FluidPlay (your music, everywhere) - my latest project (feedback greatly appreciated)

Design could definitely use some work. The header is off since the form elements don't actually fit into it. Make the header's height bigger. Your logo is likewise nonexistent. I don't like logos that take up an entire page, but I do like them to be prominent. Color scheme: gray, white, black = bad. Especially when you're dealing with music. Make it a bit more lively. And I agree with sri, it always looks better when the form elements line up.

Make the font size bigger as well. I think you're trying to minimize the screenspace you take up (?) but I'd rather scroll than squint. Hope this helps.

2 other things:

1. I tend to be listening to music when I am browsing the web, so it was kind of disruptive to have the playlists of others automatically load when I was looking at them. Might be better if they were stopped initially and I could choose ones I might want to hear.

2. Id probably like to do / see a little more before I registered. I don't like to just register for any site I stumble upon. I like to get a sense of what I am getting into first. The more I can do, the more likely I will register.

Hope this helps.

hmmm....looks cool. so will it be possible for me to stream my itunes music with this tool?

i see your are using rails frontend. what's the fluidplay exe written in?

(btw, i always like to keep text boxes that are underneath each other (username, password, email) -- the same length. it looks better, imho)

it just occurred to me that i should probably mention that the client is windows only for now. i have it running on my mac and linux, but haven't released it yet.

i know a lot of people probably don't want to download the client, so you can take a look at the library UI by logging in as schen/1234. thanks!
