Description Here is a icon viewer I've been working on lately. More than the design, I took a long time choosing the concept. The whole thing is using a "host" as a menu, to point you out throught the website ang give a little plus of fun to everything.

1. Loading application

2. Welcome screen, host present himself

3. Customisation of host. Availibility of 8 colors for tie, suit and head. I got every little aspect of the programmation planned for this step so no worries about it

4. Background transition principle beetween each part of the website

5. Browsing icon set list

6. Browsing icon sets.

Some subpages are still missing since I will not embed all icons within the application but throught xml, so a loding of those one will have to be done.

The mouse over on the "host" will make appear extra options like a little button to return to the customisation page and an about page.

if anybody as a cool name for my host, I'll be glad with some help. Something that would sound funny but very classy majordomish


EDIT: Color scheme is being CHANGED

Pretty cool, I wouldn't worry about the Sinthux thing. The only similarities are the colours and colours are not exactly owned by anybody.

Quite honestly I really don't see how they resemble each other that well except the very bottom with the similiar color gradients. What you have here is considerably different from Sinthux overall.

At this point in time color and layout is very clean and simple which I really like, the design is keep-worthy. I'll wait for those color changes with the next version.

thx!!!

Already working on the next version. Normally colors will be more dynamic and even more simplier (clean goes by it since that's the first things I try to get )

Yep, tu as tres bien su montrer le DL pour que ca reste dans l'esprit
Mais je rejoinds RanaSpot pour dire que la page de chargement est ennuyante
Ptete faire genre un habillage du host :3 ( meme si c'est surement tres dur a mettre en place )

LeMex In reply to JulienPradet [2009-04-21 09:29:58 +0000 UTC]

hehe, je vais voir si je change ce donwload. ça reste le dl de l'app complète, et je pars du principe que tout ceci est embarqué dans l'appli, et donc doit rester extrèmement leger en poid . De toutes façons je suis en train d'effectuer de fronfond changement car ça m'enerve énormément que des gens m'accusent d'avoir plagié leurs travail quand ça n'est pas du tout le cas... c triste

donc grand changements effectués à l'instant

Is not what the Sinthux ( Dalton) think. xD

LeMex In reply to DouglasEltz [2009-04-21 08:52:47 +0000 UTC]

1. Is there a copy right on a color palette?

2. Did he really came and see the principe of this app. Flash based app, with a host and animations. No blog and all. I mean except the color, there is not ONE single element that is the same than the other template..

2. If that's what he thinks why he doesn't come and say it. Or send me a note. Wouldn't be the first time


I'm pretty sad with all that stuff, because this is really something I took out of my mind without the help of anybody. And if you look at the comments on other deviations of my galery, everytime I did something for training and I had the inspiration from another template I never hidden myself from that, I accepted it because it was inspiration and it was training. This time it wasn't and it's pretty dispointing to see that people don't even respect your work.

Anyway I'll take it out during the day and I'll change drasticly the color scheme so there will be no more problems...

Sorry if I offended in any way, but spoke with the Sinthux and he said that you copied his work, so from now on not I who will solve it, but you and Sinthux.
Then talk and solve all these problems.
And sorry again.

LeMex In reply to DouglasEltz [2009-04-20 23:16:53 +0000 UTC]

I don't think that has really something to do. Sinthux is for me one of the best webdesigners out there and of course I've passed throught his gallery many times and I've seen is work. But I never based this work on his and didn't intended so...

I wouldn't stress over it. The two sites are completely different. Even the colors are quite different with yours being a darker gray and blue

I think it's a disservice to even bring it up unless it's a very obvious rip.

There are way too many sites out there now and just about anything you come up with unless totally outlandish is going to slightly resemble someone's work somewhat.

I wouldn't change the colors, you picked them for a reason.

I like the concept but I'm not sure if you should offer so many options so you can keep it a little simpler.

LeMex In reply to tecwzrd [2009-04-21 13:34:54 +0000 UTC]

Oh, you think it's complicated? I wanted to add a little fun thing to it, but maybe less customisation options would be good.

Anyway I'm re seeing the whole design. I've picked organic colors (brown and green) to give it a little more dynamic feeling. The host bubbles and boxes are going to change completely, so I might redo the whole ergonomy and interaction. I'm even going to erase this one I think...

tecwzrd In reply to LeMex [2009-04-21 14:13:08 +0000 UTC]

Even if redoing it completely I'd keep it just as a record. Most web "hosts" are mostly just to act as a small guide to the site and should be kept simple. Adding customization is fine but 3-5 options should be enough. Content is what should keep them around

LeMex In reply to tecwzrd [2009-04-21 14:22:50 +0000 UTC]

ok, I'll keep heavily that in mind in the new design

RanaSpot In reply to LeMex [2009-04-21 00:27:16 +0000 UTC]

same colors that's all, I think your layout really different than his.

I really loved what you did its look really cool but you need to do something with 1. Loading application, its look a little bit boring

and goooooooooooooooood luck
