Nothing Fancy Just A Screenshot

I am looking for some input on screenshots. Scott you made this program too flexible. LOL. Does this screenshot look too busy? I made this screen shot in 10 Minutes. I am looking for simplicity, on my screen shots. I am currently looking at incorporating an iphone look-a-like too.

I know there was an iphone screenshot on the forum at on time but I guess the pop-up site is not working anymore, or something. So I had to hit the drawing board. I am up for constructive critizism. As I finish different screens I will post them.

It's all a matter of personal taste!

Personally I think that screen is slightly busy, but workable... But I stress... That is MY TASTE!!!

In fact, one of the hardest things find with HB is backgrounds, layouts and buttons. I found that generating nice, smooth unique looking buttons is kinda difficult. Backgrounds I find dark, none repeating pattern works well. Layout I've found I can make my look "sleeker" and "sexier" by using crisper fonts.

I'll post a screen shot tonight.

And my taste is TACKY!!! LOL... J/K I thought it looked a little busy too. I just needed some one to voice what I was thinkng. I only attached low-res screenshot to preserve space on the forum.

I definitely like that one better, just not crazy about the "snow" falling in the background...

Wow, it takes you ten minutes to take a screenshot? I can do that in just one second

Everybody's own I guess. The most important thing for me would be to have the complete theme in the same setting. So all panels must have about the same look and also the same feel (ergonomicly speaking).

Always nice to see other ones creations.

Wow I think I need to adjust my screen at work! All I saw on your background was black with white/grey specs. Now I'm at home, I can actually see that it's a texture/pattern.

There are still a couple of minor things that need touching up on my theme, in fact, it's a continuous work in progress.

That looks Great. I like the color schemes. That is giving me some ideas to work with. Thanks for sharing.

Too many colors for me. . . I like the first few better. What is the screen size?

My screen size on my touch tablet is 800 x 600
