Feedback on these designs...April 13, 2006 |

We're working on improving date navigation. We'd like to get your Click on the Design to see them full screen. CommentsApril 13, 2006 10:10 PM

I would combine them: use the tabbed interface (that is so from this time), but use in addition to the (abbreviated) day name also the day from the date, that is really easy while navigating. April 13, 2006 10:19 PM
I think the second option it's more clear (and more good looking) but the first really is more informative. I've showed the screens to my wife If you need anything else, just let me know -- I'm really happy to help you guys :) Thanks April 13, 2006 10:20 PM
Cool! I find the second one a little easier to read read, because the tabs make it clear that the display below is tied to the highlighted date. I think the physical metaphor makes that a bit clearer, whereas it takes a slightly larger jump of logic with the first design.

Personally I like timesheet1. I see the value of the popping tab view (could be better for colorblind people) but it looks a little old fashioned...perhaps with some tuning on the look I could be swayed to timesheet2.gif's idea. April 13, 2006 11:15 PM
I think I like the second version better, though it would be nice to see them both with some of the surrounding context. The tabs make it very clear what you are looking at. If you end up going with the first one, to me, the number part looks to much like a year rather than a day. Not quite sure how to change it, maybe like "Thursday the 1st" would work better.

Glad to help!
I love how you're showing the hours next to each day! That's beautiful! I love the simple week to week navigation, too, not to mention the easy day to day navigation! Wonderful!
I think I like the timesheet1.gif design better. Doing the tab design for the days would be a little confusing - different tabs usually mean
different categories, not different days. So the first one works better, with one small suggestion. Maybe change the orange highlight from square to rounded corners, like you have it for the main categories (time sheet, reports, projects, etc.)
Hope this helps!
