Topic: interface test (Page 1 of 1)

Hello, what u think about this interface.
It is a simple idea, and it needs a lot work.
Thank you.

i forgot the url www.fillow.com

While the graphics work looks excellent, the layout of the interface instantly made me think of the new look for the fxZone at Eyeball Design. Which, I am under the impression, is a fairly well know site.

While the similiarties may be coincidental, the level of similarities may make other question your originality of design.

There also appear to be issues with clipping. The starting location of the center piece of the interface starts clipped in the beginning, and this looks accidental to me.

Also, for me anyways, 13 seconds of glimmer before the interface becomes usable is too long (one of the things that the fxZone interface does well, is after download it is available in under 3 seconds).

my 2 cents

DigitalUbiquity

YOU ARE RIGHT.
i AM NEW TO PHOTOSHOP, AND I AM FOLLOWING SOME TUTORIALS FOR THE MOMENT.
THE BLUE LINES, AND SOME BALLS STYLES ARE SIMILAR, CAUSE I HAVE LEARNT READING THOSE PAGES AND OTHERS.
ANYWAY... I WILL NOT PUBLISH THIS WEB... IS ONLY FOR TRAINING.
THANKS FOR LOOKING IT

fillow: Nice work. I'm no Flash expert so just a few comments:

1. Either I had my speakers too loud or those noises were very loud - I nearly jumped out of my seat!! I'm not overly fond of too much audio (esp. if it doesn't seem to serve much of a purpose).

2. You've got a permission denied JavaScript error.

3. You balls look a little jaggy.

It doesn't seem to do much else. Nice work keep testing new ideas and keep posting back here when the site develops.

Emps

Yup. Emps has the lowdown, and beat me to it. However, I like the piece. Not bad, do more.

There's just way to much movement for no actual purpose.

I keep thinking it's done, and then soemthing else slides across the screen and then back off.

It seems to demonstrate an ability to make objects move around, but not much else at this point.

I would suggest a bit more practice on the graphics - get the jaggies smoothed out, get a bit more contrast and fine detail into them. Not a bad start on that front, but they are all a bit cliche.

On the Flash, I would recommend limiting the movement to things that are a bit more relevant, and perhaps less time consuming.

Thank you very much for your coments

Yeah, my only real beef was the audio. The sound effects on the balls are cool, but the rest are too loud.

yup, echo all the comments above, especially the one by DL-44 about 'just when you think its done" LOL

Very Eyeballesque! Not a rip by a long way but still anyone who knows eyeball will think eyeball. That cant be helped sometime.

As you develop your PS skills, you should find in time that you will develop your own style, so keep working on all the tuts you can find and most importantly 'experiment'.

180kb was a little slow as a DL, might think about using a preloader or similar.

yes, vp is right.
eyeball was the first thing i thought of when i saw it.
the bows on the top left and bottom right as well as the balls are kinda significant.

anyways isnt eyeball giving away interfaces for free?

RY has an interface 'depot' where you can DL interface templates for use yes. Finished interfaces I dont think so

Hi , and thanks again for coments.
I agree about the interface is similar to eyefx, cause like i have said i dont have very much experience, and when i saw his page, i tryed to follow his tutorials and tryed to create some graphic, so is normal.
I think, if i follow lots of differents tutorials, some day i will be able to combine the techniques and develop my own style.
I have another question.
To be a web designer u have to control lots of diferents things (java, dhtml, flash, photoshop etc, etc).
How did u do this? You started with one thing till u had and advanced level and u followed with another one? or did u do all at the same time?
For the moment, i am learning selfstuding, with internet tutorials.... Did u do the same? or did u follow some curses or somehting like that.
Thank you and see u.

The poster has demanded we remove all his contributions, less he takes legal action.
We have done so.
Now Tyberius Prime expects him to start complaining that we removed his 'free speech' since this message will replace all of his posts, past and future.
Don't follow his example - seek real life help first.

INI, thx for the info.
And u dont use programs like dreamweaver? u write the code? or only for special situations...
Ok, i will keep trying cause, however i have discovered this some months ago.. .i really love it.
I will post my future works here, cause the feedback is really positive for learning.
