| 00:32.49 | maquis | atoponce: i the truth is, printing just sucks |
| 00:33.54 | maquis | half the reason i prefer to email things around rather than printing them is the difficulty involved in actually getting my printer to communicate with anything |

| 03:22.28 | etank | stuporglue: im on the Kentucky team and I am going to try to get the team to start placing them anywhere that will let us |
| 03:22.33 | stuporglue | cool |
| 03:23.01 | etank | I've printed some on card stock and they hold up pretty well |
| 03:27.07 | stuporglue | Yeah. Plain paper wasn't working too well, but my wife's scrapbooking paper worked great |
| 03:27.43 | etank | I had to export it from inkscape to a jpeg to get the watermark look to the ubuntu logos |
| 03:27.54 | etank | it made the text a little fuzzy |
| 03:28.06 | etank | im still playing with it to get it just right |
| 03:29.58 | etank | it i print straight from the svg the text is clear but the watermark is full color instead of faded |
| 03:33.04 | stuporglue | Inkscape printing support is still kind of iffy. I think I exported to PDF before printing. If jpg is too fuzzy, and pdf doesn't work for you, png might work well. Inkscape pngs are pretty good. |
| 03:41.11 | etank | ill play with it some more and see what i can get. |
| 03:41.35 | etank | thanks again for creating it. |

| 17:07.02 | UtahBot | You might be a geek if you refer to using the bathroom as downloading. |

| 17:14.13 | maquis | see... ibot's version is even harder to miss... his is more computers in your lifetime than relationships |

| 20:37.57 | atoponce | hopefully, he can pull some strings. :) |
| 20:39.03 | redbeard1 | i don't understand. don't most of us meet in irc anyway? why set aside a special day and time? |
| 20:40.18 | atoponce | redbeard1: we're trying to reach the maximum audience that we can |
| 20:40.47 | atoponce | so, we think that having an official irc meet to cover topics as well as in person will help get some involved that normally wouldn't be |
| 20:41.12 | redbeard1 | interesting. |
| 20:41.29 | redbeard1 | where were you planning on advertising that? |
| 20:44.57 | atoponce | nothing is set yet. we're still in planning with it, i think |
| 20:45.20 | atoponce | but, if we do it, it'll be on the website, the forums and mailing list, as well as channel topic |
