@luzpaz Do you maybe have some nice ones of FreeCAD master?

luzpaz commented 2 years ago

We should ask ppemawm 1, 2
or un1corn 1, 2

luzpaz commented 2 years ago

They've been pinged on the forum

ppd commented 2 years ago

Thanks a lot. If you have your snapcraft account ready, I can add you as a contributor. Then you could even add them yourself if you wanted.

luzpaz commented 2 years ago

Having issue with my login. I can't seem to find it and forgot what email I associated with it :disappointed:

Good news. ppemawm gave us permissijng to use his screenshots:

ppd commented 2 years ago

Thanks a lot for all you're contributing. His screenshots look like Windows frames. Maybe we should load his assemblies in the snap version and take a few screenshots ourselves?

luzpaz commented 2 years ago

Are the files available? If not I can DM him

ppd commented 2 years ago

Hm. I didn't see any, unfortunately.

luzpaz commented 2 years ago

I've DM'd him. Lets see what he says. If not then we just crop the images?

ppd commented 2 years ago

Yeah, also a good idea.

another candidate: https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=60050 but be careful not to pick the realthunder branch screenshots

@luzpaz

Having issue with my login. I can't seem to find it and forgot what email I associated with it disappointed

Did you get that resolved? Have you looked for a "Ubuntu One" mail in your inbox?

luzpaz commented 2 years ago

I need to dig through which email account I associated it with. I made an account back in the day to report bugs. I've don't prefer Ubuntu. Always preferred rolling releases

ppd commented 2 years ago

@luzpaz Is this maybe your account: https://launchpad.net/~kunda ?

luzpaz commented 2 years ago

Yea..OK...now we're in business. my snapcraft account user is kunda1

ppd commented 2 years ago

@luzpaz I invited you by email via the launchpad address. Doing so by account name is not supported.

luzpaz commented 2 years ago

@ppd sorry, can you resend invitation. I had to change email address
Also I may have deleted it since I'm getting flooded with emails from github as chennes is migrating from mantis bugtracker to github issue queue.

ppd commented 2 years ago

@luzpaz Sent again to kunda at scribus net

luzpaz commented 2 years ago

that email is dead...where did you see that?

ppd commented 2 years ago

On that launchpad account. I assumed you had confirmed it when I mentioned the account. You can also send me an address via the forum if you want.

ppd commented 2 years ago

@luzpaz I'm a bit swamped atm. I'd be grateful if you could add a few screenshots if you have the time sometime soon.

luzpaz commented 2 years ago

sorry about the delay. Apparently I'm running in to ratio size issues.

ppd commented 2 years ago

The ppemawm screenshots are very low resolution. It'd be better to load some model and take the screenshots ourselves.

ppd commented 2 years ago

@luzpaz Any news here?

luzpaz commented 2 years ago

Sorry, being too pedantic about dimensions and graphic quality + waiting to hear back from users has given me 'option paralysis'. There are a ton of options from https://twitter.com/i/events/1481596603215400964

The ppemawm models look fantastic. We'd need to load them in the snap to get the "Linux look" though.
