Titoist Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 I just visited the site less than 5min ago and noticed that the title header with all the menus was changed. It has a more Vista feel to it now. Anyone else notice this? Edit: Thanks Jan for image link to Macrumors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Paul Ferson Veteran Posted January 26, 2011 Veteran Share Posted January 26, 2011 It seems more like the little pop-up windows you can make display in Snow Leopard. I'm not sure how to properly describe them but you can use them to make information about folders and such pop-up. Perhaps Apple is making that feature more heavily integrated into their future designs or something? I'm not entirely sure I like it, but I don't visit Apple's site that often so it should be of no concern to me. I preferred the gray color that they used previously.

0 Geoffrey B. Veteran Posted January 26, 2011 Veteran Share Posted January 26, 2011 yeah i did not think vista at all, i though snow leopard. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 BoneyardBrew Member Posted January 26, 2011 Member Share Posted January 26, 2011 I don't think it's bad by any means, but I do like all of the animations. :) I'm not sure why they've always designed their hover states to be darker than the default, which is the only think I really disagree with. Seems a bit harsh to be an Apple design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Jan Veteran Posted January 26, 2011 Veteran Share Posted January 26, 2011 Apple made some slight design changes to their website tonight, with a new dark navigation bar, as well as spring loaded and slide-in animations for products. The new design resulted in several hours of downtime for the Apple online store. Some last minute part numbers had suggested the long awaited white iPhone may have been making an appearance, but that was not the case. The online store has adopted the new darker navigation bar, but there are no signs of new products. Source Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Titoist Posted January 26, 2011 Author Share Posted January 26, 2011 Well I chose Vista cause the taskbar had the same colour scheme. Snow Leopard had a more whitish glass look. iOS look, yeah I agree with that one too. I like it but I also liked the grey look too. Is it possible that this new look could be a forerunner to changing the look of Macs? Like a more darker aluminium finish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Chasethebase Reporter Posted January 26, 2011 Reporter Share Posted January 26, 2011 There are more if you would like me to dig them up... It's glossy, but not the same type of gloss. I would say it's less like the taskbar style of Vista but more like the HUD window borders that OS X uses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 norseman Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 There are more if you would like me to dig them up... People fail to realize iOS is not glossy. Maybe their right-click now has some gloss in SL but wake up ppl! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Pam14160 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Things change. This new look is nice and looks good. It is time for a change in the UI of the Mac and the Apple's Internet Site. Come people it is time for a change after ten years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Stetson Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 People fail to realize iOS is not glossy. Maybe their right-click now has some gloss in SL but wake up ppl! iOS seems pretty glossy to me. Almost all toolbars have the slight "horizon line" reflection effect applied, like Apple's new website navigation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 PyX Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Definitely Snow-Leopard-esque and iOS-esque. It enters the family of right clicking in the Dock, the HUD interfaces, Pixelmator, QuickTime X, ... Personally, I love the animations more than anything on their site. It definitely looks good and I haven?t seen this anywhere yet. But the gray menu that was there before had the perfect color IMO. This is seems to dark, a bit out of place.
