server errors in gallery
by brynn
Hi Friends, Martin,
I'm getting server errors when I try to open resources in the gallery
that I've never opened before. If I've opened them before, they open as normal.
I want to keep testing and try to gather info for you, but the error
message says that it's generating an email. So I don't want to flood you.
But let me know if I can help.
All best,
brynn

vetting tutorials for the website
by brynn
Hi Friends,
I've updated the bug report about this:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape-web/+bug/1603669
Here's a first draft of the guidelines. I'm sure it can be more
concise, if necessary. But I'm still not sure where would be the best place to
put it. The black space on the gallery page? A separate page, with a link on
the upload form? Comments and/or edits welcome!
https://inkscapecommunity.com/jd/vet-tut.odt (it's a text file)
You'll notice the first guideline is really a question whether the
guidelines should include instructions for uploading. I guess once Martin
finishes the new functionality for uploading a link, it won't be necessary. But
if we put this into action on the website before that, people will probably need
instructions. Well, at least I will. I tried to do it the other day, but
couldn't figure it out.
Another thing I'm not sure about. When Martin said there would be 2 big
categories, vetted and not vetted, I wasn't clear if that is going to be 2
different galley pages? Or would it be filters (like the Inkscape version,
platform, and extension type, on the Extension page
https://inkscape.org/en/gallery/=extension/?order=-edited)
Thanks,
brynn

I'm so confused! We were talking about editing the Video Tutorials page. But
now we are putting them in the gallery?

Hi Vardenis,
I think I understand what you mean. You're thinking it would be
better
not to mix up video and text tutorials, in the gallery? Well, they already
are
mixed up in the gallery (https://inkscape.org/en/gallery/=tutorial/).
However,
you can choose to look at only text or only videos. See on the right column,
where it says "textual" and "video", black buttons with white text?
Although I'm not sure if that works, if the author did not put such a
tag when they uploaded?? Yeah, if you click on video, it's blank, as if there
were no videos. Is it possible to manually add those tags, to the video
tutorials?
- Yes, they can be tagged just like any other item in the gallery. The
tags on the right are the 'official' ones, just like it works for the
extensions.
(I'm addressing this reply to the list, since I have this question.)
But Martin is talking about something else, I think. He's asking to
have the videos embedded on the Video Tutorials page.
- He was rather asking to post a link as a resource. The embedding will
work automatically.
I haven't ever done that
before, or seen it. So I'm not sure what it will look like.
I'll try an example, using one of the heathenex vids, because I know
they have a free license. Then we can both see what it's going to look like.
I'll do it in just a few minutes.
But I still wonder about taking just any YT video and embedding it.
Are
all YT videos automatically public domain?
- Nope, most are 'Standard Youtube Licence'.
Regards,
Maren

brynn

I'm thinking maybe better just add link's to article (Video Tutorials) and
don't
upload all this videos as resources in gallery, tutorials section (current
video
tutorials only link's), because in gallery, tutorials is more text based than
videos, and I think if I would start uploading videos to tutorials category
(https://inkscape.org/en/gallery/=tutorial/), it would become a bit of a mess
and "Video Tutorials" category in websites loss of sense. What do you thinks?
Sorry for my bad English language, Thanks.
03.01.2017, 21:45, "brynn" <brynn@...78...>:
First I should say that I'm not a frequent YT user or video watcher. Is there
no copyright issue, to just grab a video and upload it?

Don't forget to upload each of the videos into the website, if you add
the youtube video as the URL link it will embed the video and you can
add text and other important information like the license (if there is
one).
This way videos can be collected onto these tutorial pages using the
gallery widgets.

No, no (I don't have permissions and maybe someone don't agree with
me). I'm not
editing, I'm only discuss for now about "Video Tutorials" section,
and I'm
thinking Nick Saporito, Chris Hildenbrand, Sids Art tutorials can be
more
helpful than now tutorials in Video Tutorial section.
I can try (In text editor) create page with format familiar to the
current with
new video tutorials from above authors and share here. :-)
02.01.2017, 21:26, "brynn" <brynn@...78...>:
Hi Vardenis,
Yes, Nick Saporito has very quickly compiled a huge amount of
Inkscape
tutorials! I think that now, they aren't quite as good as when he
first
started. Goes a little too fast now. And it drives me crazy that he
ALWAYS
calls the Selection tool, "the arrow tool". Even after I mentioned
it, he still
keeps saying it. But still, they are a free resource, and I think
they are
helpful for a LOT of Inkscape users.
Chris Hildenbrand's tutorials are mostly text tutorials. I
think only a
few are videos. Unless recently he's started using videos? But yes,
very good!
I haven't heard of Sids Art. I'll follow your link and check
it out.
Yes, those would certainly help to make the Video Tutorials
page more
current. I didn't understand you though. Did you mean to say that you
are
going to edit that page? If you want to help with the Inkscape
project, and
edit that page, we can give you permissions to edit the website.
All best,
brynn

