WB: How much animation is too much?

October 2, 2003 10:26:10 AM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums
Thought I'd try to make an animated skin.
So far the menu items, min/mas/close/help/force on top and system buttons are animated...

SO question. How much is too much?

Well, since you asked, I'll answer you what I think.
I like animations that are action-triggered: mouse-overs, clicks, etc.  But I don't like to have perpetual animations on my windows. It looks cool first, but I find it gets annoying after a bit, always moving in your face.

My 2 canadian cents (1.4 cents US).

I'm with paxx! Constant ones are annoying but mousovers are sweet! Lots of them would be great.

When it gets on your nerves, that's when it's too much.
