April 23, 2008 at 16:37Amazing Interfaces
Today there will be no research, conclusions, or sewer. Today we will admire the pictures, discuss their appropriateness. To decide whether to do such tricked out (or vice versa - too simple interfaces).
These are mainly found on flash sites, which are usually created by outstanding people, but not always with the makings of ucd specialists. Although in this fraternity VERY curious specimens of human thought are often found.
In order not to climb all sorts of nooks and crannies of the global network, I went to google the foreign Internet for our current topic. From what I found, I have compiled a list, in my opinion, of the most interesting and recent GUIs on flash. Fresh Flash GUI, yes.
How did I evaluate all this diversity?
• Nontriviality of the loaderbar (loader).
• The unusual method of navigation on the main page.
• Interesting graphic effects.
• Nontriviality of the first screen (input \ language selection, etc.)
• Freedom of choice - html or flash.
• The degree of convenience of the above items. Of course in my opinion.
1. Freelancer Stephane Guillot
The first on the list I present the site is truly impressive made. It is shown in the form of Stefan’s house, on which we walk in his role, look in the mailboxes, read the biography in clothes, look at the portfolio in the form of all kinds of dandies on the desktop (on an ordinary, wooden). In general, we walk around his house, poking his nose wherever needed. I was especially impressed by the musical effects, and the character’s tricks when returning to the main page - believe me, there is something to giggle over.
PS: also look in the "profile" - this is a table with pieces of paper - laugh. LOADBAR: A cute hurricane. Navigation: very unusual and beautiful. Effects: impressive. Initial Screen: None. Choice: also not. Convenience:
on high. I have never found it difficult.
2. Wyse
This site impresses not with effects, not with its unusualness, but with its very style - the site is made with good taste, and this is evident in everything. Unfortunately, he impressed me not so much as Stefan’s site, but also made soundly. Unusual navigation on the main page using the mouse (spinning, spinning), click on the model, look at the information, and beautiful girls in beautiful clothes. LOADBAR: Very simple, and tasty. Navigation: unusual, but uncomfortable. Effects: practically absent, or almost imperceptible. The first screen: it is not. Choice: not either. Continuous dictatorship. Convenience:
the site causes some difficulties, because quite complicated navigation, in my opinion.
3. Nagaoka Institute of Design
The site of the design institute should be impressive. And this site is proud to cope with the task entrusted to it - non-trivial navigation, an unusual way of providing information, and delicious graphics of students - what else is needed for complete happiness? LOADBAR: Unusual in that it explains the method of navigating the site, but not enough information about the loading process, which is depressing. Navigation: unusual. It is made in the form of two roulettes, and the associative series between them is student work. Conveniently. Effects: they are few, and most importantly, they are in place, which pleases. The first screen: it is not. Selection:
also no.
Convenience: undeniably comfortable, but unusual. Learning is not necessary.
4. UNIQLO
A somewhat unusual site, according to a modeling agency, with quite ordinary clothes. Not even very expensive. Navigating the site is very unpleasant, due to the special horizontal scroll, and the absence of any information about the product - just a picture. But in the pictures, beautiful girls are a plus :) LOADBAR: in fact, it is not. Only the inscription "loading". Navigation: usually in places, but not very in places. Introduces the confusion in the mind. Inconveniently. Effects: no effects at all. The first screen: is, but with a minimum of information. Choice: no. 5. Instinct
Our guys are not asleep, and may well give odds to many flashers abroad. In general, only one obsession comes to mind - what are the guys from Park Studio smoking, and where can I buy such rubbish? LOADBAR: made in the form of beautiful speedometers with an eye. Navigation: very unusual - we have to throw things into the "thresher", and we are shown information about the work. Interesting, but somewhat unusual. Effects: A bunch of effects, especially animated ones. In place. First screen: yes. Choice: no. Convenience: somewhat inconvenient, but grabbing the idea is not difficult. 6. Julie Bayard
This girl is an extremely talented clothing designer, photographer, and graphic artist. Great ideas and thoughts on this site are not a problem, but a rule. LOADBAR: made in the form of gradually loading work with movement to the left. Very unusual. Navigation: intuitive, and quite adequate in such a site. Effects: there are few of them, and everything is “in the subject”. First screen: no. Choice: not either. Convenience: quite convenient. 7. Johnny Slack A very stylish and fashionable designer whose work is exciting and the portfolio is simply impressive. Everything is so cute, and in their places, that I want to click on all the links, and see all the work. LOADBAR:
made in the form of a loading circle. It is quite adequate.
Navigation: everything is in place, everything is in place.
Effects: quite a bit.
First screen: no.
Choice: not either.
Convenience: very, and very convenient.
8. Created 201 Studios
The site is made in the form of a “glamorous” cube, the sides of which are sections. The whole site is covered with patterns, cute ornaments in the form of a studio logo. Their work is impressive, and customers all the more. LOADBAR: Present, with a rather curious interpretation. Navigation: quite intuitive. Effects: there are few graphic effects, I would not say that they are “out of place” The first screen:
there is.
Choice: no.
Convenience: somewhat inconvenient, due to the fact that navigation does not stand out from the overall composition.
9. Neostream
An unusual site for people with sadistic inclinations who like to beat an obscure creature (in my opinion a cat with three ears) with a mouse cursor (always dreamed), and burn the poor guy by clicking on the links. LOADBAR: on hand, quite intuitive. Navigation: good, no frills, though there are a few drawbacks. Among them, an incomprehensible menu. Effects: Graphic effects are used as animations of the creature and our bullying. First screen: yes. Choice: no. Convenience:
you can’t figure it out without 100 grams.
10. WhiteVoid
The site is made in the form of an incomprehensible box (book?) With blue leaflets on which there is information. Flash uses a variety of 3d effects, which are controlled using our precious mouse already. LOADBAR: Available, but not completely intuitive. Navigation: strange, I would say uncomfortable. 3d did not benefit. Effects: 3D. First screen: no. Choice: no. Convenience: not either. That's all, dear habraytchiteli. PS: carming each other is good. We will be kind! :) (I feed all commentators :))