Hello, Brynn,
Thanks for you website, it is amazing! And really try to help with
your website
and outdated tutorials, I'm now trying with Video Tutorials section
in website,
Thanks for you help. ;-)
I'm thinking in "Video Tutorials" section tutorials from Nick
Saporito
(https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEQXp_fcqwPcqrzNtWJ1w9w/playlists),
he have
playlist Inkscape explained(for very beginners), Inkscape Beginner
Tutorials,
Inkscape Intermediate/Advanced Tutorials, Inkscape Typeface
Tutorials, Inkscape
Logo tutorials, he explains from very beginning to advanced topics in
Inkscape,
too Chris Hildenbrand have awesome tutorials(
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVMhFCCmrMisICIoyTIXsKw/playlists )
for game
art, Inkscape basics of game art creation, Inkscape seamless
patterns, too in
channel is tutorials about how to animate. Too Sids Art - Inkscape
And Drawing
have interesting tutorials
(https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLI43BLYCGCqrnxqHwDRTni9K3V-Y
bkhs).
I'm thinking this videos make Video Tutorials section more modern and
more
interest.
What do you thinks about that?
Sorry for my bad English language, Thanks. :-)
02.01.2017, 20:41, "brynn" <brynn@...78...>:
I have an interest in tutorials of all kinds, and keep a list of what
I consider
the best or most helpful tutorials (meaning that they don't contain
any errors
or outdated steps) on my website: https://forum.inkscapecommunity.com
/index.php
It's probably about 6 months out of date, right now. But I'll make it
current
pretty soon.
I have a plan to bring them all over to the website, eventually, but
can't start
on it until I finish with other projects first. But I'd be glad to
help you, if
you wanted or needed it.
One thing which could probably be done right away, is to put a link
on that
page, to this page https://inkscape.org/en/gallery/=tutorial/. They
aren't all
video tutorials, but those that are, are certainly more current.
Maybe I'll add a note on that page, with the link, and also asking
for
volunteers. (I wonder if Victor would be interested, too? I know he's
looking
to help out.)

In YouTube and Vimeo there are many who create Inkscape video
tutorials.
I believe the job of Video Tutorial curator is available if you'd
like
to have a go.
The first thing to do is to think about what's out there, maybe make
a
list of all the really great stuff, then think about how you'd put it

Sound like fun?

Re: [Inkscape-docs] [Inkscape-translator] Website / Wiki: Release translations
by Maren Hachmann
Hi everyone (including docs list website editors),
okay, so the release is out :)
What's problematic currently because of all the people visiting the
website is the website performance. I've found that editing doesn't work
for me, and publishing trials end up in server nirvana.
I'll wait with making any further changes until it's calmer, maybe at
night, when website traffic is low (I've gotten a couple of new shield
images from Jabier). Or, if that doesn't suffice, then maybe a couple of
days later.
Next time, we should probably ask for a couple of additional days, so we
have some time to prepare the website properly before the visitors DDOS
the site ;-)
Kind Regards,
Maren

Re: [Inkscape-docs] Update "Video Tutorials" section in website
by Maren Hachmann
Vardenis, can you please reply to the list? Depending on your email
program, there are different ways to accomplish that, e.g. 'reply to
all' is available for me, but you may need to paste the list into the
address line yourself.
Embedding should be okay, though - but you can ask Nick and heathenx and
whoever you would like to include if they agree first. Or even invite
them to upload them themselves, so they're linked to their own user
account at inkscape.org, and can serve as some kind of 'entry point' for
publicity for them. It might be that they're not too happy, if we put
all their videos on the website, because it could be they generate
income via their youtube pages... Asking is always nicer, in any case.
Regards,
Maren

Re: [Inkscape-docs] Update "Video Tutorials" section in website
by brynn
Hi Vardenis,
I think I understand what you mean. You're thinking it would be better
not to mix up video and text tutorials, in the gallery? Well, they already are
mixed up in the gallery (https://inkscape.org/en/gallery/=tutorial/). However,
you can choose to look at only text or only videos. See on the right column,
where it says "textual" and "video", black buttons with white text?
Although I'm not sure if that works, if the author did not put such a
tag when they uploaded?? Yeah, if you click on video, it's blank, as if there
were no videos. Is it possible to manually add those tags, to the video
tutorials? (I'm addressing this reply to the list, since I have this question.)
But Martin is talking about something else, I think. He's asking to
have the videos embedded on the Video Tutorials page. I haven't ever done that
before, or seen it. So I'm not sure what it will look like.
I'll try an example, using one of the heathenex vids, because I know
they have a free license. Then we can both see what it's going to look like.
I'll do it in just a few minutes.
But I still wonder about taking just any YT video and embedding it. Are
all YT videos automatically public domain?
Thanks,
brynn

