[ubuntu-art] Hello

2009-06-17 Thread Jeffrey Tyler Carpenter
Hello,
 My name is Jeff. I am joining the Art Team as well as another to work on my
art and programming skills.
I am currently in the process of installing Ubuntu 9.10 and will hopefully
be helping all of you with the art and
development of 9.10 for it's full release. I have been using Ubuntu for
about four years now, so I am familiar
with the interface and feel of the system. I am not a professional at
graphic design or programming but I hope
everyone here will help me if I have any questions.
 I saw that you were going for a Mac look in the new theme. I own a Mac, so
I may be able to help with the
theme and icons.
Thank you,
 Jeff

Hi,
Looks good :)

Thorwil still felt that the horns looked pasted on, his suggestion was:
"try copying the horn shape, make it a bit smaller, narrower, apply the
brightest color from the face gradient and blur"

I like this gradient better... Shine works well now... but i have a few
thoughts... could you ping me in the irc?

I like the glasses, but i feel the mouth could be brown as the rest of
the smileys. [if not the whole mouth , atleast the stroke color could be
the same as the rest.]

cheers,
mac_v

I uploaded new versions, using a better gradient and light red/orange shine.
I also added a face-glasses icon.

I know it's not licensed by apple! I'm talking about the transmission
developers. Someone did design the 512px icon which is used when they
compile for Mac. I'm just pointing out that as it stands now this svg
icon is plagiarism and cannot be legally included into the breath icon
set.

Yeap ;-)

I think that the icon belongs to the program, it is not licenced by
apple.

In any case, we must investigate

Transmission is default torrent application Ubuntu. And by puting it
under the transmission icon name it will only be used for the
transmission application (not any other torrent application and not
for mime/torrent)


As for icon itself you need to contact upstream or who-ever design the
icon for Mac. Although you have recreated the icon from scratch it is
still derived work and if it goes into the icon theme it needs to be
license under compatible license. Currently Breathe is under
CC-BY-SA-3 while Majoirity of Transmission is MIT, portions are under
GPL and LGPL. The later two are not compatible with CC-BY-SA-3

I love the icon but welcome to the license profiliation world ;-)

Best option IMHO is to try to submit this icon upstream. Or ask them
if they have SVG already / or ask permission to license your icon
under CC-BY-SA-3.

Thanks, but the work is done. Which was much of the point of my previous
mail ;)
