tantek aaronpk - how do we share the IndieWebCamp logo with others?
#
aaronpk I don't think that has come up before
#
tantek so people can put buttons on their blog etc.
#
tantek I can't even load indiewebcamp_logo_color_155.png from the site
#
tantek the wiki software takes over and serves me a "there no such page"
#
aaronpk where is that referenced?
#
aaronpk there is an opengraph tag pointing to http://indiewebcamp.com/wiki/skins/indieweb/images/indiewebcamp_logo_color.png
#
tantek oh ok - it's referenced from the style sheet
#
tantek gumax something or other
#
tantek it's the logo that's shown on the site home page
#
aaronpk oh crazy
#
tantek (I used Firefox inspect element to view the background image url etc.)
#
tantek I figured you put it there
#
aaronpk oh, well the full link is http://indiewebcamp.com/wiki/skins/indieweb/styles/gumax_cyborg/indiewebcamp_logo_color_155.png
#
tantek btw for comparison: http://microformats.org/wiki/buttons
#
aaronpk but I don't see a broken link to indiewebcamp_logo_color_155.png
#
tantek why the dark charcoal background on those images?
#
aaronpk they are transparent pngs
#
tantek aha - so FF is doing that. vs. Safari puts a white background
#
tantek weird
#
tantek also for comparison: http://microformats.org/wiki/spread-microformats
#
aaronpk those are great pages

#
tantek aaronpk - how come the images don't display inline on this page? http://indiewebcamp.com/buttons
#
tantek that works on the microformats wiki for example - just putting in a URL to an image (png, gif, jpg) embeds it on the page instead of auto-linking the URL.
#
tantek is this a MediaWiki setting?
#
aaronpk it's not enabled by default in mediawiki
#
aaronpk i just uploaded images to the site, one sec

#
aaronpk we should also have some sort of "I'm creating the Indie Web" button/banner, independent of the indiewebcamp event!

@t 5 weeks til @OSBridge and @IndieWebCamp! Get your flights + hotel. Note: @VirginAmerica flies to PDX starting in June. (ttk.me t4J24)
#
tantek aaronpk - why re-upload images to the site? ;)
jancborchardt joined the channel
#
tantek and can we enable that MediaWiki setting? (it's more distributed web-like after all, rather than requiring uploads to a particular silo ;) )
#
tantek and agree on a "I'm creating the Indie Web" button - we need that
#
aaronpk gotta run, back later

#
tantek aaronpk - did you make the "I'm attending" buttons?
#
tantek shouldn't the be "I'm creating …" ? ;)
#
tantek *they be
#
tantek or rather, perhaps let's keep the "I'm attending … " buttons for apprentices

@indiewebcamp #IndieWebCamp joins the Mozilla Webmaker Summer of Code
#
aaronpk neat, what exactly does this mean?
singpolyma joined the channel
#
tantek aaronpk, it means indiewebcamp is one of many events that help advance web literacy
#
tantek and so gets listed along with other webmaker events
#
tantek Indiewebcamp is a pretty advanced webmaker event, and I see much potential for recruiting promising webmakers to indiewebcamp.
#
aaronpk great!
