Can anybody think of a title?

Oh, if you want to try the first method again, make sure you're doing it from within the dw-free checked out directory. But otherwise, the second method does the same thing, just with more clicks.

Re: Problem #2

[ninetydegrees]

Oh that worked then. ;)

What do I do with the .patch file?

Re: Problem #2

[afuna]

Okay, since that's a new theme, you need to do the following:

1.) file a new styles bug. I use this template.

Note in the summary/title that it's a theme for Funky Circles -- Theme: Atomic Orange (Funky Circles) works --

In the description, include a link to your entry on dreamscapes.

2.) then go to http://bugs.dwscoalition.org/show_bug.cgi?id=680, and leave a note with a link to your bug (so it's easy to find)

I actually did the patch for the CSS fixes for the Reply page (http://bugs.dwscoalition.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1884) so could you explain the process for this one too, please?

I'll do the themes right after. Can I do all my themes at the same time or is it better do theme one by one (but then do you have to wait till the first one is committed/live)?

Also, I suppose I have to create a Bugzilla account. Yes?

Re: Problem #2

Okay, and this step applies to the themes too:

1.) Go to http://bugs.dwscoalition.org/createaccount.cgi (there's a link from the front page, in case you ever need to find it again) and create your zilla account

2.) go to bug 1884, assign it to yourself, needs two things:
a. put your email address in the assignee
b. set the status to assigned

(I usually just use this script: http://afunamatata.com/greasemonkey/dreamwidth_bug_grabber.user.js)

3.) Upload your patch.

There will be a link "Upload a new attachment" under the table which would contain attachments(if there had been previous in that bug)

So upload your patch there, and then check the "patch" checkbox, set the commit and review dropdowns to "?"

(I just use this: http://afunamatata.com/greasemonkey/dreamwidth_patch_upload_.user.js)

And hmm. I think that's it! Then someone will come and review/commit it. (You'll receive three emails when that happens, so umm. be prepared, heh. I think it's possible to filter them out, but I haven't done that myself.)

Re: Problem #2

[ninetydegrees]

Ok I think I did everything correctly. Thanks a lot for your very clear explanations!

Oh, can you answer my question about themes (all at the same time or one by one?)?

Re: Problem #2

[afuna]

Hmmm. I think all at the same time is good, but one bug for each layout, in case you end up submitting for multiple layouts in the future.

Re: Problem #2

[ninetydegrees]

I've just realized I don't know how to upload the images. Do I have to rename and zip them like you did in http://bugs.dwscoalition.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1769?

Re: Problem #2

[afuna]

Yeah, that's a good idea. (Whoever is testing can do it, but it's easier this way, heh)

Re: Problem #2

Ok one more question: I noticed that the extensions of the image files are .jpg in the theme layer whereas the images are actually .png files. I know that's probably because Tiny Pic appends the .jpg extension to their URLs no matter what the original format is but I'm not sure what I should save them as. On my computers they're .png files and have the .png extension, not .jpg or .jpg.png (which is what you get is you save them from the layout).

Edit: I went ahead and left them as .png files.

Re: Problem #2

[afuna]

Belatedly, but just confirming that yup, .png is the way to go.
