# Jul 19th 2009, 15:44 pointlessjon_ alkemann I think we discussed this at cakefest, but not sure how many beers deep we were
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:41 pointlessjon_ login user and pass fields should always just be visible on the page somewhere, in my opinion (one less click)
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:41 pointlessjon_ modal is perfect for registration
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:39 Phally you mean the registering/logging in users or listening to music?
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:34 alkemann if would recommend songza.com instead for the same functionality
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:30 alkemann it gets it's music from youtuve and the interface inside is not that great though
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:30 pointlessjon_ cool concept
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:29 pointlessjon_ or, if it was just moved to the very top, or just above the teaser - otherwise I have to work through the intro text and whatnot
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:28 Phally agreed, the positioning isn't the best, but when on a separated page with only such a register form, it would work better i guess
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:28 pointlessjon_ very true
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:27 alkemann pointlessjon well important detail on that statement is that ur intuition in this case is highly trained expectation. for new computer users, this one is actually more intiutive
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:27 pointlessjon_ P
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:27 pointlessjon_ and, i was scouring the top right and left for a good 700ms
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:27 pointlessjon_ but it wasn't intuitive enough -- i had to read too much to figure out what the fields are
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:27 Phally yeah, register is fun
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:26 pointlessjon_ i give it 100 points for originality
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:26 markstory ok
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:25 alkemann i like the login and register parts alot
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:25 alkemann thats a great front page
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:25 pointlessjon_ nate had mentioned possibly revisiting the palette

# Jul 19th 2009, 15:24 markstory I have a list somewhere.
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:24 markstory there are about 8-10 colours that are used on most cakephp branded things.
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:23 Phally wait, i read a ticket about colors
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:23 markstory as could the decoration for test cases.
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:23 markstory even just the face plates could work. The indentation and lego like structure could be maintained.
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:23 Phally give the Ds a blue gradient :p
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:22 pointlessjon_ ;)
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:22 pointlessjon_ however, if we also used color
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:22 markstory this can of course be offset through colour coding.
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:22 pointlessjon_ good point
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:22 markstory so if we need 32x32 versions they might not look as slick or readable.
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:22 markstory my only other concern with them is the isometric prespective is going to make them harder to read at smaller sizes.
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:21 alkemann nothing wrong in being inspired by the best :)
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:21 pointlessjon_ yeah i felt that way too -- it wasn't intentional! my original sketches looked more like construx
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:17 Phally like it too
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:17 markstory yeah
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:17 Phally the Ds did it
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:17 markstory not a bad thing though.
# Jul 19th 2009, 15:16 markstory these icons remind me of adobe products.
