Alternative Apps New Design!
Posted: Sat Sep 03, 2011 5:29 am
You can head here to see what I've got done so far.
Well I've been working on redesigning Alternative Apps, and I got the main part of the homepage done.
As you can see from the image above.
I'm redesigning it because, atm you only have Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X for desktop apps, and Web Apps, but Android, and iOS users are pretty much out of luck. So I'm redesigning it so the user gets the best experience, but also so all these platforms will get the best/closest free alternatives to paid software.
However! I'm stuck at the main part.
I know I want it so when you click, say the Windows icon. A div fades/slides/animates in (via JQuery) and you'll have a list of paid software (I'm thinking icons instead of text). When you click it, it'll will show a description of the app, system requirements, official website url, download link, and of course screenshot.
Now you're probably sitting there thinking, "Well you got this pretty much figured out". Not exactly as the italic part is where I'm stuck at. I just don't know how I wanna design it so the user gets the best experience.
Any suggestions?

BTW: I also redesigned Alternative App's logo.
