If you have the TMS components, the TAdvGlowButton is very nice and can
be modified to look almost any way.

Step 1:  Get high quality bitmaps for your buttons etc.  Don't use old
or nasty images.
Step 2:  Big buttons with big images AND text.  Le the users remove
the text once they are experienced.
Step 3:  Profit

Hey guys,

Just about to update one of our main apps and thinking about just
rebuilding it from the ground up, especially the gui side of it. The
original one wasn't to bad, but looking at other programs there is
some
very nice looking applications out there. Now I have the TMS
component
set and there are some very nice graphical components in there - but
I
don't want the program to be overwhelming (picture someone that finds
the transitions in a slide show app for the first time!) but also
don't
want it to look like something from windows 3.1

End of the day it comes down to the usability for the user and making
everything as easy and logical for them to use, but also want it to
look
appealing.

So what steps, guidelines, approach do you take when designing an
application.

:-)
Cheers
Nick
