[QUOTE=PC Camp;19296238]Any better?[/QUOTE] No, it's still incredibly ugly. How can you not see this? Look at some examples of good user interfaces, then copy those. [b]Edit:[/b] Also writing like a retard isn't funny, clever, smart, or whatever you think it is. Like seriously.

[QUOTE=PC Camp;19296238]:words:[/QUOTE] Hard to tell since MS Paint kinda makes it look worse. Ide rather keep it simplistic.

[url]http://www.colourlovers.com/[/url] Stick to a handful of colors at most. Either choose all curved corners, or straightened ends, and lose the gradients, poor implementation can make things look gaudy - go for its usage on the background, but if you do, make it subtle. As for the borders, try not to make them so thick, it distracts the viewer.

Meh, I like it. I've never been artistic EVER in my life. [editline]04:37AM[/editline] -snip- [editline]04:38AM[/editline] I used this website to get my scheme. [url]http://colorschemedesigner.com/#3n31Ow0w0w0w0[/url]

And you're still not I'm afraid. Please, stop while you're behind or have a decent go at making something less utterly shit.

[QUOTE=PC Camp;19296356]Freedom of speech.[/QUOTE] What about the right to be left alone and not harrased by people like you? Oh wait.. Right... it just shows your a dumb shit :3:

You're very welcome PC Camp. I enjoy your chat log concept. Very nice work.

[QUOTE=andrewmcwatters;19296034]That's an image you're creating, not me.[/QUOTE] You know, it's wierd but I used to feel sorry for you. You were a poor autisic boy who didn't know how to properly behave in the Hacker society of Facepunch and were therefore ending up coming across as a moron. Now I just think you're a twat. Bravo. :golfclap: [editline]10:17AM[/editline] Oh, and just so this post is on topic, your work is unique and stands out from the crowd. This, however, is not a good thing when it comes down to user interface design. The average user over the age of 13 will always want a clean smooth and minimalist design that gives the maximum information with the minimum fuss or bother. You will note that both this forum and the default Derma skin are a mixture of smooth greys with occasional splashes of colour to highlight important information. It may be boring and uninteresting, but this is because you do not need to be interested in it, it is the content it provides that is of interest to you. Hope this helps.

The Live Control Panel looks better than the scoreboard.

Final production of the scoreboard!!! It has a unique hostname display because the elements around it auto adjust to the size and length of the hostname string. It can also fit really long hostnames!

[editline]07:07AM[/editline] Now I can get some sleep...

It's not the color scheme that is the problem, it's the textures. [editline]01:34PM[/editline] Or actually the color scheme might look a bit vivid. (the one you picked out from here [url]http://colorschemedesigner.com/#3n31Ow0w0w0w0[/url])

Are you 12? Because that is [b]seriously[/b] ugly. Some tips to make it less hideous: [list] [*]Lose the red background to the text [*]Tone the violent green down. [*]Those buttons could be nicer, but I'm not sure how, short of a new texture [*]Round the corners. Some styles complement straight clean lines. Yours doesn't. [/list]

Looks pretty standard but so far so good.

Needs less bright colours, more dark ones.

[QUOTE=Lexic;19298712]Are you 12?[/QUOTE] Damn Straight he is!

Looks terrible. [list=] [*]No consistency between colours [*] Font looks ugly [*]Why has the "G" got it's entire own background? [*]Seriously, colour scheme = my eyes bleed [/list]

Guys, don't dog on the poor guy. It's not his fault he was born colorblind. :rimshot:

Your title is confusing.. You say you made this from scratch, but you also say this is a modification.. Are you saying this can be modified, or did you just throw together the coolest title your mind could think of?

[QUOTE=Lexic;19298712]Are you 12? [*]Tone the violent green down. [/list][/QUOTE] It's the players team name. Look, I don't give two fucks about how I present the scoreboard because it's 100% fully customizable; color scheme, font, border/thickness, etc. The point of this scoreboard is to add features to a scoreboard. Any ideas on the name? The name is definitely not final... [editline]02:45PM[/editline] [QUOTE=nick10510;19304857] Are you saying this can be modified, or did you just throw together the coolest title your mind could think of?[/QUOTE] I need a new title... This is all from scratch and you can modify this in almost every way possible. [editline]02:48PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Wizey!;19296439]*Presses console button* OH LOOK!!! A CHAT LOG!!![/QUOTE] The console is usually loaded with messages from other addons. Plus it's all gray color tone.

[QUOTE=PC Camp;19304958] Look, I don't give two fucks about how I present the scoreboard because it's 100% fully customizable; color scheme, font, border/thickness, etc. [/QUOTE] And this is where you went wrong trying to design a user interface that people >13 years of age will enjoy using. [editline]03:55PM[/editline] You can't post [img]http://i304.photobucket.com/albums/nn198/PC_Camp/hl2006-2.png[/img] and then lead us to believe you're not 12 years old. :geno:

The scoreboard doesn't need features added to it though, it does what it says on the tin, keeps track of the designated scores. Think about how you're trying to present this to people, because I know that when I first join a server, I sure as hell don't check the scoreboard.

vile

Instead of flaming someone attempting to create the next admin mod that doesn't suck, help him improve. (Gbps im talking to you.) Too be honest, the scoreboard is perfectly fine, keep it as is, it fits the style of Gmod very well and I would love to have it, keep going!

I'm not flaming anyone, I simply want him to understand what a professional approach to an admin mod is, and how to accomplish it. So far, the pictures that he's posted make me think that he's not really trying, or that he doesn't understand what it takes to make processional UI. I mean, seriously, "lady gaga is gay" is the last thing I want to see when choosing an admin mod. [editline]02:50PM[/editline] Also, encouraging him to to design something that no one will ever use simply makes him oblivious to what it really takes to code an admin mod.

[QUOTE=Gbps;19356125]I mean, seriously, "lady gaga is gay" is the last thing I want to see when choosing an admin mod.[/QUOTE] What does lady gaga have to do with an admin mod? I just wrote what was on my mind to show the format of the rules. [editline]05:49PM[/editline] So instead of hating on the scoreboard, can I get some ideas for the admin mod itself? So far I got fully customizable groups. I'm also gonna add a +USE type of thing so you can press E on players and be able to physgun freeze players. I've got a ton of ideas so far to make this unique, I need feature ideas.

[QUOTE=PC Camp;19358608]What does lady gaga have to do with an admin mod? I just wrote what was on my mind to show the format of the rules.[/QUOTE] I think that was the point.
