Your thoughts please...
« on: 28 November 2006, 17:31:03 »

Some of you may know i am currently doing my final year multimedia project at Brunel Uni.

I am making a multimeda application that will run on mobile phones, designed for Theme parks such as Thorpe Park. You soon will be able to text a number and my program will be sent to your phone. Basics are it gives u techy info on rides, speeds, gforces ect... also how the rides working techincally. There will also be a queue tools system where it will give you a live up to date queue time of a ride on your phone, i have butched up 2 designs in photoshop... what do ya think?

Design 1



Design 2



Thanks

P.S Should be making a questionaire soon, but if there was any one feature you would want on your mobile in a theme park let me know! .... (apart from a sick bag ;D)

Design 1 is a lot better. The second design is quite harsh on the eye

thanks, i was thinking that... not made a copy that will work on my phone yet. the only problem is resolution.

I have a Nokia N70 & N80. The N80's screen is much, much sharper and brighter, but i need it to work on the N70's

Just working on a 3rd design now...

I do agree no1 is softer on the eyes.....but i was just thinking that dont forget you will be outside and no2 might be easier to see esp if the suns out.
And dont forget the 1/2 blind gits like me......no2 would easier to see....im long sighted and already have to hold my mobile at arms length to read the display  :'(

The larger text will make it clearer on phones, esp those with smaller screens. Not entirely convinced with font though, but readability is key :y

cheers for the replys all  :)

The font is not a standard one, i found it on 'betterfonts.com' - I'd like to use a non-standard font to give it a differnt look.

Must thank TD.. just given me an idea for some cool testing! - We are supposed to design/test our ideas. I could take photos of each design outside in the daylight! - Cheers TD  :y
