GRANULAR 2.0 design underway

Finally, I have assimilated and working within a KDE4 environment, and I have to say, I kinda like it. There are a few things I am frustrated are missing but, beyond those things, KDE4 is a nice, fresh place to be, and it is reviving my passion for graphic design.
It will take me a bit to become familiar with the new scripts but, that is the part that makes it all so interesting.
I am working with a "test" release for development of GRANULAR 2.0, which sports KDE 4.3 which Anurag put together for the team to work with.
This iso is basically, the Unity Linux core, with task-kde4-minimal installed and openbox stripped out, and the Granular/Wolverine repo ready to go.
So far, kde4 is providing me with a lot of fun in getting to know the differences from kde 3.5.10 (which I am still partial too) But I am sure, in time, as I am able to customize this install more and more, I will come to love kde4 just as much as kde3

Been a while...

It has been a while since I last posted on this blog. I have been pre-occupied with life-matters, which have taken a lot of time from things I like to do. So, I took some time during it all, to try and find myself a positive attitude and the motivation which continuously gets sucked out from me by these matters at hand.
I am feeling better now, and making a move to get the logo project for Unity rolling again. This time learning from past mistakes, and getting a nice, clean, finalized image, in a timely manner.
I am working on getting everyone to vote from the 3 ideas which were chosen, to pick one of the 3, polish it up, and get this task finalized.
In the past, we wound up drowning in our own deep thoughts and politics, and the machine came to a full stop. But there is still time to get this done, and the machine is not completely broken (just some missing parts)
