Exactly one months ago, I annouced the beta test for the ReactOS
Compatibility Database:
http://www.reactos.org/xhtml/en/news_page_18.htmlhttp://www.reactos.org/support/
We have currently 71 categories and 99 applications/drivers in the database.
I got some feedback from users. This lead to several interface
improvements. For example, some user commented that the submit process
is to confusing. It was confusing, well let say the submit pages were
too overloaded.
I tried with several updates to improve th interface and especially
the submit pages step by step.
As of today, the latest update bring a complete redesigned submit
process, a wizard like look&feel which looks and interact similar to
Wizard '97 / Vista (from the Win32 world) and has a lot of usability
improvements.
It has many user interacting feedback included so that the user will
see instantly if he e.g. inputted an invalid value. The submit pages
are using ajax, dhtml (=> javascript).
I want to invite you to visit the ReactOS Compatibility Database:
http://www.reactos.org/support/
Feedback is welcome, please use the mailing list and/or the website
sub-forum (http://www.reactos.org/forum/viewforum.php?f=18) to write
replies.

Whatever. I've had it having to justify my every breath in here. I'm
stepping down as UIC and icon designer.
Fireball, you can close my SVN account. It seems some people are
thinking we didn't lose enough developers from the Hartmut drama. I am
officially fed up with everyone's fucking around and bitching. The
person I expected it from the least is GreatLord.

How am I supposed to impartially solve an issue I am personally
involved in? If people aren't willing to accept my condition of
"discuss with me first", then I don't know what I should do.

Until you manage to get that wonky off-balance thing you prefer to be
accepted as the official logo, whether it is ugly or not is not
relevant. There is a procedure for changing established things. Your
method of just going ahead and changing things without asking is not
only rude but wrong. If you want to change things, you will have to go
through me first. If you have a problem with me, you have a problem
with changing things. So I suggest you consider your options.

It's a bloody orb with wisps (rings) around it. Complex my eye.
> The official Windows logo isn't used on the start button. A neater version
is used in the same way.
A "neater version". You mean the shadow? I have employed a similar way
to make the icon clear at 16x16:

As you can see, both with Windows and with ReactOS, it's practically
the same thing. I'm beginning to get the idea you are making arguments
up for the sake of having arguments in your offence.

It's as much a placeholder as the "original" Everaldo icons were.

GreatLord, there *IS* no new logo. The icon I re-committed has been in
ReactOS since r14357. That's March 27th 2005. Nobody objected back
then, yet now there's a fuss? Please mind your own business if you
don't know exactly what's going on. Thanks.

I highly disagree with the fact that everyone must go through you. If we
initiated a kernel coordinator, do you also suggest that all kernel work
must be approved by them too?
Taking into account the smarmy comment which went along with the change,
it was my impression you changed it back just to try and annoy me.
Many of the developers I have spoken to agree that the original icon is
better. Nobody seems to want to say anything to you for fear of
upsetting you though. Great!

I have just considered my options. I choose to stop work on the UI as of
now.
The fact that you've tried to alienate me many times, and now in public
seals the fact that we can't work together.
I was the only person interested in working on the UI, and you managed
to take the fun out of it for me, are you sure you are the right man for
the job? I tend to think not.

Hi
The new logo se does not look like reactos any longer
it is to dark and pixel, the balas and constrast in the new
logo is bad, it does not match at all, and it look not prof
have made it. more like a childer. So please revert
the new logo and keep, the old one.
If u look in ros it does not match the constrast or
any think. A logo should not be pixel or constat
does not match. That is exacly in the new logo
u have done MF.
I know it is alot people reactos user and
devloper dislike the new logo.
if u do not revert it, (restore to the old one)
I will do it this weekend.
