Sujith, from a gentle answer is not a cuestion if you are a developer or a
designer but what I see, you are evidently just a designer, not that bad
but just a not well documented or involved with the feelling of this
project like Haiku is right now. You have not done right the "User
Research" [1].
Maybe I can tell you on behalve of many or not all [2
<http://clasquin-johnson.co.za/michel/haiku/blog/haiku-icons-for-the-artisti.html>]
the core entuthiast and colaborators on Haiku, we appreciate your effort
and good will but you dont get that "look and feel" even nearley a mockup
of the UI Interface from BeOS and now Haiku thats a "remake" of BeOS look
and feel (look at the UI interface and icons guidelines on the website[3
<https://www.haiku-os.org/files/CreatingUIsusingtheLayoutAPI.pdf>][4
<https://www.haiku-os.org/development/icon-guidelines>] ) until we get at
R1 stage we sitck with that, maybe until you can get wet your hands and
eyes with that info and knowlegde, like any good designer does, before pull
off all that creativity with a certainly good base guidelines.
Like Luposian pointed out maybe your design is based on a "Internet
Appliance" look and feel like the BeIA intent to be on the lates 90's,
ahead of it's time of course, or like Android a "Internet Appliance"
Operative System does for several years now on many devices like
smartphones, tablets and SmartTVs ( with a evident progressive evolution
until Material Design). Right now your design may look like a rip off of
Remix OS [5] but with anything related with Haiku Design.
Before you feel sad again... there are many options you can contribute to
the Haiku project as a designer but on a different perspective looking
forward to the Glass Elevator Project [6] for discussing and documenting
ideas for future Haiku versions, R2 and beyond. There is a Recuest For
Coments (RFC) document about User Interface Design [7] you may take a look
and feel free to add your comments and better propossals taking into
account the foregoing. We must also add from the developers point of view
that there are (or not by the date of the documents) technical details
within the API [8] and the Haiku Vector Icon Format, or HVIF for short
[9][10] you may know.
With all that I said I do not want to discourage you in your
enthusiasm but redirect to a more accurate view of what is needed and
maybe
even you can refine your work to make a formal proposal to a task in
Google Summer of Code 2016 or Google Code-In 2017 [11] with at
least Haiku R1 and published beta ;-)
BetaMax
PD: Glenn, I "don't take for granted the things closest to your heart" as
you do, I love that real "look and feel" of BeOS had and Haiku have too
but what perhaps what you think it's a joke is only the humble point of
view of a person who does not have much idea of what was proposed.
