If you want the clean lock screen, MAG's planning to push an update to enhanced-lockscreen to make it better. Grab that one and pin the package, never update it. It's likely going to be the last one of the "simple" lockscreens.

Also, you could've worded your first post less flame-y. Seriously, only a Facebook Generation teenager confuses a gradient for a rainbow, calls a mockup "homosexual" and girl-oriented (hey, you know, there are WOMEN who use the N900! yes, WOMEN!)
well I see u are not open for others opinion. I dont see anything wrong in thinking that some people would like to have simple view with add-ons.
and for ur information: it is nothing against girls or gays but only general statement when u have all of that colorfull stuff and funny icons so I dont know why u put all of that stupid Facebook Generations sth. and rainbow was a symbol only so chill out
I bet some of women would like to have simple ver too and trust me not all the women only think in colors man

I still think that first project of Muhammad was the best one if we talk about its simplicity, I would only see some more add-ons on it without huge colorfull icons, that is my opinion and u dont have to agree with it

Let's try with white icons, and let the community decide.
BTW, the dark overlays are needed, unless you like having a very bright background and struggle to find the icons.
Personally, since they will only appear when you have a notification, I'd the the icons to be colored to stand out.

with dark background it looks better but (in my opinion) the nottifications area should be lower and smaller. and why not more transparent stripes

Do note that it looks big on a computer monitor, and it will become smaller on the N900. The sizes are just about right.

The unlock bar will be easy to press since it's a large bar, but if you're moving around, it wouldn't be so easy to press the notification buttons. And no, using the stylus is completely against the point of finger-friendly (remember, MAG is not making this just for the N900, but also for other MeeGo Devices.)

I really like Hurrians designs, but IMHO the player buttons should be way bigger and further apart. You want to operate this screen with one hand, no stylus.
A bit of N9-ish idea: No buttons but the whole music "widget" as a slider. Slide it left or right to skip track, press to play/pause.
Also I'd vote to keep the unlock slider a slider. Double-click unlock wont work with a resistive screen (or rather would work all the time in your pocket). Since this program needs to be really fast I'd also suggest to keep it low on functions, but the huge clock is a must. Amazing work as usual, MAG!

You still need to push the power button to get to the unlock screen so having one click hould be sufficent to stop unlocking by accident?

Please cut it man. On what basis are you talking that Hurrian is not open for others opinion?? As far as I'm viewing this thread, he is constantly changing backgrounds and styles the whole day according to the community's likes and suggestions.
You on the other hand, do nothing and demand to be given what you like? Make it yourself bro. Dont put the blame on a member of the community.
As far as I saw me and everyone else in this thread including the creator of the project MAG himself likes his designs. So if you want a simple lockscreen, stick with the original one or borrow code from MAG and make it yourself as per your tastes. Afterall its opensource.

Firstly, Great application MAG. looks great!!
Just wondering, How can I change the default background for the Lockscreen? The current one isn't to my particular tastes.

(Opinion!! not saying it looks creap before someone shoots me...)

Hi, your previous posts with the colored notifications were better and everyone loved it. And the new email notification is great too. But it would differenciate itself from the SMS icon much better if you'd use that blue color which you had initially used for the email.

everything else is perfect and I guess it satisfies almost everyone here.
