Stamping Review

Yes, so the "stamping" idea is great and translates-obviously, so the U.I. example on my page would have the Review Squad represented by a "half-mask" (instead of the whole one, like the initial one I made-which will be basically the icon in the end, just tweaked) that has the ability to have a "Meeting/Discourse of Importance" with another Reviewer. So, obviously, some one would have to implement this in a sort of program or that kind of atmosphere.

But, it would be Really awesome if, say, your stamp was their stamp of approval, or that they had even had a "meeting" on a subject, kind of like a flag, automatically really really delineating them from the rest of the Users. (This of course introduces competition, which, in learning, is going to be inherent, but also needs to be a bit encouraged-raising the bar). Let me know what you think about that, this could be really cool if we could get someone to implement it.-Delucks 09:36, 1 August 2007 (EDT)Delucks

Re: New Icon

ok, let me know if my words went anywhere-Delucks 09:36, 1 August 2007 (EDT)Delucks

Ok, I have a few comments about the review squad. Maybe I misunderstood what the review squad is to be :) . I thought of it of something to be maintained and developed locally where the XO's are delivered, as a sort of peer reviewing system, which would involve the XO owners (kids), their parents, teachers, etc. Any XO owner (kid) could become a Reviewer for content and activities. He would provide his reviews, and be part of the local (school?) XO kids review group. Any educator could become a reviewer for content and activities. He would provide his reviews, and be part of the local (school?) educators review group. Any parent could become a reviewer for content and activities. He would provide his reviews, and be part of the local (school?) parents review group. All these local groups and reviewers would be able to also access the reviews made by others in other places and other countries where the XO's have been deployed. So my purpose for making this icon was not to be used as a "stamp of approval", but as a "stamp of being reviewed", and as general logo idea for local reviewing groups to adopt/adapt/use. Then again, I'm happy if it is used right now, in another fashion. It is my "gift" to the project :) HoboPrimate 09:55, 1 August 2007 (EDT)

icon needed

I notice (the spoon, etc.) that you seem to like doing icons. I'm fairly bad at making Inkscape cooperate. I need an icon for Tux Paint. There are existing icons of course, but they aren't the right size (grrr, SVG was supposed to fix that problem) and don't follow the Sugar look.

Thanks. The second one is more true to the original, as seen in my GNOME menu and on the Tux Paint web site. Normally the brush is on the right, in Tux's left hand. Does that work OK as a Sugar icon? If not, maybe just get rid of the brush. The right arm (on left) and mouth seem to be the distinctive features. AlbertCahalan 22:04, 12 August 2007 (EDT)
