Design Rant.

[DarkEnergy]

I was Skype messaging my friend (Gabe) and I kind of lost it when I started getting into how badly designed some things are (In my opinion.) What are your opinions on some designs?

[8:44:44 PM] Nathan Clark: I'm going to google "what to do on an android tablet" because I'm running out of ideas lol

[8:45:07 PM] Gabe: Yeah I did that a while ago.

[8:45:17 PM] Gabe: For me I just did everything I would normally do on my laptop

[8:45:36 PM] Gabe: But there were somethings that I couldn't do. Like download music on it and port it to my iphone.

[8:45:48 PM] Gabe: Or you know, have youtube play in the background.

[8:45:57 PM] Nathan Clark: See, I can't do that. I can't multitask with 20 tabs open while listening to shit and playing games at the same time on android

[8:46:11 PM] Nathan Clark: Well true, I can listen to youtube in the background

[8:46:52 PM] Nathan Clark: And I hate when the keyboard is covering the box you're typing in and you can't do anything about it

[8:47:00 PM] Gabe:

[8:47:29 PM | Edited 8:47:33 PM] Nathan Clark: And most things I type on, on the internet has input lag

[8:48:16 PM] Nathan Clark: I also hate that I have to scroll waaaay down the recommended videos when watching one just to get to the comments

[8:48:27 PM | Edited 8:48:31 PM] Nathan Clark: I need to be a re-designer or something

[8:48:42 PM] Gabe: Yeah I feel you.

[8:48:50 PM] Nathan Clark: I should make a 20 page list

[8:49:07 PM] Gabe: of?

[8:49:14 PM] Nathan Clark: things I want fixed

[8:49:21 PM] Nathan Clark: stupid design flaws

[8:51:35 PM] Nathan Clark: not only does adobe reader have an ugly design but I think I just broke it

[8:51:57 PM] Gabe: You manage to break everything.

[8:52:27 PM] Nathan Clark: I can't minimize it or move the window. The whole top is missing

[8:52:28 PM] Nathan Clark: http://gyazo.com/c2cd1183292bebcf77be5d1b2f068358

[8:52:56 PM] Gabe: We seem to be doing the same thing basically.

[8:52:57 PM] Nathan Clark: And just look at the design of those ugly icons

[8:53:07 PM] Gabe: I'm also copying down the answers.

[8:53:16 PM] Nathan Clark: And that scroll bar is SOO windows xp

[8:53:27 PM] Nathan Clark: At least google chrome knows what's up

[8:53:33 PM] Gabe: Just download the file in chrome and when it does download click the file within chrome and it will open up in chrome

[8:53:34 PM] Gabe: oh

[8:53:40 PM] Gabe: You already know about that okay.

[8:54:01 PM] Nathan Clark: Oh, I know but I had downloaded mine a couple days ago

[8:54:11 PM] Nathan Clark: so it's not open in chrome

[8:54:21 PM] Gabe: Ah.

[8:55:32 PM] Nathan Clark: Maybe it's just me but skype's home section is useless. Know one knows it's there and no one uses it much. It's just there...haunting your dreams..always looking at you....always there......at the corner of your.....eye

[8:56:16 PM] Nathan Clark: Good thing amazon.com got a UI improvement

[8:56:57 PM] Nathan Clark: even though it was ugly before, it was at least useful ugly. That's the only reason I will ever like ugly. If it's USEFUL ugly.

[8:57:37 PM] Nathan Clark: Have you ever noticed how many pixels are in the microsoft word "W" icon. I could see them a mile away

[8:58:27 PM | Edited 8:58:31 PM] Nathan Clark: Hey that made me think of something. Microsoft word. It doesn't really update. You get the version you pay for and that's it

[8:58:51 PM] Nathan Clark: Kind of a good thing because they fucked up the latest version I think

[8:59:18 PM] Nathan Clark: Oh, just realized you're on Windows 8. Things might look different for you

[8:59:59 PM] Nathan Clark: And THIS is the defintion of ugly. http://static10.okazii.ro/poze/samsung-galaxy-s5/New_samsung_galaxy_s5_1.png

[9:00:57 PM] Nathan Clark: Anything with a smooth shiny plastic and rounded edges I don't like

[9:01:13 PM] Nathan Clark: And that silver boarder is horrible

[9:01:28 PM] Gabe: Yeah those bezels are pretty nasty.

[9:03:31 PM] Nathan Clark: yahoo.com is the ugliest website on earth. I mean that's one ugly purple, and I LIKE purple. To me, 80% of the website is just one giant advertisement how it's set up. And the TOP BAR. Look at how thin and ugly it is! http://gyazo.com/84ba1e49c25d185060512d5b924c8ee3

[9:04:07 PM | Edited 9:04:08 PM] Nathan Clark: I'm going to calm down and study math
