I'll put them up after the weekend.
What would users want on the "Home" or "Main" screen?
There is buttons for each category "Media, Lights. Climate, Telephony, Security and Advanced".
I've placed a button for room and user. Time is displayed, thinking of a "Now playing status screen" and maybe a volume control?
Any suggestions welcome.
Karel

HI,
Well here is the screenshots of some of the menu's. There is still alot of work to be done before its complete. More than I initially thought. These pics are taken from my laptop running the windows orbiter.
I need some suggestions for the main menu. What to place in it thats useful for users.
I did put a "cd cover display" in that shows the thumbnail of the movie playing at the moment, but it's not working at the moment.
Any suggestions welcome.
Karel

Keep in mind, that the button array for the reset buttons will create a button for each media director in the house. It doesn't look like you have much room for it below.

One very minor observation from an appearance point of view:
The graphics within the lighting, security, climate, and settings circles all contain diagonal objects (light bulb, key, thermometer, and wrench, respectively). They are mostly all 45 degree rotated, except for the thermometer which is a bit off. Dunno if you can rotate it to match...
Otherwise looks great!

DragonK this looks amazing, superb work!
if i may make 1 suggestion, make the background a very dark color (almost black),
for instance very, very dark purple. this will give your great design a very classy and high-end look.
looking forward to using your skin,
br,
Raymond

HI Raymond,
I'll experiment with the background colors and see what I come up with.
Anyone got some suggestions for the MainMenu???
It looks a bit dull at the moment..

Hey nice work! Keep going... we'd love to see a thriving interest in new UI's designs and ideas being discussed and worked on here :-) All the best Andrew |

i would say, very basic control-buttons for media playback and lights, so that you have quick access to them. br, Raymond |

I would say, on the main menu a button <now playing>
So if you are in lightning screen you can quickly go back to your movie
etc etc
