CloseI've been working on a custom save screen lately, and wanted to get a few opinions on it.
Here are a few pictures of what I have so far, and a couple of small formatting difference

And here an issue I have with the first formatting type.

I don't much like the way the "Load" tab looks that close to the first file tab, when it's merging into the main data window... I suppose I could cut a file out and move it all over to the right a bit, but... any suggestions?

It looks pretty good overall, I think though, that the "load" tab, should perhaps go under Tab 1 after the selection, and maybe make the tabs themselves slightly larger. But, other than that, I like it.

I'm not quite sure what either of you mean haha...
Tanakayuuji: Like, the File tabs should move left a little bit, so that when I select a tab, they can actually overlap the Load tab? And do you mean make the tabs longer? or taller? or should I move the inactive tabs further down, to give the impression of the main tab being taller than the rest?
Versalia: Did I post in the wrong topic? Or is there a post with instructions on how I should format this post that I didn't see? I saw the Kentona post about submitting screenshots, but I don't really have a project in mind to date, I'm just fiddling around with scripts and menu design at the moment.

Well, I could be way off-base here, but I'm assuming that Versalia was talking about this thread. Though he could just as easily be talking about this thread.
I'm tending towards the latter thread, as the topic's title more than suggests that it's a place to dump screenshots, whereas the former thread is more about general idea dumps.
Don't worry too much about whither or not you posted in the wrong place. You just didn't know there was a topic (despite it being stickied) where people post screenshots.

Hm, yes, move the file tabs so they overlap the load one. I also like the idea of giving the illusion that the main tab is larger. I think that would be best, though, what I meant was to make the tabs both taler & wider.

Tanakayuuli: Thanks, I'll give it a shot and see what I come up with, then repost some in here when I'm done,
Marrend: Hmmm I dunno, I was looking for some responses and criticism on this menu, that looks more like a dumping ground for pictures, and like it would be really easy to lose your spot...

That's... kinda understandable, actually.
Anyway, looking at the pictures, I think I'm beginning to understand what Tanakayuuli wants to see. Meaning, having the "load" tab on top, then having the slot tabs under it. A least, I think that's what he's saying? Good luck with your finagling!

Alright so after a bit more fiddling, this is what I've got now.

I'm pretty happy with this one now, the play time in the corner dissappears if the file doesn't exist.
Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated!

Hm, I like it, quite a bit. It looks good, and the disappearing play time tab is an excellent idea.
