THE CASE FOR SIMPLICITY by kuz - 2021/02/09(Tue)14:24:00
I would like to go over some stylistic points regarding the upcoming change in software.
Now when I say "clutter" or refer to "simplicity" I dont mean the bleak, web-2.0, plain white interfaces you see on many other sites (or imageboards even) — I mean the amount of buttons,
Though it wasnt very popular in its time, from a retrospective standpoint, I find that StrawberryHeaven's general "look" is very attractive, although, the number system was not the best, I definitley think the simplistic style of StrawberryHeaven rings true more to heyuris "old-style" than the overly complicated and feature-packed heyuri we use. If I could pinpoint it, i think plain ol' wakaba looks just fine.
Im not advocating for less features per se, but I do think there are things that could be cleaned up. I think it would look nicer, as well as load faster and be easier to maintain and work with.
Let me know your thoughts about this.
