Re: [ubuntu-art] art team meeting topics

2007-09-27 Thread xl cheese

I won't be able to make the meeting, but I'd like to be involved in creating a 
new HH theme.  Will someone send out meeting minutes?  

In the mean time I've had some free time to get the ball rolling.  I tossed 
this theme together to get a potential stake in the ground.  It's hosted on 
gnome-look out of not having a better place to stick it.  
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Hardy/Ideas#preview

Another idea I'd like to throw out is for us make an effort to take a huge leap 
forward and not just creating a new theme as we know themes.  We need to do 
something unheard of.  For example, I'd be nice to grab a window anywhere a 
button does not exist on the menubar and toolbar.

regards,
wes

 That should probably take up enough time for this meeting. Once we have these 
things settled the next meeting will include: a) defining concise design 
ideas for Hardy b) defining a palette for Hardy c) defining exactly what we 
want to change for Hardy (everything, basically) and how to get there --

Re: [ubuntu-art] art team meeting topics

2007-09-26 Thread nothlit
I suggest, that part of item two:

2) the process for contributions and a more accessible method to contribute

A Gallery system should be implemented (technical resources allowing)
for dedicated image submission, be it mockups, screenshots of themes,
etc. This would be far easier and cleaner to group an or artists work,
or a set of images following a theme together. Also, this would
alleviate the mass loading of images or the need to create thumbnails
and figure out the wiki system. This would allow for more structured
commenting and editing of works.

This would entail that the wiki would stop being used as a place to
place images, but left for writing guidelines and placing examples,
and written ideas.

I believe that this could potentially make a one easy place for anyone
to find, and see progress. Work would be done on mailing lists, irc
and the wiki of course, but it simplifies the image process. While
also giving the community a place to focus, and without all the work
clutter that would come from monitoring systems currently in place.

Thanks for your time, nothlit.
