[G] I like Shiny

Posted by Glen on Dec. 17, 2009, 3:31 p.m.

It's been almost two years but my first entry to 64digits, Xenoban, has been overhauled. I'm working on the new gui and adding new features once again to the old banner/button manipulator. Here's a screenshot of it so far. I'm redoing the whole project from scratch.

The whole program is using .png images to give it a nice visual presentation and i'm hoping to have files saved in .png so the banners/buttons made with this program are high quality.

I'm also using the same glossy gui for my room editor program which is also in progress but I don't have a nice screenshot to show off at the moment. The progress in that particular program is not as great as Xenoban. I'm still working on ways to resolve problems I've run into with the new room editor program.

I like shiny.

Glossy doesn't always mean good.

Well I sure as hell can't make "glossy" buttons, but all I can say is it looks just a bit overdone

I like shiny as well. I don't like that screenshot, though.

PNGs are great, I hate jpegs.

put a white glow around your logo, put transparency on the background gray boxes. (under all the buttons and shit. that needs some alpha)

then yeah center the text on the buttons. then find a better appearance for your XP. though, i remember them being douchebags and disabling a lot of them once…
