So about a week ago I randomly sat down in Photoshop and threw together a suggestion for an alternative layout for the SMF installation script, since I've always found it ugly and messy (sorry, but it's true). I posted it in a couple of unrelated places[1] and got some positive feedback so I thought hey, why not give it a try over here as well, where some real hardcore SMFers can tell me what they think (I also don't want to waste time over at SM.org...). Hope you're okay with that, heh :unsure:
I tried to keep this one small and clean, yet still informative for people who aren't as used to it as us nerds. I didn't go with Curve's colours and layout since, quite frankly, I'm dead sick of it. It just doesn't work any more. This one is a lot (!) more modern, to me.
That does means it doesn't have much of an SMF-feel to it, of course, which may be both good and bad. To me it's good, since SMF needs a huge overhaul UI-wise anyhow. Here goes:
