1st unbunch your panties son :D

*********************WARNING*******************************************************************************************

This post contains comments like the above they are intended to be both disparaging, condescending, and mildly amusing ....... you have been warned :D

*snigger*

************************************************************************************************************************

So you obviously took time to get a full overview prior to attacking me :rolleyes:

There was nothing wrong with my tone son :D

It was the result of just having read a bunch of over excited, thoughtless, this-weeks-favoured-youtube-tech demo-fanboy nonsense, with hardly anyone pointing out the obvious visual shortcomings of what was shown in the vid or any of the (to anyone with a clue) obvious resource issues. My post contained a certain amount of irritation and frustration ....... which am quite happy to share with others ....... it also contained a certain amount of humour which maybe you missed somehow :rolleyes:

I don't feel the need to constantly add (IMHO though i often do) to every statement i make as the concept of 'opinion' seems fairly implicit in the concept of a forum discussion. Obviously you do have issue with my opinion as you seem to be attempting to debunk it, rather badly, but attempting all the same :rolleyes:

At all times i pretty carefully outlined in detail what i objected too or had reservation about, in every post i made, once again maybe you missed that and your the one who needs to go and reread the full thread.

Neither do I feel obligated to deliver a long detailed list of remedies to someone else aesthetic mistakes on a forum ........ generally i get PAID for doing that kind of thing, so have little interest in doing it on a forum over a tech demo.

You just outta Uni or something because you seem to have that current ex-poly/New Uni, brain washed 'Critical relativism' attitude where everyones opinions are assumed to have equal value regardless of the topic. Its a nice cuddly idea easily swallowed by kids without enough experience to have a clue but its a flawed concept.

ie: My opinion on car electrics is pretty worthless, but my m8 Brians opinion on car electronics is GODLIKE. However Brians opinion isn't worth much on Computers, graphics, photography, or science .... presume you can infer the rest yourself :rolleyes:

Not very interested in your opinion on constructive comments and thought provoking as i suspect from the content of your post your not all that experienced at debating tech issues. Plus you apparently have ice sculpture fragile sensibilities and get butt hurt and indignantly offended rather easily.

Am made of slightly sterner stuff :D

I am not sorry personally, but i do regret that it appears your sensibilities are so paper thin that you can't handle a strong opinion (even when it is backed up by details). I am used to discussing issues with knowledgeable adults, and a certain amount of condescending humour is what i consider both entertaining and normal, especially on a forum. if you can't cope with that i strongly suggest ....... internet forums are not for you, maybe 'self esteem therapy would be better, thats all positive msgs :D

Confrontation IMHO is far from needless, if you believe so whats your post intended to achieve ????? :rolleyes:

Can't help the BIG suspicion, that you really do have an issue with my opinion, got quite butt hurt over it (as you think the UI mod is iPhone cool) and all the rest is just spurious attempts at intellectualizing your feelings :D

So according to your 'big book on debating' its a violation of debating to open up other issues for discussion as a debate evolves ????? :D :rolleyes:

Try to at least think about what your typing m8.

I focused on the visual in my 1st post, that was the general direction of the thread.

I brought up the resource issue later ......... as non of the teenage fanboys had even mentioned it, and it seem more than tangentially relevant.

You seem to misunderstand the purpose of debate, the purpose IS to gain the upper hand by delivering well formulated arguments, or facts, that intellectually demolish your detractors !!!! :D

Am interested in any arguments or factual info you have to suggest that more (massive amounts more) of animations in an Android OS will not impact at least UI performance, possibly general performance too.

Ok here is where it starts to go BADLY wrong for your argument ........ as everyone with a development or just good IT knowledge. Can easily predict that that UI shown is defo resources intensive.

Your comment shows you lack fundamental knowledge. All activity on a system requires resources, the more non productive processes running the more resources ....... see that simple.

Actually i think i was the 1st to mention that the anims could almost certainly be disabled :rolleyes:

That still doesn't stop them from being fugly though :D

I also seem to remember mentioning that most if not all the fugly elements would be very easy to alter to more aesthetically pleasing choices :rolleyes:

Once again it sounds like you don't quite understand its not a matter of merely running it. Its a matter of not dumping a slightly pointless resource hog on your handheld that potentially degrades the entire performance or at least the UI.

My only point was to point out both the obvious and potential pifalls of the mod ( as some of us have seen this kind of thing on various platforms over the years). Am sorry this distressed you so much.

Oh yeah by the way you have an open floor on this as i WILL not waste any more time talking sense to the clueless ....... so will not respond to any further posts from you on this topic :D

Knock yourself out m8 :rolleyes:

Not sure anyone is suggesting its attempt at trickery, that would be slightly ridiculous.

But projects like this disappear without a trace all the time after a block rocking youtube début, due the unavoidable pressures and real world difficulties of actually delivering the product.
