44 | === Wizard header === | ||
45 | |||
46 | This pattern is widely implemented when users have to fill in data in multiple steps. The purpose of this pattern is to: | ||
47 | |||
48 | * Guide users | ||
49 | * Explain the scope of the process by clearly stating how many steps are needed to complete it | ||
50 | * Show the user’s current position in the process by visually highlighting the current step | ||

71 | === Icons === | ||
72 | |||
73 | Here I've added icons for all fields and small titles, but also changed the previous added icons with the ones from font awesome (see photo number 4 from gallery.) | ||
74 | The benefits of icons in a graphical user interface (GUI) include: | ||
75 | |||
76 | * Icons can be visually pleasing and enhance the aesthetic appeal of a design | ||
77 | * They support the notion of a product family or suite when the same icons and style are used in several places | ||
78 | * Good icons can make the look of a webpage more pleasing | ||
79 | * Icons are fast to recognize at a glance (if well designed) — particularly true for standard icons that people have seen and used before | ||

107 | I made some changes on the homepage also: | ||
108 | |||
109 | * I replaced the 5 links from the anterior action box, with a button and a dropdown menu list. I find it more user friendly and more compatible with Flamingo Skin | ||
110 | * I also deleted some empty space | ||

130 | == Remove tabbed information == | ||
131 | |||
132 | Another thing that I think we should change is to remove the tabbed information from the bottom of the homepage (comments, attachments, history, information). | ||
133 | You can see the difference in the gallery. | ||
