[01:28] <daviey> Any budding artists mind throwing a usplash picture together?
[01:42] <kwwii> erm, not sure if it is possible to "throw" one together :-)
[01:45] <kwwii> daviey: exactly what do you need?
[01:48] <daviey> hmm
[01:48] <daviey> wait 1
[01:48] <daviey> can i email/dcc what i have done?
[01:50] <daviey> I basically need a 'well polished' usplash picture for 'mythbuntu' (MythTV & Ubuntu dedicated distro)
[01:52] <kwwii> daviey: well, you have to know that it is only 256 colors so there are some restrictions
[01:52] <kwwii> but I will help in any way possible :-)
[01:53] <daviey> yeah, i have made one and compiled it - but it looks amateurish.
[01:55] <kwwii> can you post a pic?
[01:57] <daviey> http://img300.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mythbuntuuu6.jpg
[01:57] <daviey> sorry
[01:57] <daviey> http://img300.imageshack.us/img300/6382/mythbuntuuu6.jpg
[01:59] <kwwii> ouch, yeah...that would be hard to do with so few colors :-)
[01:59] <daviey> that is 256 colours
[02:01] <kwwii> one thing that would make things easier would be to put the whole thing on a solid bg
[02:01] <kwwii> it looks like it is on a gradient now, am I right?
[02:02] <daviey> yes
[02:02] <daviey> it's shamelessly stolen from a bg on gnome-look
[02:02] <kwwii> ;-)
[02:02] <kwwii> I would suggest trying to put it on a solid blue color
[02:04] <daviey> I could try that. Is there an easy way to convert a truecolour image to 256 using GIMP? I had to save it as GIF then resave it as a png
[02:05] <kwwii> just go into the image menu and click on the indexed entry
[02:05] <kwwii> it will open a pop-up
[02:06] <kwwii> image-->mode-->indexed
[02:06] <kwwii> and note that rastering the pic is probably not the best idea
[02:07] <daviey> ahh, i see
[02:07] <daviey> rastering?
[02:08] <kwwii> erm, dithering, I meant
[02:08] <daviey> ahh

[07:04] <kwwii> busy fixing my mistake in the kubuntu usplash atm :-(
[07:04] <bersace> aren't you the original author of this gdm theme ?
[07:04] <kwwii> bersace: well, I am one of the authors, I guess
[07:04] <bersace> me too :)
[07:05] <kwwii> I didn't put my name in any of the files :p
[07:05] <bersace> at least, we are a team :)
[07:05] <kwwii> yeah :-)
