  6. Re: Some extra icons for cairo-dock diamond theme.

    Those icons look awesome! There are a few that are a little pixelated (if you want some constructive criticism) but over all, I think they look great! Don't feel bad if no one comments. That just...

    Re: Ubuntu studio CD art

    GIMP is great for final touches, but vector is awesome due to its scaling abilities. I haven't tried Picasa yet. Good luck.

    When using After Effects, they recommend I have a graphics card dedicated to the program. And the watts are to power the card(s). I read that the recommended wattage was 175, so 10 more because I...

    Re: Ubuntu artwork for use on websites

    When Ubuntu first came out, it was called "Porn Linux" cuz Mark wanted artsy naked people on the it, so I can't see why it would be an issue now. That was brilliant marketing.

    Re: Ubuntu studio CD art
