Hi all

I've been reading this forum since I bought my first WM device - Touch Diamond so thanks for all of you for contributing, developing great apps, cooking roms etc. So far I have been mostly reading, as you see this is my first post, but now I would like to offer you help.

My interests and hopefully soon education too are related to User Interface design, so basically anything related to the topic of making a good, user friendly interface. So far I have been reading and analysing a lot but I haven't got a chance to design a real thing (designing interfaces for imaginary applications is not really the same), that's how I came with an idea to help you guys developing your apps. I'm not a programmer, I'm not a graphic designer so I can't help you with coding or ready buttons or skins but I think I could help you with design itself, ie. how to organize options, choose the right symbols for icons, use buttons of the right size, colour & in the right place, minimize the number of taps needed to perform frequent operations and so on and so on. It involves too many aspects to put them all here. Generally I would like to try to help you make your application user friendly and easy to use.
Do I ask for something in return? Well, yes. If you decide to use interface designed fully or mostly by me please give me a credit for that in some "about" window or a readme file. That's it.

If any of you would like to give me a chance I would be grateful and did my best to help the best I could. Please PM me with any questions or offers.

Many thanks
Pawel
