Guest Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 4/10hm.. the buttons dont really fit… Maybe making the buttons darker and a different shade of blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Just as I thought, you didn't manage to make a GUI that fit in with the button style.The layout really reminds me of my GUI as well >_>![](http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e112/Kite_Minase/icons.png)I think the placement of the buttons should be worked on. Do something similar to I did. Having the buttons in a box doesn't look good, especially when they're not aligned and take up so much vertical space.Your GUI style is pretty piss-poor. Go work with some textures and layer styles, not shitty little images that make the outline of your GUI impossible to see properly.Generally it needs a lot of work, and you need to ditch that button style altogether.

Robin Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Pretty much. The fact is though, you have no textures. It's just an image with a few lines drawn over it.I'm not saying to copy my GUI style, I'm just saying it's got the basics down pretty well. Don't use one image between panels. Use different textures so it's easy to see which is a border and which is a frame, work on your layout some more, as the buttons look terrible there, and lighten it up, as I can't differentiate the lines from the background.

bambam Posted August 17, 2008 Author Share Posted August 17, 2008 ok i updated thanks alot to robin, i have used a wood like texture, and a similar outline to robin's gui. please look at top for the image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Much better, just choose a different texture. That doesn't look like wood at all.Use the same texture techniques I used in my GUI tutorial, in the tutorial section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bambam Posted August 18, 2008 Author Share Posted August 18, 2008 i dont mean to say ur tutorial is shit, or your gui is shit, i really think its magnififcent, but i you understand where i come from, i prefer to do things myself, but thank you and i will work on more textures, please, would u have any ideas on textures that you will are good?

Robin Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 I'm not saying use the tutorial, I'm saying my tutorial explains how to make a much better texture in photoshop. Go read that bit to understand how to make your textures work better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadowmancer Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 The top also needs to be conected at the intersections alite more, the bottom needs rounder buttons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elder-Bunny Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 The 1sts background bugs me because of its… annoyingness.The buttons don't fit and the wood buttons in particular aren't that great (the darkness and the simple border makes them look wrong).

Robin Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 @†βΛѪ:> i just realised but> > how would u no its wood then?Because I know what a texture looks like when it's trying to look like wood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucifer1101 Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 ummm ive worked in a kitchen making company and that wood texture looks like something i saw there but it wasnt wood it was just a laminate representing wood. and the laminate would go around some crappy chipboard. so i think he has it down tap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
