##master-page:HomepageTemplate #format wiki #language en #title Vish ||<>|| I've been using Ubuntu as the primary OS since around June 2008. Before that , I had tried it but a few hardware problems prevented me from fully switching to Ubuntu. Ubuntu is my first Linux experience, and have been sticking with it without second thoughts. == Contact information == ||{{https://launchpad.net/@@/person}}''' Name''': || Vishnoo || ||{{https://launchpadlibrarian.net/17957513/gem-sm.png}}''' Launchpad:''': || [[https://launchpad.net/~vish|vish]] || ||{{https://launchpad.net/@@/language}} ''' IRC''': || {{{vish}}} on Freenode || Was earlier active in the ubuntu-forums but recent activity is more in launchpad and freenode irc == Activities == ||{{https://edge.launchpad.net/@@/team}}''' Team Participation''' || ||{{https://launchpadlibrarian.net/1013640/ubuntu_emblem.png}} [[https://launchpad.net/~ubuntumembers | Ubuntu Member]]|| ||{{https://launchpadlibrarian.net/38612593/start-here.png}} [[https://launchpad.net/~elementaryart | Humanity-icon Team , aka elementary art team]]|| ||{{https://launchpadlibrarian.net/27432847/emblem-favorite.png }} [[https://launchpad.net/~papercutters | Papercutters team]]|| ||{{https://edge.launchpad.net/@@/team}} [[https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-art-pkg | Ubuntu Artwork packagers]]|| ||{{https://launchpadlibrarian.net/4423778/qa-icon.png }} [[https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-bugcontrol | Bug Control]]|| ||{{https://launchpadlibrarian.net/41706040/3.png}} [[https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-reviewers | Ubuntu Review Team]]|| ||{{https://edge.launchpad.net/@@/team}} [[https://launchpad.net/~bugsquad-mentorship | Bugsquad-mentorship Team]]|| ||{{https://launchpadlibrarian.net/7129377/icon-14.png}} [[https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-art | Ubuntu Artwork Team]]|| ||{{https://launchpadlibrarian.net/17279186/14.png}} [[https://launchpad.net/~breathe-dev | Breathe-icon-team ]]|| ||{{https://launchpadlibrarian.net/41571433/ump_logo_014px.png}} [[https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-manual | Ubuntu Manual team ]]|| ||Click [[ https://launchpad.net/~vish/+participation|here]] to see a complete list of teams that I currently am a member of. || * Icon artwork: * [[https://code.launchpad.net/~elementaryart/humanity/Humanity|Humanity-icons]] * [[http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-art-pkg/notify-osd/notify-osd-icons-ubuntu/annotate/head%3A/AUTHORS|Notify-osd icons]] * Icons in [[http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/lucid/software-center/lucid/annotate/head%3A/AUTHORS|Software-center]] * [[http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~breathe-dev/breathe-icon-set/trunk/annotate/head%3A/AUTHORS|Breathe-icon-set]] * [[http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-art-pkg/+junk/ubuntu-mono/annotate/head:/debian/copyright|Ubuntu-mono icons]] * Created the [[http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~lernid-devs/lernid/trunk/annotate/head%3A/lernid/lernidconfig.py|Lernid icon]] * [[http://git.gnome.org/browse/empathy/tree/CONTRIBUTORS|Icons for Empathy]] * Logo for [[https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-reviewers|Review team]] * Updated [[http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~kirkland/testdrive/trunk/revision/192|TestDrive Icon]] * [[http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23108|Poppler annotations]] * [[http://git.gnome.org/browse/banshee/commit/?id=c7fa5706d47dd961b468f0eb856bb60de293cbee|Icons]] for [[http://git.gnome.org/browse/banshee/commit/?id=73ae5179cb098ac25a242770dfae406980baf15d|Banshee]] . * Created the alpha Title page for Ubuntu-Manual team.

[Already spoke about this to kwwii and wheels are in motion ] * Create a new interesting theme and try to get it included in the ubuntu-community themes. [have a rough plan in my head , and it is partially in progress * Become an Ubuntu Member. -DONE == Testimonials == Vish has been an outstanding contributor to the artwork and papercuts team. He's very active and does great work. Offering Ubuntu membership to Vish is a no-brainer :) [[LaunchpadHome:kwwii]] "No-brainer" is exactly the phrase that came to mind when discussing Vish's Ubuntu membership. Not only should Vish be made an Ubuntu member, we should clone him 100 times and make the clones members too! Contributors of Vish's caliber are extremely rare; he's an extremely talented artist, has great user experience understanding, and has a great curiosity for technical details as well, all of which make him completely well-rounded. [[LaunchpadHome:djsiegel]] Vish has been tireless in handling Papercuts and other design-related bug reports. He’s a quick learner and often provides useful design suggestions. — [[LaunchpadHome:mpt]] Vish is very active in the Bug Squad. Not only does he triage loads and loads of bugs, he also is there in IRC to provide help to new triagers,and is of great help in discussions. The fact that he has somehow found the time next to all this to contribute so much to Artwork is astonishing. - [[LaunchpadHome:qense]] ---- CategoryHomepage
