VSIDO ASCII

Digit

we like screenfetch.  it's nice.
it could be nicer, with a vsido logo, rather than a debian one...

with that in mind, dizzie and me were having a little poke around.

here's a reasonably well refined version (compared to both our earlier attempts)...

          ..';:cccccccccccc:;'.

      .':ccc:'..         ..,:ccc,.

                   .',:ccc;.              

feel free to echo that into a terminal to see.   heh, i'm too lazy to scrot it for you just yet.
(i'll come back n make this thread's original post nice later.)

oh, and that was made using jp2a.sudo apt-get install jp2a && man jp2a

to be specific, i used this command (on a pic i had just made specificly intended to work cleanly in ascii):jp2a --colors --size=42x26 ~/images/vsido/vsidoforascii-mk2.jpg (and of course just added a " > filename" to get it saved nice n neat for later, in a form which is more easy to get.

now we just need to get that added to screenfetch's code.  ;)
... er, or refined a bit more before we do.  ;)

Thats AWESOME! I have always wanted to get my hands into making different ascii logos on screenfetch and I think the vsido logo would be a great place to start! Good job dizzie and digit!

valroadie

Well since this is the artwork section of vsido forums, this would be a viable place to ask.

I have been in touch with the screenfetch dev discussing how to implement new distros into the code (as I am not proficient enough with it).

He has agreed to put in the ascii and all the info for VSIDO once we get a design down :)

So if anyone has a design already made in ascii or want to contribute on making one then go ahead and post some stuff! This is our chance to further customize a great distro :D

dizzie

screenfetch is a simple executeable script, and we have already edited it, someone has it, cant remember who :)


Nice going though :) I think Digit and VastOne have the ansi somewhere :)

Oh for sure! I am not surprised that it has been edited, though I think adding it to the repo for future people to use is a good thing!

I mean if VSIDO takes off, it would be awesome to just have an install of screenfetch 'just work' with the proper ascii eh? :)

dizzie

When that happens, it will be added in the 'vsido-welcome' script.


There is reasons (yet) for why we aren't on (and probably never will) distrowatch, etc :)

I see! I can understand the distrowatch bit as I think it would be OVERWHELMING for VastOne if a hundred people just showed up and started complaining haha (I don't think they would though).

VastOne

I have done all the changes to the current screenfetch for VSIDO and it is set except for the ascii... If I can get the code that digit and dizzie did without carriage returns then I can easily add it

I also did all the editing to archey and can do the same for that

Neat! Well then I am not sure of you would want me to give it to him then as we have our own xD

Just let me know!

VastOne

If we ever get it settled, I will give it to both the archey devs and screenfetch devs...

Thanks Roadie!
