I like this idea. One option would be to use Apple's Human Interface Guidelines: <a href="http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/userexperience/conceptual/mobilehig/MobileHIG.pdf">http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/userexperience/conceptual/mobilehig/MobileHIG.pdf</a><br>
<br></p></div></div></div></div></blockquote><div>Awesome idea, though I'd rather use these <a href="http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/AppleApplications/Conceptual/Dashboard_ProgTopics/Articles/Design.html">http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/AppleApplications/Conceptual/Dashboard_ProgTopics/Articles/Design.html</a>, they are a bit simpler :), so people will rather read it. And they are optimized for small widget or morphs :) that don't have to be that constrained in their design since they are graspable in an instant anyways. :)</div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); position: static; z-index: auto; "><div id="ygrp-mlmsg" style="position:relative;"><div id="ygrp-msg" style="z-index: 1;"><div id="ygrp-text"><p>
I think looking polished is very very important. The current Self UI is already pretty good in this regard. I believe Squeak has suffered enormously from looking too much like a toy.<br>
