xroad23808yI highly recommend this book - The Design Of Everyday Things.
It's a crash curse in design in general, not just UI/UX.
Another book is Design for Hackers -
flag020328yso I am not alone! I start out great (thats what I think) and down the road everything goes to shit

xroad23808y@flag0 the one thing that helps me a lot is to reduce clutter and minimize everything to almost the point of abstraction. I once designed a camera icon that was literally a circle inside a square. It worked beautifully.
The other thing that helps too is picking the right colors. Sure, #FF0000 is easy to code but understanding the relationships between colors and using that to help guide your users towards action items makes it work beautifully. -
flag020328y@xroad I have tried that but even after spending time aligning things and using a colour profile, it just doesn't feel right. I try to use the standard icons to minimise workload and not create confusion. My problem is that it just doesn't feel right everything together. that and animations. And the pain that is designing UI on android just makes me throw good UI in the back burner even though I know its important
