Thanks for sharing. One can clearly see
* the "I like last.fm" moment,
* the "let's make the content bigger" moment,
* the "actually I prefer Facebook" moment,
* the "ehi, Soundcloud is cool after all" moment,
* finally the "maybe I found my identity" moment.
- duiker101 14y agoThere is also the "let's jump on the Metro UI train". Which is the current style. But I preferred some of the screenshots to the actual result.
- nwienert 14y agoI too liked the gradiented look a lot, but I'll say having spent a ton of time with the site I love a current look so much more for a music site. Though rather than jumping on some train there was actually quite a few steps that brought me there. I tried a lot of things, but honestly it's just easier and cleaner to strip details when they are unnecessary, and I added some twists on it (I like having the flat bevel on the buttons). Just thought I'd note that the influences often came from multiple not-obvious places and decisions, or even, maybe, just occasionally, perhaps, from me!
- nwienert 14y agoThanks! It's was interesting to see how a 3rd party view made different connections, especially as some of your correlations never crossed my mind. Notably, the red header was a short-term random color test (I tried tons). The timeline was actually inspired by a dribbble shot I ran across for mac app. Souncloud certainly had minor influences, I do love waveforms :P (not sure what the "moment" was though). EDIT: You did forget the Rdio phase :). I do love their UI. Unfortunately I couldn't find a way to get the cover look right with the complex titles and art I often deal with.
