thanks. we need to narrow the window on the contest to beat the feature freeze so only 5 weeks | 15:24 |
| cfhowlett | also: need to work with PR? to get the word out on the contest. or is that on us as well? | 15:24 |
| sakrecoer_ | cfhowlett: "or is that on us as well?" what do you mean by that? | 15:28 |
| cfhowlett | are we expected to get the word ou t to all the media/blogs/etc or should / shouldn't the PR team do that? | 15:28 |
| sakrecoer_ | well... it seems like we ARE the PR team :) | 15:29 |
| sakrecoer_ | at least i am in it :) | 15:29 |
| cfhowlett | sakrecoer_, OK then. Can I delegate to you: get the first paragraph of the wiki out to all the likely media outlets and include the URL of the wiki | 15:30 |
| cfhowlett | ? | 15:30 |
| sakrecoer_ | ok :) | 15:30 |
| sakrecoer_ | zequence: is it thru https://rt.ubuntu.com/ that we post content to the website? | 15:31 |
| cfhowlett | also: it is worth mentioning that we need to prepare the wallpaper package and I have NEVER packaged anything! | 15:34 |
| sakrecoer_ | zequence is writing this for us: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio/UbuntuStudioPackageMaintenance cfhowlett | 15:35 |
| cfhowlett | I don't even have a firm grasp on bzr, so I truly hope someone can help with this. | 15:36 |
| sakrecoer_ | i think zequence will assist us for a while, and i intend on learning this thoroughly as fast as possible :) | 15:53 |
| sakrecoer_ | cfhowlett | 15:53 |
| cfhowlett | yeah ... | 15:53 |
| cfhowlett | Well, we can certainly launch the contest immediately and see to packaging later | 15:58 |
| sakrecoer_ | https://plus.google.com/102125777892703446963/posts/91t3hFe3we4 | 16:07 |
| cfhowlett | sakrecoer_, that for me? | 16:07 |
| sakrecoer_ | its the post on the google plus page.. | 16:08 |
| sakrecoer_ | i don't have facebook tho.. | 16:08 |
| cfhowlett | if so ... china + google = NO GO ... | 16:08 |
| sakrecoer_ | haha! right... | 16:08 |
| sakrecoer_ | is it blocked, or accessible but with police knocking on door 20 seconds lateR? | 16:09 |
| cfhowlett | blocked. | 16:09 |
| sakrecoer_ | i'm not too fund of google, so i have mitigated feeling about that particular block :D | 16:10 |
| cfhowlett | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio/Artwork/UserShowcase | 16:31 |
| zequence | cfhowlett: Zak is the art lead, who has been very much abscent. | 16:51 |
| cfhowlett | yeah, real life will do that :) | 16:52 |
| zequence | Think I gave you a link to the correct text logo. If I didn't, I'm sorry for that | 16:52 |
| cfhowlett | please do! I must have missed it. | 16:52 |
| zequence | cfhowlett: It's the one called ubuntu-studio_1304_OK_brandmark-wordmark_04_a_alternate-wordmark_by_madeinkobaia.svg | 16:53 |
| zequence | It's actually not the alternate anymore :) | 16:53 |
| zequence | madeinkobaia, that's Zak's nick | 16:53 |
| cfhowlett | so that'll be in the bzr right | 16:54 |
| zequence | Right | 16:54 |
| zequence | In the root folder | 16:54 |
| zequence | The non alternate should probably be called the alternate, and is ok to use too, I suppose | 16:54 |
| zequence | Both have less space between the letters than the original text done with the UBuntu fonts | 16:55 |
| cfhowlett | and this is the official version? | 16:55 |
| zequence | Yes. It's what we use on all our merchandise, social channels | 16:56 |
| zequence | The website has yet not been updated with the new text | 16:56 |
| zequence | cfhowlett: I changed the sidebar to the artwork sidebar on your page. Also, added the link to that page to the side bar. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio/Artwork/UserShowcase | 16:59 |
| cfhowlett | nice! | 17:00 |
| cfhowlett | So which of these brandmarks and logos are approved for use? the "current standard" text only lists ONE ... | 17:01 |
| zequence | cfhowlett: The one named alternate is the first choice. And, that should really be enough | 17:02 |
| zequence | It is the current standard, just as the text file says | 17:04 |
| cfhowlett | no circle logo? | 17:04 |
| zequence | Let me see if I can find that | 17:05 |
| cfhowlett | It would be helpful to have the list of approved assets centrally located somewhere. I attempted to provide this on the Showcase page, but my information is clearly outdated. | 17:07 |
| zequence | cfhowlett: This is why I created the textfile | 17:10 |
| zequence | The whole area of artwork is a mess. No one even knows who created the original artwork | 17:10 |
| zequence | Ok, so I found the website version of the text logo | 17:10 |
| zequence | It has the CoF, but it's the non alternate version | 17:11 |
| zequence | Zak is really the one who should provide all the variants though, so you should talk to him | 17:11 |
| zequence | To get the text logo with the CoF, get the website theme, with the command: bzr branch lp:ubuntustudio-website | 17:11 |
| cfhowlett | Hmmm. Thought he said he'd be unavailable for the foreseeable future. | 17:11 |
| zequence | A couple of weeks, yes. Not sure how long that is though | 17:12 |
| cfhowlett | I've got the bzr file, just not sure which assets are approved for use | 17:12 |
| zequence | The file in questions is found by path ubuntustudio-website/ubuntustudio-wp/img/us-logo.png | 17:13 |
| zequence | cfhowlett: The bzr file lists the two files by path, relative to that file | 17:14 |
| zequence | Those two are approved | 17:14 |
| zequence | I won't have time today, but I can make an attempt at cleaning up that branch | 17:14 |
| zequence | Most of the stuff in there is outdated | 17:14 |
| cfhowlett | I'm sure we would all be grateful! If nothing else, updating the current standards file would clarify many matters | 17:15 |
| zequence | Ok, well, I won't have time today. Maybe not until Friday. I'll do it before the weekend though | 17:16 |
| cfhowlett | much appreciated!! | 17:16 |
| zequence | np | 17:16 |
| sakrecoer_ | zequence: cfhowlett: it's is in the 16.04 folder in the root folder :) | 17:22 |
| cfhowlett | "it" ??? | 17:22 |
| sakrecoer_ | sorry, the text logo | 17:22 |
| cfhowlett | OK | 17:22 |
| sakrecoer_ | ubuntu-studio_1604_brandmark-wordmark_03_a_-_by_madeinkobaia | 17:22 |
| sakrecoer_ | .svg | 17:22 |
| cfhowlett | I'll pull the assets I misplaced on the wiki | 17:23 |
| sakrecoer_ | it's the same as the one zequence told you, but renamed to 16.04 and with "alternate" removed... | 17:24 |
| cfhowlett | OK | 17:24 |
| sakrecoer_ | zequence: i cleaned the artwork pack 3-4 weeks ago... | 17:24 |
| sakrecoer_ | oh wait... no.... it's the wrong one... | 17:25 |
| sakrecoer_ | the alternate one is white... | 17:25 |
| sakrecoer_ | and the one i put in the 16.04 folder is black and not as classy... | 17:26 |
| sakrecoer_ | let me fix that... | 17:26 |
| sakrecoer_ | arf... missed cfhowlett, hopefully he will pull after i fixed that... | 17:33 |
| sakrecoer_ | let it keep the name you posted here zequence to avoid further confusino | 17:34 |
