Simple is the way : that's the first thing I learnt while designing user interface... my first version was rather messy and not as unified. That was scraped and version 2 was up with the firm mindset of keeping it simple and easy on the eyes. That was version 2, I focused more on the various "pop up" windows layout. The buttons came out as a disaster since I don't really have much time to spend on it...looks like the UI wasn't quite well received and I feel a little like I've let down my teammates but never mind, i shall march forward and read up on more books and see if i can improve and make it better. A little setback but nevermind, I shan't be dishearted for long, there isn't time for it anyway...keep moving on!!
Sometimes I always wonder if I am ever good enough, a stupid self confidence issue of mine but I will keep telling myself that I'd be okay, there's a reason why I am here and I'd just give my best and things will eventually work out >.<
Anyway, give my all and learn what I can is the route i'd take, but of course, think and learn smart, now on to study more about GUI...
In the world of hell and heaven, each person have a very very long spoon. In hell, everyone starves because they can't feed themselves but in heaven, everyone is always full since they feed each other.
No worries, you aren't really expected to have a polished UI in place by mid-assignment submission, and you're really only submitting so that Dr Ben can nitpick around a little and point out stuff that he would like to see by the end of the assignment - almost like 'revealing the marking scheme' yknow. So don't be disheartened by his nitpicks ;) We just want your apps to be the best it can be by the deadline.
ReplyDeleteFWIW I thought gentoo was really cute and look forward to seeing the final version :) Keep up the good work!
thanks a lot :) mwhaaha, our group chionging it out now :) as of just a few minutes ago, i just barely finish the version 3 XD, i would like to think that this one'd be nicer <3
ReplyDeletethis is a project that my group's really ON and passionate about. We really pour in loads of effort want it to come out good >.< though there's a lot of penguin ref, we'd love for it to work >.<
and nah, im not really expecting myself to be perfect or something.. i was only really expecting myself to keep on improving "i shall be better today than i am yesterday :)" and look at the time, i'd be finally able to slp at night. so for the few times that i really mean it, good nightz >.<
