Well, the other guy doesn't have replied me, so if you're still interested in help me with some design I'd be very happy.

Definitely, can you give me some specs as per sizes and the icons you'll be needing, I'll get you some proofs for tomorrow. Hopefully joppu doesn't come here and yell at me this time lol

What are your qualifications to design UIs for maemo 5?

Maybe this thread can serve usefully as a place to place relevant links..

I need four icons for Maemo WordPy (a blogging application), it's for the initial screen where you can choose between four options: "Create post", "Manage posts", "Settings" and "Upload Media".

So, it would be an icon for each option, I don't have any preference for the look, just they shouldn't be very dark because in Maemo 5 the themes generally are dark.

The better size would be 100x100, but if it's a bit different doesn't matter, even if they aren't completely square.


Thank you so much!

New Post Icon, Edit Post Icon, need some ideas/inspiration for the other icons... Do you have a thread already for the app? Maybe some of the contributing community could help out with the ideas.

Thanks

I added a settings Icon, just a gear with the same layer styles as the "Background" of the other icons, just need to come up with somehting for upload media and i htink we're good to go.

Absolutely ZERO qualifications, but I think the n900 + Maemo is bad ***, and I have some design skills... and numchuck skills.

Thanks Joshua!

Wicked, I'm happy you're pleased dude.

yerga, you may want to left align the icon with the "Create Post" and move "Welcome to Maemo WordPy" so it is 10 - 20 pixels from the right edge of the icon. Maybe wazd has some ideas for the ui side of the app?

Relax man, I never meant to poke you or something. Just noticed that 2 designers have chosen same gear out of all stock sets.

I was just poking back duke! In all serious though, do you have any recommendations for WordPy, I feel the UI is lacking, can we organize content better to enhance the usability/feel of the app?

Recant your thank! Recant your thank! Well to be fair, I think he may have put his own layer styles, because the version I found was just a solid black vector of the gear.

The small icon in the left is gone now, and the "Welcome" string is centered. It looks better so.

About the UI, I have tried to follow every thing I learned from ARJWright, when he gave me some guidelines for the Maemo4 version.

I have received good feedback about the new version even it being unfinished, so I'm happy for the time being. Of course I'll be charmed to receive ideas, specially how to do easier the application without removing functionality.

Okay, so what's next? I'm doing an icon for the Personal Photo Frame but I'll be done that tomorrow.

Use me people, use me!
