Add Lock screen customization to Decor8
Some features for the start screen
-transparent tiles (only icon is visible)
-different tile animation (like the different animation scrolling IOS users can choose from when jailbroken)
-ability to choose from
-snapping pages
-staircase tile animation
-Unlimited scrolling (loops tiles)
-circle animation (make it appear as tiles are rotating in a circle)
-could be in conjunction with Unlimited scrolling
-give support for 360 panorama photos to work with this animation
-tile glows or enlarges when mouse hovers over it
-different open animations when tapping/clicking on tile
-Add the ability to select videos as your start screen background
These features could go with the lockscreen if support is added to Decor8
-have an animation overlay (wherever you touch it shows an animation)
-Alot like Androids live wallpaper (but for windows 8 lockscreen)
-water effects
-fire effects
-distortion effects
-tap on a swimming fish and it swims quickly away, follows finger, etc.
So far the only company that seems to come close to delivering what the consumers want are a lot of the small companies like stardock....
it seems as though once the companies get big, they begin to think they know what consumers want and not the actual consumers.
they say they listen to the customers, and the customer is always right... but they don't deliver what the customer always wants...
Windows 8 phone constantly markets how it can characterize your personality, but yet doesn't carry that same attitude to windows 8?
i want to be able to express who i am with interactive lockscreens, not only live but interactive tiles and the ability to keep it simple or totally customize the look and functionality of my windows PC.
Android is a big step in the consumers direction, but the only way to achieve such personality is to bloat your android OS with third party apps that slow down your phone, making any non dual or quad core phone useless when you want customize it to your hearts content.
i like decor8 now, but if you guys could some how manage to get half of the features above into it... i will love it! And i am currently studying to become a computer engineer so i will know C++ programming within the next year or two if you guys are hiring
... these are just some of the ideas i have ... i can come up with a lot more...
