NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Why that stupid bar? I'd like to expand on it so you can minimize windows, etc. It just takes up more space, and copies mac's idea.

Done... some things to point out:

1. This is just a sketch. I am not being lazy, because I was told to do a sketch.
2. The ideas are silly. But because I like the current desktop format, I just thought I'd throw some ideas in.  wink
3. I'm happy with the current format.

Well, here it is:

Not too great. If you want me to do a more detailed one, I will.  smile

Expanding on Chrischb's idea, I have some of my own.

http://www.imagebeast.net/images/74e3fg … phl3hk.gif

Nice ideas! The only thing I don't like is that some of the bars don't stretch all the way across the screen... it doesn't "click".

Well, that's my opinion.  hmm

But yes, you have great ideas!  smile
....................................
08jackt, should the Graphics Team prepare some windows for you to see? I can get to it if you like it.  big_smile


What if we could make it so the user could choose what their desktop looks like from all these configurations?

EDIT: Oh no! I messed up on the quote tags!!!

Fixed now. *pant*

Re: Collab SOS{5}

What do you mean by 'click'?  Not flashy? Which one do you like the best?

Re: Collab SOS{5}

The minimised windows could appear as small icons. once the mw bar is filled, it expands.

Re: Collab SOS{5}

An idea I have: Having costumes for the buttons, for when they're not selected and selected, and possibly clicked.
Actually, in my projects now, I use all three. It looks nice and has a nice effect.  smile  The problem is that it might tire your eyes, having those flashes over and over...

Anyone like the idea, though?

It won't. And I just use the brightness effect to save time, with the same result.  tongue

08jackt, the things are taking up to much space.  hmm  How about a single bar on top with everything, and gadgets on the side, like one of my suggestions? I don't hate it, but it would be nice for more space.  smile

I like the ideas, so then the only thing I worry about is the look. The bars shouldn't be too space-consuming, because it's rather ugly... I'd also prefer the bars to stretch from top to bottom, or otherwise be thin.

But that's just my opinion.  smile

I like using costumes for some reason. Anyway, with costumes you can have more flexibility, because you control the look .

Anyway... does anyone like the idea of having special looks for buttons when they're not selected, selected, and possibly clicked?  hmm
