After seeing this post on planet maemo, I wanted to replace my “applications” button with an n800 icon, but I couldn’t find one anywhere… I found a couple of icons in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon that where close to what I wanted (there’s a bluetooth icon, and input one) but they weren’t quite right, so this is what I managed to mash up.

I’m almost ashamed of how long it’s taken me to get round to writing this post, but stuff is a bit full on at the mo. A couple of weeks ago I cashed in a driving experience voucher my wife brought me for Christmas, yep not only does it take me two weeks to write a post, but it takes me 9 months to book a day out !

…or Gnome Matrix 3… this would be 2! It makes sense if you’re an art.gnome fan!

I don’t know what it is this month, but the wallpapers are flowing out of me!!

Look at this, dry for ages, and 2 posts in a day!

Actually this happened a couple of days ago, my laptop crashed, and this black & stripy screen is what I got, I thought it’d make a cool gnome art

My best friend is an accountant; he’s much cooler than me, very sociable and can pretty much drink anyone under the table !

We’ve been mates for years, hell, he was my best man, but I’ve always been the IT Geek out of the two of us. Well today the secret geek in him was revealed when I received this picture in an e-mail.

Awesome !

It’s been a while since I’ve done some art, so this eve’ I felt like a dabble, this is what I came up with…

missing_image_goes_here

I like gradients, blue and was aiming for something simple. A copy can be downloaded from gnome look here. I don’t suppose it’s good enough for art.gnome so I won’t bother

Frosy Grass is by far my most successful piece of gnome art; it’s got my best rating in art.gnome.org, and has a massive 3209 downloads (art.gnome = 2425 gnome look = 784).

Today, I just found something really cool, Frosty Grass is in a novel presentation video !!!!!!
Take a look at http://www.linuxedge.org/?q=node/58 it’s a demonstration of new rendering for gnome; fancy transparent windows, flipping desktops, all that cool stuff. As you’ll notice in the 1st few seconds of the video my art work is in the folder that gets moved,stretched and faded in the presentation !

Inspiration hit me last night, how about using the gnome foot - which is a ‘G’ - as the ‘g’ in blog or blogger.

So here we have it… Gnome Blogger

The back grounds are transparent so you can mess with the colours, I’ve done a light and a dark one depending on your taste !

It looks like gallery2 has buggered up the screen shots :(, so you can see some at art.gnome or gnome-look:

• Gnome Blogger white.
• Gnome Blogger black

Tango Beer
Backgrounds - GNOME

It’s under different name, but it’s nice to see the art.gnome people like my simple beer wallpaper

I thought it was time to clean up my desktop, you know had the usual mess of temporary files & shotcuts ! So to complement my cleaner desktop I thought I’d make a new gnome wallpaper.

My first draft was very plain, but then I remember this bottle top lid, I think it’s just the right touch.

Hope you like them

Is it just me being a “Sad-Dad” or is this really cute ?

I don’t know why but when she did is (in the gimp, I might add) I was really taken, maybe it’s because I see him ninja kicking

So I’m having a small issue posting, I’ve been in casualty due to my right eye not working properly. (More about this when I can see)

This picture has been on the camera for a week or two, but the recent additions to art.gnome have inspired me to crop this up to a nice shot.

Just a quick note to share the joy, My Sunset Pier picture has been accepted into the art.gnome gallery.
