DVD/Movie Maker video card error messages are broken/wrong

Submitted by DeathSeeker on June 26, 2008 to Aesthetics

If you have an "incompatible" video card you will get an error message when opening up DVD or Movie maker. Quite a few problems with the error messages.

DVD Maker
01.) Incorrect use of title icon of error message.
02.) (more...)

DVD Maker
01.) Remove title bar icon
02.) Only minor errors lack icons; not being able to use the program isn't minor; add icon
03.) Link the entire text, not half
04.) Uses a "Close" button, not an "Ok"
(more...)

Registry Editor navigational tree interface experience differs from Windows Explorer

Submitted by DeathSeeker on June 18, 2008 to Aesthetics

The Registry Editor still uses dotted lines to show hierarchy, Windows Explorer does not.

The Registry Editor shows collapse/expand arrows when the navigation tree isn't selected. Windows Explorer hides these by default and shows them (more...)

Use the same separator/splitter and the same mouse cursor.

Remove the dotted lines.

Hide the collapse/expand arrows in Regedit unless hovered on.

Use the exact same background color; not a very slight variation.

Inconsistent search placement, icons, size, and text.

Submitted by DeathSeeker on June 13, 2008 to Aesthetics, Icons

I'll confine this to just 10 programs and a dozen problems for now.

01.) There are three different magnifying glass icons, a blue, a grey and a white one.
02.) There are two different hover effects for the magnifying glass, (more...)

A single font size and color.
Single background.
One icon and hover style.
A standard default size.
Near universal top-right/second "bar" (Explorer) placement.
