[Mockup] MetroAlaska

Stranger Wrote:?

That was just in case you are planning to base your skin on Windows Phone 7 interface and was wondering what font it used. The font used by Microsoft is the one cited above.

In case you were wondering.

This idea is beautiful. I'd love to see a dark version like the first couple of shots Stranger posted on the first page.

I think that if this skin does get made, i will make a dark version as well.

You might want to have a look at the official WP7 Design Guidelines published by Microsoft.

Great Post. Reksveks although I love the idea and your persistence I'm becoming less of a fan of the outcome. I'm not sure your really thinking this out or just throwing together mock ups in PS. I don't like the design elements your using or the layout. I sound like an asshole but I really think this should stand out as a tribute to metro.

It probably is the latter that i am just throwing alot of mockups in PS, i kinda feel that i have to keep up doing something or the idea will die.

Will relook at my mock-ups though. Can you give me anything more specific in terms of want you don't like or would like ?
Something more like a panorama design ?

The library menu's, they are overkill and unnecessary.
The clock/crumb (Although probably temp?)
thumbs/frames/overlays/fade's
Type placement's and size

I am concerned about a number of things but it would be easier to mock up my views instead of rambling criticisms. I'll re-post.
