Re: [ubuntu-art] Gwibber icon

[Mr. Andrzejak]

Sergei's purple icon design would blend very well with the other new purple
lucid icons. I could do a mock up of the lucid indicator applet pulled down
showing the purple gwibber icon.

Best Regards, Dave

Hi Serge,
In Humanity , We dont usually change the branding of applications.[Else
there are a lot of icons we would like to change ;p] 
For baobab , the icon was quite old and hence had to be updated for a
default install.
For Humanity-icon-theme we tried to replace all the icons in
Human-icon-theme , The OOo icons were included in the Human theme and
hence done for Humanity similarly several others. A few other changes
have been due to the design team asking us to update the icon.

IMO, Original gwibber icon isnt /that/ bad to warrant a replacement.
And its too late in the UI freeze to make such replacements too.

If you are interested in fixing icons, there are a few open bugs in
humanity you can help out with :-)

Never used Gwibber, but your icon seems too cluttered, maybe remove the
navigation lines.

Thanks, Bruno!
I've asked a 
questionin
Launchpad and it was converted to a bug
#544959against
Humanity icon theme. I'm looking forward to a response.

Serge,

That's a great icon! I like the orange version too. Now, in terms of
getting it included in the distro, the gwibber package page [1] shows
the maintainer as the Ubuntu core developers. So either ask the question
via Launchpad (you have a link on page [1]) or send an email to the
ubuntu-devel mailing list and someone should be able to tell you what
the procedure is.

Here's the purple version: http://shnatsel.narod.ru/gwibber_purple.svg It
got a bit darker and should fit the new dark theme.

Re: [ubuntu-art] Gwibber icon

[Сергей]

Thank you for your feedback, I'll try to recolor it to purple. What about
those white dots and lines on the surface? Shall I move them closer to the
center to make them more visible, or it's unneeded?
Humanity theme sometimes replaces upstream icons - for example, baobab,
gedit, system monitor, openoffice, etc. In my opinion, this icon is
Ubuntu-specific. I doubt that upstream will accept it.

Cheers,
Serge.

Re: [ubuntu-art] Gwibber icon

[Nate Wiebe]

Great icon! I hope it gets replaced by this, but I'm thinking that since it is 
a program icon, it will be up to the Gwibber team. Hopefully they will replace 
the icon, I really don't like the current Gwibber icon, it seems like it is 
from 1998.

Sergei,
I really like your design for Gwibber. Even a purple icon would be nice too.

[ubuntu-art] Gwibber icon

[Сергей]

Hello everybody,
I'm new to this list and I'm not sure if it's the right thing to post such
ideas, but creating a separate page in /Incoming for such a trifle seems
ridiculous.
I've been testing Lucid beta-1 recently and noticed Gwibber pre-installed in
it. I liked the program, but its icon seemed ugly and alien to Ubuntu
environment. I tried to spruce it up a bit and use the same idea. That's
what I got out of Karmic icons:
http://shnatsel.narod.ru/gwibber_proof-of-concept.svg It's just an
illustration of the idea, but I hope that a more experienced artist will
rework it or something and the next release will have a fancier icon.

Best wishes,
Sergey "Shnatsel" Davidoff
