[Suggestion] Placement and colors of buttons under video. #65

Closed Uricorn closed 8 years ago

Uricorn commented 8 years ago

This suggestion is purely about design, and as such should be treated as a personal opinion.

Regarding Placement: I suggest either placing the most commonly used buttons to the left, or keeping the 'upvote' and 'downvote' symmetrical to each other since they are a "pair".

Symmetry is an important design aspect.

Colors: I think that the 'snooze' and 'join' button colors should be changed.

The 'join' button should be a more inviting and friendly color, while the 'snooze' button should be a more red or orange color.

The 'snooze' action is a bit negative at times, similar to downvoting the song. As such, it makes sense that they should be a similair color. Additionally, purple is already taken by the 'grab' button.

Examples: capture capture

I am pretty used to how it is now. The color change is nice, but I wouldn't personally move the buttons.

If they are going to be changed in any way, there will either be an option to change it to the "new style" or they will be "unlockable" and able to be reordered

No move. Maybe change colors.
