DRM

A really nice analogy to DRM. Except for the MP3 bit at the end ;)

GIMP refresh

Thanks to the teamwork of Andreas Nilsson, William Szilvester, Lapo Calamandrei and myself, we have a new default icon theme in the upcoming version of GNU Image Manipulation Program. It follows the Tango style guidelines (surprise, surprise) so as a bonus it should also look more native on Windows XP (screenshots courtesy of Jernej Simoncic) and Mac OS X. I’ll be happy if somebody uses the comments area to post a screenshot of how GIMP looks under Mac OS X.

I should also mention that we’re open to contributions to the Art Libre set, which aims to unify the metaphors and perhaps create a single icon library for free software graphics packages such as GIMP, Inkscape, Blender, Diva etc.

That should make yafray happy. And bring me up to the average gnome developer. Just kidding (I hope).

It’s been a while since I made any photos that didn’t involve Linda.

The town of Liberec has bought the property back and will be reconstructing it for its original purpose. Can’t wait.
