Keito Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 are you intending to make it compatible to Patchou's Plus! or build in some of it's features by yourself or just don't... because I think stuff like chatlogging (in txt files) and maybe so "what are you listening to" pluging would be nice / useful :) *trying to help out :p* Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/284354-gmessenger/page/6/#findComment-585463158 Share on other sites More sharing options...

habonator Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 and for those of you who have seen the new msn (released 10 mins ago) you will see that its UI is SERIOUSLY over cluttered now, they are trying to cram everything in one place which is what we are NOT doing.and for the guy who is ranting about that concept art that was requested to be removed ages ago: my inspiration is ipod. 585460649[/snapback] Inspiration is one thing, copying is another. Oh come on. Even the mail icon is exacly the same like in the concept screens. (Attachment will be removed in a while.)

habonator Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 why not :D 585463193[/snapback] Because its plagiarism and simply poor, very poor to publish a stolen style as your own.

DayleRees Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 for gmail, roffle i hope they offer to buy it lol.I VILL BE ZEE RICH! BWAHAHAHAH 585463144[/snapback] lol i vill be ze rich, wheres your source code :p heh jus kidding. Guys please DONT include the letter G in logos. The name is not going to stay as GMessenger. I'd like to call it Ares but i just did a google (is my friend) and its taken by some p2p :( , so thats out of the question. habonator - I'm sorry if its offended you, but this design is only for the BETA, as it would seem pointless to put a fully redrawn design to a project that is so uncertain at the moment, coding a messenger is a big deal, im not claiming to be superman, for from it its just that I still have a long way to go. As with the name change / logo change etc, there will be a theme change. The BETA however will most likely use that design. I'm considering emailing microsoft to ask if 'concepts of their Wave 11 designs are true because im considering using the same style for some of my projects' then if they say no, which microsoft like to do a lot to hide stuff they cant argue with using a milk'ish' design, and if they say yes, then we know for certain its coming :) Again habonator im sorry that you are unhappy with the current theme, I hope this wont effect your enjoyment of the application when (if) i ever get it to a releasable state, thank you for constructive criticism.

Shetland Posted February 13, 2005 Author Share Posted February 13, 2005 (edited) My work was created entirely from scratch, though the wave-11 design WAS an insipration, NOTHING was ripped. if the people want it, i will change my entire design, made from scratch again, but with NO refrences.

DayleRees Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 A name has been decided upon, just now. As a few of u might know lately i have been losing sleep over the SSL connections, which are used to authenticate your MSN Messenger account. The server to do this is called nexus.passport.com ( just a little nickname... like how i call my pc xenox ) The new name for this messenger will be....

KiHu Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 I Like The Name....=) the icon that would most relate would be the Nexus building in starcraft:P but that would ruin the whole thing i think..

Foodie Monster Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 "Nexus"? Yuck. I hate those Matrix-Badass-Code-L337 names... so not-stylish... GHL, I'd love it if you kept on the Wave-11 Look & Feel. Because I think it's a brilliant design in the first place, and I really doubt that Microsoft will release that version of their Wave technology any time soon...

Shetland Posted February 13, 2005 Author Share Posted February 13, 2005 thanks myuu, I dont want to be classed as a thief, I did make graphics, though my inspiration is obvious, though an ipod is a big inspiration, its all up to you guys to be honest, unless tammy savage sues us lol. this is non-profit stuff though.
