Colour Palettes

Here's some color references for my final project

and i pick 5 colors for each color palettes.

Flow Chart...

It's another post again...

this round i'll talk a little bit about what is flow chart

and how it works.

flowchart are actually looks similar with mind-map but the different is

flowchart is all about the 'starting', 'task/process', 'decision', 'conclusion'.

they use many different way to show in flowchart like

using oval shaped as the 'starting', the rectangle shaped for 'task/process',

the diamond shaped for 'decision'.

these shapes are commonly used in flowchart presentation

and it works out perfectly because

it allow everyone to get the

big picture of the details.

well...this is part of my assignment

so here's the questions...

Why do you want to use flowchart in your mobile interface design & screen interface design?

Sometimes we might get stuck in the details of our idea, for avoiding this kind of situation i think flowchart is one of the way to solve the problem. It allow everyone to get the big picture of the details and also the easier way to let us see clearly during the process of our work. The visual display of this process helps convey the high level structure and the details in the way that written procedure simply cannot.

How will it help your users to meet the interactive goals?

I think is just the boundary of the process, the starting events and the end result then start listing the steps of the process. So the users probably would know what is next after this, through this it also helps the audience or users to know the whole process easier to understand, more informative and more effective.

okay...i just finished the questions.

now it's your turn to give the feedback

from my answers.

Graphic User Interface Icons

This is my icon design

using the concept of flower and also this concept picked by lecturer

and so i have to do something with the icon and the flower

this is my result...

"Contact" icon & "Home" icon

( Pixel/Raster Icon )

"Contact" icon & "Home" icon

( Vector Icon)

_________________________________________________________

For the Vector "Contact" icon...

i refine already

This is the before and after.

Before & After

for the 1st design i didn't do any sketches about

how it's going to be look like

then i just simply made one.

after that our lecturer said that we still can refine it

but yea i can refine whenever i want...

what about the marks?

by the way...

for the updated "Contact" icon

what I've change is the leaves and the flower

and i added some details for the phone also

because i heard somebody said

the phone looks like a Tobacco Pipe =.='''

yea and i added the details on it to avoid it

so it won't looks like

the smoke pipe anymore!

well...the details does help a lot.

O ya... and the flower

the design, the colors...inspired me by Kagaya's Artwork

SookChiung ask us to do this assignment in class and submit on the same day.

all we learn from this icon is how to make the icon's lighting.
