Nice work. I think the lines on the scrollbar looks really tacky and is a little too much. Other than that, its a great start :) |

I dont see any performance difference either. The good thing about source based themes is they are much more dynamic. Pixmap themes are restricted on a lot of levels, especially when it comes to resizing and working nicely in a myriad of situations.
They are however much easier to work with and alter, at least for graphical people, perhaps not coders.
Theming in Linux really needs to get better and easier to do. It has an endless amount of potiental, yet only utilizes a small portion of that. |

Very nice theme. Just letting you know that it works just fine using the latest public release of Cairo 1.0.4.
Another person who is getting sick of round corners :) |

The name is Lokheed. It is insulting to keep "typo'ing" my name. At least take the second to double check the spelling. Show some effort! |

Hey when you do work for someone, you track all the hours.
I dont charge my clients an amount based on finished product, I charge the entire time spent. Sure it might take 8 hours to find 30 ways you don't want a button to look like, and only 8 minutes to get it exactly how you do want it. What's the total billable hours? 8.
Creative work doesn't spring foreward; everything in life requires planning and insight. Not unlike inventing.
It took 200 attempts to create electricity. When attacked by the media, Edison replied: "I didn't waste all that time, I found 200 ways NOT to make electricity."
If one can understand the moral behind that story, well they probably understand a lot more about art and about science ;)
Point is you cant look at a finished product and sum up its parts. Because a piece is much more than the sum of its parts. |

Spoken like a true artist and one who truly understands the workings behing my motives and behind it all (and quite eloquently I might add).
Its funny, whenever I am confronted with some shmuck who says my work is nothing special, I recall a guy who would go around and look at people work. The work was good and bad: a mixed bag of sorts. So for the bad, he would just snicker, the good he would quickly find out what was used and recite aloud (like a recipe list) what tecniques were used in a sarcastic tone. "Oh, that's easy, a joke, nothing but a lense flaire, contrast up, colour down, add one pixel border..." he would spew and conclude that the work was poor.
I was blown away at how some people think. Here is a perfect example on how simplicity: http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/29500520/
He was awarded a DD for his work and no doubt time. But I think all of us can do what he did ;) Does it take away from it? Not one bit.
Thanks for the kind words on my work. I think those that are art appreciators and those that have an eye for art, can see the great amount of effort I put into my work. Those are the people I cater too, people like yourself. The haters can go whistle for all I care ;) |

Well said respite, very well said. This was never meant as a stiffling of cimi's creative work. It was never meant as an attack on anyone's talents or workmanship.
Its a shame there arent more people like yourself respite. Epathy and intelligence are in short supply it seems. You certainly have my respect :) |

Dont go spreading rumours there pal. You have no clue, and only speculation to this assumption. You haven't spoken with me or know of any of my motives.
Stop spreading FUD and move on with your life cause I don't think mine really should concern you. |

Thank you. Nice to see someone rational and acting maturally. I will omit any negative post above from enter into this conversation (beyond this sentence).
My main concern is not about money. My main concern is protecting my digital rights. Money is not the only motive in this world (and I wish people would look pasy monetary gain or value, we are dealing with something more intrinsic here) and doesn't move me. My main concern is about losing my digital property.
If a person cannot understand what it means to paint the Mona Lisa only to have 3 other people paint her as well but with blond hair or a purple dress, then I cannot further exemplify my stance beyond what I have already said.
I will talk with cimi86 as he has been more professional and respectful in meeting my demands.
I again thank you for being understanding (ashame there aren't more people like you in this world) as art means a great deal to me; it is a part of myself and that is why I am motivated to take the actions I am taking.
Much respect and signing off,
Lokheed |
