The new look of ReactOS 21942

by theUser BL

Last week I have tested ReactOS build 21942. And I wondern about the ugly changes: - wrong gradient on the top of the windows. - the symbols which say, which icon on the desktop is a link and which not, is now on the right bottom, instead of the left bottom But some icon-designer have the icons so designed, that its ok, if there is something on the left bottom of the icon lost. But the icons are not so designed, that it is lost on any other place. It seems, there are now some ReactOS-developer, who don't like Windows. I would prefering it, if ReactOS looks most as possible like Windows. And if anybody wants to have its own look, that then existing options to change the look of ReactOS. Greatings theuserbl

ReactOS Compatibility Database - Beta Test

by Klemens Friedl

Exactly one months ago, I annouced the beta test for the ReactOS Compatibility Database: http://www.reactos.org/xhtml/en/news_page_18.html http://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.

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.

If people aren't willing to accept my condition of "discuss with me first", then I don't know what I should do.

(sorry for initially having accidentally sent this mail to ros-general instead of ros-dev) > The ReactOS logo is an ugly design. 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. > Also, it's far too complex to be used as a start button image and looks out of place. 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: http://img55.imageshack.us/img55/4972/startthingie3yn.png 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. > This logo is the original ReactOS start menu logo and should be kept IMO. It's as much a placeholder as the "original" Everaldo icons were. mf

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. mf

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! > 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. > 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. Ged.
