Why don't you try the new icons from BlazingBird, up above a couple of posts?

You just have to replace /opt/maemo/usr/share/yappari/icons/16x16/yappari.png /opt/maemo/usr/share/yappari/icons/48x48/yappari.png and /opt/maemo/usr/share/yappari/icons/64x64/yappari.png by the matching icons from the zip above.

I assure you these look a lot better than the previous ones I used.

Re: [Announce] Yappari - New maintainership and new features!
 
Yes. I think theyll look a lot better. Havent tried yet though. Waiting for the final release from Extras.

Well... any change to the UI will take some time to even start, since I'd rather give priority to known bugs.

My first intention, however, is to read hildon style guidelines and try to adhere better to them, implementing also the ability to start typing contact name to scroll down to that particular chat. That should speed up things a bit.

The two pane option, if implemented, will not be splitted by type of conversation, but just as a 2xN matrix so that twice the information is available at the same time.

Some of the minor changes will be implemented when possible :)

Again, thanks a lot for your efforts! :)

I'm sure he's talking about the white borders etc. because it's not transparent in the current version.

Ceene let me know if you need any other assistance in terms of Designing icons or UI of any Maemo apps.

I have already forwarded a Zip file containing the .png files on the previous page and possibly Ceene has implemented those changes in the 2.0.11 version which is currently in the extras-devel.

Version 2.0.11 is already being promoted, but new icons didn't make it.

However, 2.0.12 is out with just this fix. I'll be promoting it as soon as the web interface lets me.

Your icons look great, man. Thanks a lot :)

Thanks alot for giving me this opportunity. I have always tried to contribute to this wonderful community. I am surely waiting for 2.0.12 to install in my N900. And if its out then m installing it right now.

And what about using one, scalable icon? This should fix the problems wit the theme.

Well hope so. I think it should. Can we have some snapshots of the new icons?

BlazingBird 2015-05-10 17:18

Re: [Announce] Yappari - New maintainership and new features!
 
okay. 2.0.12 has been updated.. Going for the upgrade now..

BlazingBird 2015-05-10 17:24

Re: [Announce] Yappari - New maintainership and new features!
 
There seems to be a major problem with the Humanity theme. The new icon is blurry like the old one. Plus its showing those white outline (Not Transparent)..

Did you put one icon to the /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/... folder ? And nowhere else?

Besides, the old icon might stay due to some HD bug. Try rebooting.

BlazingBird 2015-05-10 17:29

Re: [Announce] Yappari - New maintainership and new features!
 
I didnt mess with the folders. Just upgraded from the application manager.

BlazingBird 2015-05-10 17:31

Re: [Announce] Yappari - New maintainership and new features!
 
And the menu icon is a bit stretchy !!! Its not like 1:1 although i had cropped it square.

n900hacker 2015-05-10 17:49

Re: [Announce] Yappari - New maintainership and new features!
 
I really don't like them and they don't fit with my theme

BlazingBird 2015-05-10 18:13

Re: [Announce] Yappari - New maintainership and new features!
 
Sorry to hear that but for time being we better go with this one. And when theres a next major release we might be able to improve it.

Just followed the steps bro and the icons work like a charm. But instead of scalable folder i put the icons in the :

/usr/share/icons//humanity_icons/apps/

In what repository is .0.12? can't seem to find it

BlazingBird 2015-05-10 19:43

Re: [Announce] Yappari - New maintainership and new features!
 
Its the same verison 2,0.11 just the icon fix is included.. See the changelog.

jellyroll 2015-05-10 19:44

Re: [Announce] Yappari - New maintainership and new features!
 
I did put my custom Yappari icons at the place where mine current used icon themes are stored.
The Yappari 2.0.11 version on my system is asking for a new registration after every restart.
Will there also be an GUI update like the examples of BlazingBird?

n900hacker 2015-05-10 20:01

Re: [Announce] Yappari - New maintainership and new features!
 
Sorry but mine wasn't a style critic, but i don't want that white square in the back

I hope so. Depends on the developers and as Ceene has already mentioned that he needs to go according to the maemo guidelines so hopefully we might see some Ui changes once its done in a proper manner. Actually if more people like the suggestions then itd be good to implement..

Just you have to replace the icons from the zip file mate. And theyr looking amazing even with the humanity and hires color themes.

ceene 2015-05-10 21:37

Re: [Announce] Yappari - New maintainership and new features!
 
All right, version 2.0.11 is already on extras-testing
Version 2.0.12 is also uploaded but it isn't yet available (this takes time, it's automatic and it's not under my control).

Changes for 2.0.11 are:
  • New icons (thanks to BlazingBird)
    Version 2.0.12 will fix the white background of the icons and make them to be transparent.
    Come on, people, it's not that hard to read the thread... I don't even know why I have to repeat this.

  • Better management of read and receipt reports (should show more up to date info on read status)
    With the upgrade to WA15 there are a couple things that aren't still ported to the new protocol, but this is the first change of a few that will help to report read/received messages as they should.

  • Some fixes that should avoid a couple segmentation faults and disconnections (coderus and me)
    Well, as the changelog line says itself, I hope this solves at least a couple of issues regarding frequent disconnections and maybe the segmentation faults.
    The latter are difficult to diagnose, so I'm doing some kind of defensive programming in the hopes that some more checks around the critical points solve that, but I can't be sure yet if this will work.

  • GUI option for max download size restored
    Someone notified me of this regression, so this option is back. It was due to a glitch in the UI code (wrong window sizes and the like).

I'm sorry I haven't fixed some standing issues, such as ghost contact and broadcast messages. To be honest, I don't have much time, so please be patient. I try to do as much as I can with the time I have.

Thanks to coderus as always, to the people that has helped me trace the segmentation faults and of course to BlazingBird for the new icons and ideas for the GUI. Given enough time, the GUI should improve, but it won't be fast.

And just to finish... I think I haven't ever made this request, but... if anyone is willing to code, I'd appreciate any kind of help you people can give. I see this project is very much wanted but I don't have the time nor the knowledge to do as much as you all want... so if anyone is bored and want to help I'd be really happy to have your cooperation :)

Best regards, I hope this release behaves better than the previous ones, but also that it is very short lived. All in all, 2.10.12 should be up tomorrow with the icon fixes. They are pretty cool as you can see from the snapshot BlazingBird took of its N900 :)

2.0.12 gives a size mismatch

BlazingBird 2015-05-11 07:22

Re: [Announce] Yappari - New maintainership and new features!
 
Using the new release since a day now and i find that the connection issue has been solved. I havent faced any issues or lose connections. The lag for scrolling in the main UI is also smooth than the orevious version. Overall its a success.. Well done Ceene and Coderus.

MONVMENTVM 2015-05-11 07:55

Re: [Announce] Yappari - New maintainership and new features!
 
yep... size mismatch. Is it safe to upgrade nonetheless?

Please, wait a couple hours. I uploaded a wrong version and immediately after the right one.

I guess I've broken something in the autobuilder. If it doesn't work later today, I'll reupload and re-promote. Sorry about the inconvenience.

It gives a size mismatch warning/error no matter how you try to install it.
