Well one reason I am writing this application is that I need to design an
interface for an Interfaces course (or more exactly Computer-Human-Interaction
is the full name). It was painful to start - I did a sketch in photoshop and had
a graphics artist help me correct my ugly drawings and I think I got something
nice. At the moment I am writing prototype code to test it all and change until
I get something I would play with delight. Hope I get there :) It's a lot of
thinking and trying but it's very involving and funny !

Do a ver 1.0 interface. Build a working prototype and play against it. Play with
it and ask yourself what is working and what is not working right and why. At
least this is what I'm trying to do. At the same time I check game design books
to see if I can find good ideas.

Andrei
