I have alway credited sincerely the fantastic job that HS layout creator did in matter of Artwork. My "selling" point (selling is funny, because Atomic is totally free, and i even don't force the user to be registered or what ever else to download something) as you say ,is just : "If you like hyperspin look but don't have a enough powered machine , Atomic is a good alternative". Where Hyperspin needs a 3ghz machine with 1 giga or more ram and accelerated graphics card , Atomic needs a celeron 800mhz with 256 mega of ram and a standard VGA card. (so don't talk me about hyperspin performances). I don't try to compete with Hyperspin (anyway i could not, no time for that), i just propose an alternative usable on low end machine. That's all. Hyperspin is a very nice looking FrontEnd , the layout are really fantastic , And if you have a high end machine you should use it. I don't pretend my Atomic is better or even try to compete. At least on graphic aspect. It is lot of harder to make an animated layout for Atomic than it is for HS. and last point, The layouts you can see have been done (or ported from HS (and it ask lot of work , just try you will see...) by AtomicFE community not by me (i made about 40 i think on the 600 or more available). Did you care about the author of the original artwork you ripped? Do you have the feeling you stoled their work? Now, if there is legal issue on layout i made myself . You can prove you have some copyright on artwork. I will change them no problem. and speaking about my website what duplicate HS Download Section , you didn't noticed it is not my website. i didn't made this website and it is even not hosted by me. If you want see my web page for the layout download it is here : http://www.atomicfe.com/Downloads/Layouts_in_progress/download_layout.php And i insist : All Artwork have been reworked for AtomicFe , and not take as is. i repeat : just try to port one of your layout on AtomicFE and you will see the amount of work. And you will see that what you need to do , is the exact same thing you did from the orignal Artwork you reworked. Anyway i understand your "frustration" , i had the same feeling what i saw everybody say "waooouh" when they first seen Hyperspin whereas AtomicFe offered the same possibilities (except the spin) since years. Hyperspin marketting is lot better than mine! :D I'm not in business , i just propose a FrontEnd for Free and Really for Free . If you like it i'm happy , if you don't like it I understand. Now there is a good choice of very great front end. The Time of pionner is finished. The only think i wish is that some great front end stay Free. --- End quote --- That's why i voted for atomic fe! :cheers: youki has done so much for the front end industry! As soon as i clear my credit card debt I'm planning on donating some cash via the atomic fe website! :notworthy: Atomic Fe is wicked! Really easy to work with also! :applaud: especially the scrolling street fighter menu (scrolling) found this video on you tube of it! Would love to see something like this just mortal kombat :) i don't have the skill for that tho! |

Hmmm, I don't know but I find those HS and AtomicFE themes EXTREMELY busy and not pleasant to the eyes. So many colors and everything moving at same time! I don't know if I should look at the background, movies, title, flying logos etc. I worked as a graphic designer for a long time before I got to the film industry and I can say that those templates are really hard to 'read' most of the time. I use Maximus Arcade on my machine and I can say it's BY FAR the most pleasant front end visually speaking. Great taste and some subtle stuff that make it look really professional and well thought visually. On the down side and this is big, like others mentioned, the support is ridiculous to non-existent. A paid product that gets an update every couple of months and the author don't even bother to answer people's questions or most PMs, leaving everything for DeLuSioNaL29 to answer, who is actually a very helpful guy, a voluntary that really try hard to help others but there is only so much he can do. Mameseer, be nice to your clients dude. Answer to their questions and fix those bugs that are there for a while, most notably the errors related to director. You have a great potential piece of software but you're slowly killing it and this is unfortunate... I'm not saying the other ones are bad at all! I believe they are probably great frontends just by looking at what people are doing with them, with lots of amazing tools and all, but the current themes being developed are not helping in my opinion. No offense. HyperPin looks very clean and pleasant visually though. Effective and cool. Now I just need a virtual pinball machine so I can install it :-( My 2 cents. |
