TM 2.0 collab sub-thread: ideas
All members of the TechMaster OS 2.0 collab should post here if they have an idea for TechMaster 2.0.
Ideas already thought of:
MeshMeet
Paint
Importing Applications
workspaces
file system
sharing paint drawings with mesh
Scrolling up and down on pages
a browser called "SpiderWeb"
better graphics
xfilesystem
Mods, this is not a duplicate thread. Our main thread is already cluttered and I don't want it to get too confusing.
If you want to use one of these ideas in your OS and it is a new idea, please say "The idea of using ____ in an OS was originally thought of by the TechMaster OS 2.0 collaboration, lead by Rocket101"

Re: TM 2.0 collab sub-thread: ideas
The dock should be more streamlined and less cluttered. Look at the dock in SkyOS Alpha for ideas. http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/waveOSBeta/1245806

UPCOMING JOBS (you can request them, JUST DON"T DO IT UNTIL HD123 IS DONE WITH MINIMIZATION) (from order of most important to least):
Minimization System (reserved and in progress by HD123)
Cleaning up the graphics
Workspaces (reserved by me)
More user friendly interface
An importing application platform and SDK
Login system
MeshMeet
Less Simulation and More Reality (no fake files, no fake internet, no loading bar)
NOTE: in case anyone is interested, here is a couple mesh chatrooms that we can look at for inspiration for meshmeet

EDIT don't anyone make MeshMeet untill we have an importing application platform.
I don't think we should create MeshMeet if we want this to be like a real OS. Mesh is too glitchy, it takes too long to set up, etc. We could make it look nice, but it still won't function well. Mesh is probably going to be improved in Scratch 2.0, but we are making TM 2.0 with Scratch 1.4. If it is so glitchy, it will not seem like a real OS.

Ideas already thought of:
MeshMeet ✗ Even with the best interface and mesh programming, mesh is too hard to use and glitchy for this to be good quality.
Paint ✓ Make sure it has good graphics and many capabilities.
Importing Applications ✓ This is a great idea if we make it efficient.
workspaces ? What are workspaces?
file system ✓ Users should be able to create files, save them, open them and change them.
sharing paint drawings with mesh ✗ I do not support this idea because mesh is too glitchy.
Scrolling up and down on pages ✓ This is just like a real OS. If scrolling is needed on some pages, then we will use a scrollbar.
a browser called "SpiderWeb" ✗ rocket101 wants TM 2.0 to be like a real OS, not a "simulated" OS.
better graphics ✓ TM 2.0 should have as good graphics as possible.
xfilesystem ? I know this is a file system that TRocket made, but what is the "x" for?
These are my opinions on the ideas.

Re: TM 2.0 collab sub-thread: ideas
I want to join, but I'm kinda new to this stuff. I'm working on an ipad for scratch, so I know some basics on user interface and such. So if you are willing to let me join, cool. If not, that's fine too.
Are you an aspiring home decorator? If so, please answer my question!

A couple of features for paint:

Square & circle drawer: Read the name
Line drawer
