 Here we're looking for someone who can make up a snazzy version of the
 Ubuntu logo to use for our Start Here image for the set. The one that
 appears in the menu applet. Here's what Oxygen did:

 just need a good Ubuntu logo. :)

 Must fit with what Sebastian is doing so far.

Here's by quick stab at it. (must stress the quick part)

Re: [ubuntu-art] [Breathe] SuperEarlyShouldn'tBeDoingThisIt'sTooSoonRelease

2009-02-08 Thread Manuel Mas
I have just used the early Breathe release and I must say that after reading
so much about it on the mailing list, I am glad to test it out finally.
Although it is by no means complete (and it's not intended to be at the
moment), I find that it is a great, modern icon set that truly matches
Ubuntu and gives the default Icon set a much needed bump in the behind.  I
am using it right now with New Wave 0.7.3+Gnome-DO 0.8 and Jaunty, and the
desktop couldn't look more modern or human.  Only thing that bothers me
for now at the moment with Breathe icon set is that the default icon for
folders seem to have a dark outline that is too dim, seems like a dark halo
around the whole folder.  Here is a picture of my desktop:

Keep up the good work.

[ubuntu-art] [Breathe] SuperEarlyShouldn'tBeDoingThisIt'sTooSoonRelease

2009-02-08 Thread Manuel Mas
OK, Sebastian did you update the icon set to fix the Trash icon not showing
on Gnome-Do?  I just read you noticed that and thought you had but I
downloaded the package and it is still the same.  Also, I have been raising
awareness on the Jaunty developer forums (since those are probably the most
active testers and enthusiasts available) and am getting opinions on both
New Wave and Breathe.  Here is the thread if you are interested on opinions:

Re: [ubuntu-art] Artwork Deadline One

2009-02-08 Thread Jake Tolbert
I think the idea here is really cool. and I like the majority of the art
there. but the jackalope itself, being so subtle, looked to me like a skull
or an alien head at first, which I don't think is the idea you're going for.

maybe make the view of the jackelope angled a bit more (rather than straight
on), or use lighter colors for the jackalope itself, perhaps.

still, a cool idea.

 I am not sure the desire, but 2.19.2009 is the deadline one for artwork.

 IMO we should have our submissions to the point they are submitted to
 the wiki for comments.

 To satisfy that desire I submitted a customizable Jaunty background to
 the wiki today.

 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Jaunty/Impression/Background

 Customizable means the canvas is transparent so the desired background
 color will need to be defined in Appearance Preferences Gnome dialogue.

 I suggest theme engines be locked down on 2/19 in order to provide
 adequate time for packaging and testing.

 The last svn check-in for the Murrine engine is version 137 but the
 latest package is 136.

 https://launchpad.net/~suraia/+archive/ppahttps://launchpad.net/%7Esuraia/+archive/ppa

 I am satisfied with Murrine either way.

 Ken Wimer, do you have any comments?

 John
