It's a bit subtle (at least on my screen; be aware that low contrast elements can be clearly visible on some displays and undetectable on others).

I'd make it stronger, maybe even highlight-blue. I can hardly see this highlight. Also, what is the blue "Watch QuickTime Introduction" at the bottom?

I think what Uli and I meant was a selection style for the icons in the bottom row. Currently the user doesn?t know what icon he has clicked.

Check out this new selection type: http://media.clickablebliss.com/temp/welcome_screen_v2.mov Thanks for all the feedback guys! ~ Mike -- Thu, 28 Jan 2010 20:39:23 GMT Christopher Forsythe http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/mac-gui-dev/message/1040 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/mac-gui-dev/message/1040 Small nitpick. "has been built" could be changed to "can" and would probably sound better when spoken out loud.

As long as it is clear where the animation loops, that sounds like a good idea. Though I would consider just losing the text and going all screencast, with Thu, 28 Jan 2010 09:04:11 GMT Rafael Bugajewski http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/mac-gui-dev/message/1038 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/mac-gui-dev/message/1038 ... I really like the design and the idea of this welcome screen. There?s a little bit too much free space below the text, but I think it?s still OK.

I currently sell an invoice app called Billable. Working on its version 2 atm (will be renamed ProfitTrain). Anyways in Billable I wanted to soften Thu, 21 Jan 2010 18:04:57 GMT Uli Kusterer http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/mac-gui-dev/message/1036 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/mac-gui-dev/message/1036 ... Also: Many people don't know that you can actually type the start of a menu item's title and it will select that menu item. Even in the menu bar's pulldown Thu, 21 Jan 2010 17:52:00 GMT Benjamin Ragheb http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/mac-gui-dev/message/1035 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/mac-gui-dev/message/1035 ... Having seen the screenshot, I'd vote for either of these. You are trying to satisfy a user who is complaining about using the mouse, right? Someone like Thu, 21 Jan 2010 17:49:09 GMT Benjamin Ragheb http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/mac-gui-dev/message/1034 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/mac-gui-dev/message/1034 ... Thank you! I really like "sticker" and "badge", those are the kinds of term I was looking for.

There's no way for the user to name the fields within the app because it's not necessary: they are represented by the images everywhere.

Thanks, but I think pictograph, pictogram, and glyph focus on the wrong thing; those words are basically more complicated synonyms for "icon".

Your concerns are going off on a tangent... the last button can be used to record a number instead of a on/off state, but it's a very specific thing and
