fspot retouch.
fspot comm.
Hello Stephane,
I’m a graphic designer in New York looking to assist with the visual aspect of fspot. I’m less of a coder than the usual fspot contributor, but hopefully I can still be of some use. I’m attaching some ideas I’ve had regarding the interface and would love to know what you think and if you feel they’d be worth sharing with the larger community.
Thanks in advance + great work on the app!

[OSD eavesdroppers: below are two updates to what was presented last week - other screenshots would be included but had no major changes.]
[I’m still not crazy about the circle for navigation on the timeline… maybe I should just slim down their original “square loupe”… I prefer my less clunky representation of “photo presence” data though]
[The crop tool has a a pop-up, shown here, with aspect ratio functionality]
[PS: they’ve released a new version this morning, so I’ll need to compare notes with my suggestions once I manage to get it running]

Here’s an update to the browse view, followed by a few before/after states. This includes some functionality for shared libraries as requested in a user scenario posted to the fspot mailing list (basically, two users with separate accounts want to be able to tag and edit the same photos from within their respective accounts, but have the changes propagate/apply to both); I wonder if each user having a “shared with” option (to associate an image with multiple libraries) would be a better idea (or helpful to addition to what’s already here). Obviously this is a work in progress, so I’m curious to hear what everyone thinks, particularly about how best to integrate info on the timeline about how many photos exist on a given day (something missing from my current version). Also, since I will not have my computer with me today, here are Aperture and Lightroom screenshots.

f-spot
I’m planning to redesign the interface for f-spot, which is an open source photo management app for Linux (GNOME). It’s fairly capable (think speedier iPhoto), but not terribly attractive. You can check some screenshots of it (in all their default glory) here and here.
