Error message that always appears in the same place While I understand the desire to cut down on the amount of work you have to do when building the site - what development project doesn't have a tight timeframe? - this kind of shortcut seems like a bad idea to me. Broadly speaking, trading worse UX for faster development is seldom a good idea. |

Send wireframes before a demonstration? +1 - if you let people make up their own story ahead of time, they're unlikely to listen to yours. |

Metro Box Style Navigation @TylerLangan You should take into account that "Metro" was the very widely publicised name for Windows Phone and Windows 8 styling - and many members of this site will take it with that meaning, reguardless of your assertion that Metro means something different. |

What would be the best way to fill “space” in an User Interface for irregular image sizes gallery? Why not scale the images to fill the space? e.g. In your first row, scale Image#2 to the same height as Image#1 and #3, and scale the trio to the exact width of the column. For your second row, Scale Image#4 and #5 to the width of the column, and so on. Facebook and Google+ would be good references. |

Does Metro scale? A few thoughts. Firstly, keep in mind that a single screen can be very wide - it isn't limited to the physical width of the display. There are some applications (Tweetro is one) that show a lot of different information as you pan across. Secondly, Metro doesn't legislate against high information density. Thirdly, the application bar is context sensitive - while you only have a few buttons at a time, they can be completely different depending on the current selection. |

Do columns of text hurt readability on websites? A good answer - but I'm surprised that "fast" readers are shown peaking around 320wpm, that seems awfully slow. |
