blackdavinci Posted September 22, 2007 Posted September 22, 2007 Well since im a designer and really like this software and really want to give something back besides money I was thinking if you perhaps would like a redesign of the site and if wanted the logo aswell giving the site and program a more serious look what say you I wont need any ftp or w/e i'll Upload the stuff to a temp site so you could see how it works and so on regards black
Martin H Posted September 22, 2007 Posted September 22, 2007 Personally, then i really think that ImgBurn's design is very, very well made Just my 2 cents
cornholio7 Posted September 22, 2007 Posted September 22, 2007 i think blackdavinci is referring to the website and not the programme martin h davs
Martin H Posted September 22, 2007 Posted September 22, 2007 Yeah, i must be some kind of moron for not getting that the first time around, but thank's for the correction, mate
blackdavinci Posted September 22, 2007 Author Posted September 22, 2007 yapp that was what i was refering to, i thought i was clear on that poin =P but obviously not ^^ so what say you... site owners?
Wandering Freeloader Posted September 23, 2007 Posted September 23, 2007 (edited) Well though I don't specifically find the ui of ImgBurn difficult to understand. I came to notice that people that doens't even know what style in word is couldn't apprehend ImgBurn that easily. An pretty simple idea would be to have at the launch of ImgBurn a panel with huge icons proposing what ImgBurn can do. I made a simple mockup of what i'm talking about. (Icons borrowed from the great work done at gnome: http://art.gnome.org/themes/icon/1100 ) Edited September 24, 2007 by Wandering Freeloader
blackdavinci Posted September 23, 2007 Author Posted September 23, 2007 here's how i think the site should look remeber its not done
blutach Posted September 24, 2007 Posted September 24, 2007 I like the "box" And Wandering Freeloader, that's an interesting idea. Regards
ol'lo Posted September 24, 2007 Posted September 24, 2007 yep, my vote goes to blackdavinci...thats a more attractive design for the site
blackdavinci Posted September 24, 2007 Author Posted September 24, 2007 thx alot guys.... does the admin ever check the forums?
blutach Posted September 24, 2007 Posted September 24, 2007 LOL - never - he only has about 6,500 posts Regards
LOCOENG Posted September 24, 2007 Posted September 24, 2007 A splash screen is an interesting idea and vbulletin has different themes that are easily downloaded and applied as skins...although a personal touch would be nice.
Altercuno Posted September 24, 2007 Posted September 24, 2007 The icons make it look like a Nero knock off. How about something more traditional? Pretty sure the boss still wont go for it but it will give us something to look at...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted September 24, 2007 Posted September 24, 2007 I'm not sure a website redesign is really urgent at this time. I don't look at the current one and go 'Oh my god I hate it', so IMO it's not due yet. If you fancy showing me more of the new layout (as you see it) please do so. I can't tell much from the header. I like the idea of the newbie friendly welcome screen and have toyed with the idea in the past. I'm working on it right now.
blackdavinci Posted September 24, 2007 Author Posted September 24, 2007 well since i dont know how the NEW logo should look like i decided to put nothing on there thought we perhaps could have some competion for it and then once we've got a really nice logo i would put it on the header and make some other web 2.0 effects to it and so on making the site alot nicer =)
LIGHTNING UK! Posted September 24, 2007 Posted September 24, 2007 I wasn't really talking about the logo, I was more interested to see what you think the bit below the blue bars should look like.
blackdavinci Posted September 24, 2007 Author Posted September 24, 2007 oh in that case oki give me sometime and ill make a mockup =)
Martin H Posted September 24, 2007 Posted September 24, 2007 (edited) I like the idea of the newbie friendly welcome screen and have toyed with the idea in the past. I'm working on it right now. Could you please then also make an option for disabling it, as i personally hate it to death(and i'm sure many others do to)... If you know how to use your brain the slightest little bit, then you will find ImgBurn's current UI very user-friendly, and dumbing the UI down, just for the occasional imbecil is a pretty sad move IMHO. Of course i respect your decision no matter what you decide, as it's your app and hard work i'm talking about Edit: Hmm, wait a minutte... What am i blabbing on about here! Of course you will make it configurable, just like nearly everything else is, in your brilliant app Sorry for even asking about it, then @blackdavinci Please don't take it personally, when i said that i didn't liked your propossed wizzard, since it hasn't anything to do with your designing skills whatsoever, which i personally find very good btw, but is entirely based on the fact that i personally hate wizzards in general, and no matter if they are well designed or not... CU, Martin. Edited September 24, 2007 by Martin H
