GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 762071
'you're ready to go' needs a facelift
Last modified: 2016-02-16 13:40:09 UTC
Created attachment 321240 [details] cute stencil that doens't quite fit in. The final step of initial set up features a graphic that seems out of place. While cute, it doesnt quite fit in the rest of the visual style, especially the blank initial state of the apps. Allan has created a mockup of a viable last step here -- https://raw.github.com/gnome-design-team/gnome-mockups/master/initial-setup/aday/10-completed.png
The check mark asset is already available here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gnome-design-team/gnome-mockups/master/initial-setup/aday/assets/check-mark.png We can provide a different size if needed.
Created attachment 321256 [details] [review] summary: provide a concistent visual - provide a common 'empty' state that is inviting yet consistent with what the other apps do. Sadly this is completely untested as I don't know how to do that :/

I've included the asset as an SVG with slightly larger texture that should cope with HiDPI better. Should probably look into doing that for all the assets.
Heh, it's funny. I much prefer the cutesy last page, at least for a consumer product, because it's a tiny bit of joy in an otherwise boring interface. Endless has wanted an initial setup experience that doesn't feel much like filling in paperwork for a little while (it's one of the biggest bits of user feedback we get -- users are exhausted by the initial setup), and this feels like a bit of a step backwards.

The new graphic is a much closer fit to the visuals used elsewhere in Endless, so I find it surprising that you're objecting to it. > Endless has wanted an initial setup experience that doesn't feel much like > filling in paperwork for a little while (it's one of the biggest bits of > user feedback we get -- users are exhausted by the initial setup), and this > feels like a bit of a step backwards. I honestly don't think that the choice of final graphic will have a lot of impact here.
I'm not really objecting to it, just pointing it out. We don't have that much visual consistency -- given a more cutesy image, vs. one that "fits our brand", we've chosen to prefer the cutesy variant, simply to hope the user gets a tiny bit more joy out of it.