I'm thinking maybe better just add link's to article (Video Tutorials) and don't
upload all this videos as resources in gallery, tutorials section (current video
tutorials only link's), because in gallery, tutorials is more text based than
videos, and I think if I would start uploading videos to tutorials category
(https://inkscape.org/en/gallery/=tutorial/), it would become a bit of a mess
and "Video Tutorials" category in websites loss of sense. What do you thinks?
Sorry for my bad English language, Thanks.
03.01.2017, 21:45, "brynn" <brynn@...78...>:
First I should say that I'm not a frequent YT user or video watcher. Is there
no copyright issue, to just grab a video and upload it?
Thanks,
brynn

Don't forget to upload each of the videos into the website, if you add
the youtube video as the URL link it will embed the video and you can
add text and other important information like the license (if there is
one).
This way videos can be collected onto these tutorial pages using the
gallery widgets.

No, no (I don't have permissions and maybe someone don't agree with
me). I'm not
editing, I'm only discuss for now about "Video Tutorials" section,
and I'm
thinking Nick Saporito, Chris Hildenbrand, Sids Art tutorials can be
more
helpful than now tutorials in Video Tutorial section.
I can try (In text editor) create page with format familiar to the
current with
new video tutorials from above authors and share here. :-)

Hi Vardenis,
Yes, Nick Saporito has very quickly compiled a huge amount of
Inkscape
tutorials! I think that now, they aren't quite as good as when he
first
started. Goes a little too fast now. And it drives me crazy that he
ALWAYS
calls the Selection tool, "the arrow tool". Even after I mentioned
it, he still
keeps saying it. But still, they are a free resource, and I think
they are
helpful for a LOT of Inkscape users.
Chris Hildenbrand's tutorials are mostly text tutorials. I
think only a
few are videos. Unless recently he's started using videos? But yes,
very good!
I haven't heard of Sids Art. I'll follow your link and check
it out.
Yes, those would certainly help to make the Video Tutorials
page more
current. I didn't understand you though. Did you mean to say that you
are
going to edit that page? If you want to help with the Inkscape
project, and
edit that page, we can give you permissions to edit the website.
All best,

Hello, Brynn,
Thanks for you website, it is amazing! And really try to help with
your website
and outdated tutorials, I'm now trying with Video Tutorials section
in website,
Thanks for you help. ;-)
I'm thinking in "Video Tutorials" section tutorials from Nick
Saporito
(https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEQXp_fcqwPcqrzNtWJ1w9w/playlists),
he have
playlist Inkscape explained(for very beginners), Inkscape Beginner
Tutorials,
Inkscape Intermediate/Advanced Tutorials, Inkscape Typeface
Tutorials, Inkscape
Logo tutorials, he explains from very beginning to advanced topics in
Inkscape,
too Chris Hildenbrand have awesome tutorials(
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVMhFCCmrMisICIoyTIXsKw/playlists )
for game
art, Inkscape basics of game art creation, Inkscape seamless
patterns, too in
channel is tutorials about how to animate. Too Sids Art - Inkscape
And Drawing
have interesting tutorials
(https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLI43BLYCGCqrnxqHwDRTni9K3V-Y
bkhs).
I'm thinking this videos make Video Tutorials section more modern and
more
interest.
What do you thinks about that?
Sorry for my bad English language, Thanks. :-)
02.01.2017, 20:41, "brynn" <brynn@...78...>:
I have an interest in tutorials of all kinds, and keep a list of what
I consider
the best or most helpful tutorials (meaning that they don't contain
any errors
or outdated steps) on my website: https://forum.inkscapecommunity.com
/index.php
It's probably about 6 months out of date, right now. But I'll make it
current
pretty soon.
I have a plan to bring them all over to the website, eventually, but
can't start
on it until I finish with other projects first. But I'd be glad to
help you, if
you wanted or needed it.
One thing which could probably be done right away, is to put a link
on that
page, to this page https://inkscape.org/en/gallery/=tutorial/. They
aren't all
video tutorials, but those that are, are certainly more current.
Maybe I'll add a note on that page, with the link, and also asking
for
volunteers. (I wonder if Victor would be interested, too? I know he's
looking
to help out.)
All best,
brynn
