    We finally have a graphics designer making some nice colour C-Touch themes for us. These will be available with the next release of PICED. Samples of the first two themes are attached. What do you think ?

    Themes

    I agree the first one is nice, not sure about the checker plate background, makes it a bit industrial.

    The second is a bit weak as far as color goes, might be better with some bolder colors. It's great to have more themes / templates though, good stuff.

    Sorry guys, I'm only being honest.

    The first one is a little to radical for some clients ...

    The Second, just looks too bland.

    Some of the Themes coming out with the new Crestron screens, look kick ass, check them out.

    Improve the Graphics Tools

    If you guys do have a graphics designer on board, maybe he/she can help in other ways.

    -Introducing more flexiable graphical tools(e.g. Skew, Rotation etc..).
    -Support for more graphic file extensions.
    -True transperancy modes.

    and, please please please

    -support for Flash

    Then we can pump out some real kick ass Touch Screens, and leave the competitors for dead.

    yes I have to say that I agree with richy, the first one looks ok, but is to wild for many users, and I also think I would get tirerd of using it after a few days,

    the second one is realy plain, it?s ok but nothing great.

    check out http://www.cinemaronline.com/

    they have some very nice thems, I have to pay for them but they look good, I am using there product Main Lobby, on the same touch screen as Home Gate, and with a few trick have goten them to look almost idendical.

    None of these things have anything to do with a graphics designer. They all need a software engineer. Luckily we are down to around 800 things on the to do list, so we should get around to these any time now... :(

    Yes, I understand, but a graphics designer can guide a programer on how this is to be done correctly, I'm refering to the end result.
