How can I highlight errors when bright red is the main color of the brand? @norabora that's no news to me. I've been practising interaction design since 2005, so that solely depending on a colour to convey a state being a bad idea is nothing new to me. However, the OP stressed the issue he saw in using red for error messages in a red predominant context. So I gave my two cents on that specific question, but left out the accessibility aspect (even though the image clearly depict it). I thought your answer that clearly stressed the importance of accessibility was a good one, which was why I +1'd it. Can't help that the majority liked mine better though. |

Graphic content label @Ana after your comment I realized that I had severely misinterpreted the context of the question. So I removed my post. |

Is it a bad idea to use grey buttons? +1 I like the suggestion on letting the secondary actions apply a white background with orange text, like a negative to the primary action. I picture it both as looking better than it does now, plus it would run a much lower risk of falsely conveying a disable state. Good answer! |

Is it good practice to force users to give us their email address before showing them our site? @pkamb But the case that the article covers in the answer above is not you, me or jwenting. That's a case with a very wide demography, it's been hinted that the site in question is Amazon, which has a very broad target group. And in this case having forced input of email scared users off. You can argue all you want that it's not the same scenario, but that there would be any difference in a case where you don't even show content before users leave out their email I simply wont buy. I'm positive that the result would be even more catastrophic, with an even larger drop-out. |

The current NEW looks OLD later It's so extremely brand dependent that it can't be answered with such vague context. Some markets accepts (and expects) changes to be done with the brand, other markets are extremely contrarious towards change. |

screen resolution for android and iPhone design in Photoshop Hi Arun, and welcome to the forum. The 72px/inch is the resolution density. It is the density that best mimics (perhaps even corresponds) with the physical display resolution. We have a small problem though, this question is probably off topic for the subject of user experience. Perhaps ask it in GraphicsDesign.SE if you want a more thorough answer. |

Whether to use pointer (hand) over a button or just the default cursor @nimrod thanks, I agree with your point also. As far as I'm concerned it's better to be consistent in interactive feedback and use the pointer hovering effect for all interactive elements. I don't really see the benefit behind this strategy to be honest, maybe someone else does? |

Tag cloud for web site actions - a no-no? Seeing your link with a working example made me think of this question. |
