Graphic Interface

I’ve been tweaking and creating the interface for a couple of weeks now, pretty much the main layout was designed and completed a week ago, but I had to change little things in order to make most of the team happy with the interface, its quite tricky since everyone has different opinions and no one is really wrong, so I had to change button or css styles a couple of times (at least) to make the interface what it is now.

Even though it may look simple a look of time was invested on details and functionality, we also wanted it to look simple and sleek since we are not trying to sell anything to anyone or trying to make people to come back, etc. the site is all about functionality and that was our main concern all along the way.

The tools used for the creation of the site were the Adobe Creative Suite for images and some css editing (the rest of it was made using TextWrangler), the site was mainly tested on Chrome and Firefox, but it was quite tricky to use tools that text the xhtml (to avoid tag soups) since we were using some django code here and there, but overall the site had no problems running in these two browsers.
