…It’s just easy as creating a Tomboy folder inside Dropbox’s Shares and do a local synchronization!

GNOME Art Meeting: 10th October 20:00 UTC 10 October, 2008
I’m almost sure I will forget
However, for the guys like me that usually miss meetings today there’s our art meeting at 20:00 UTC [0] 
As always, channel #gnome-art on irc.gimp.org!
The Agenda so far is:
- Introduction, News
- Discussion of the Roadmap Draft by Hylke [1]
- Miscellaneous
If I won’t be online/in front of the PC, these are the three things I would like to see implemented as soon as possible:
- RGBA xsetting/environment variable (whatever gtk+ devs decides) to test also RGBA bugs inside applications. This could start in gtk+ 2.x and be complete for 3.0.
- Colorscheme support continuing the work of giusef (Giuseppe Fuggiano)
- Give the us the ability to theme the panel (with widget_register?)
Hope to see you!

More Murrine Mockups/Glazestyles 4 October, 2008
In the last few days I’ve rewritten the drawing code for the second time since the last stable release (0.53.1), now the code is much more modular and permits easy additions/tweaks in the widgets appearance.
Adding a glaze style like this requires less than 20 lines of code for ALL the widgets and both RGB and RGBA mode!
This means that mockups are really appreciated.
Of course please donate if you want to help me in the development, for more/faster features

Murrine Theming Contest? 2 October, 2008
To show all the possibilities given by the development versions of Murrine, and the new options it will support, I’ve thought about some kind of contest/brainstorm, where the best themes will be part of a separate package that will be out with the next release of Murrine.
The Goal
I’d like to see themes that uses all the new features, gradients shades, contrast, etc etc… to provide an original theme package, a not a simple colorscheme set
Themes should be submitted in the Murrine website, after registering. That will give access for optional voting and similar things.
Donations
Unfortunately this year will be really hard for me and I’ll have less spare time to code with the same free effort I had in the last years. So please consider donating, thinking that I’m a student and I can’t get money from my own due to the little spare time I have, that I’d like, if possible, to spend on free software: murrine, rgba stuff, gnome-do, clearlooks and much more
I really like to write a complete documentation for the development version of Murrine, as well as writing new cool themes for gnome-do!
Thanks for all your help!
