Guys, i bet u think it GOOD
head part of my new interface design
welcome any comment or critique

Hmmm, I like it. The blue parts could use a little more shading, and maybe they would look better overall if they were darker. I like the wooden part of it (it looks like wood, i suppose it might just be a brown sort of metal). The single-pixel indentations/bevels look cool, too. I assume the two wires on the right will go down along the right side of the page?

yes, it is good -- looks like something you'd see at eyeball design....that wouldn't happen to be you would it? I don't really care for the baby blue...just a personal aversion.

The color scheme is awful, but it looks pretty good other than that.

Negative on the color choice there man. Blue and brown dont mix well. If the buttons were brown and blue on the mouseover that would be one thing (Cause brown inverted on PS is blue) but the bright blue with an earthy brown is not working. Try keeping them in the same colors, just different tones and shades. The design is really nice though. <img border=0 align=absmiddle src="http://www.ozones.com/forum/biggrin.gif">

Not bad at all. I would definately kill the baby blue... its almost painful <img border=0 align=absmiddle src="http://www.ozones.com/forum/wink.gif"> The graphic looks a little soft also... I assume the red and blue are supposed to be metal.. but their shading represents more of a plastic (other than a few lighting hints). The other thing that bothers me is that the shadows are very soft, and the blue portions do not look like they attach at all to the red, but simply lay on top. The blue also has no bevel on the edges, or shading for that matter. Once again, they just don't "tie in", or even look like part of the wholee piece. The right blue piece also doesnt cast any shadow or have any separation from the wires to it's right, which glares at the eye a bit.

I think the look you're going for is very tech and industrial.. and while the shape and layout accomplish that, the colors and shading make me think more of nerf toy or something. The reason I'm being a little harsh is that I think you have some good design abilities inside you, and at this stage in your progress, you need to be harsh on your work in order to grow. Keep working!
