Is it hard to read?, what should i change? etc.

Way too confusing on phone

It’s pretty but the boxes holding the colors take up too many pixels for their grey borders I think. I’d go simpler just in that one detail.

Love it! Knowing if something is a completely new color is such a huge thing to know! Great additions!

The only thing i might change, is the “exoworld color” icon. While i have no problems with it, it’s fairly low contrast so people with lesser eye-sight might have some issues with it.

Burrrrrrrrned haha

Amazing stuff @Gorillastomp. Cannot stress enough how helpful all your work on exo info has been and continues to be. Additional info on colors and whether they are entirely new or have been seen before is another amazing detail.

Layout looks good enough (on PC at least), icons could be simplified maybe.

Yeah you will have to turn your phone screen to see it correctly. Will be a bit hard to make it fits on that angle.

Which i could use the Arrow thing with image etc but i can’t to make it more condensed.

Borders on color icons could be removed completely - any color around the icon changes perception of the color the icon is trying to show.

Also the key icon is for blocks that some one already found in the planet?

Isn’t that a bit too much extra work?
It may be easier to mark the ones that were not found :smiley:

I like it, but I think it would help if the gray boarders around the colors were removed. Plays with my eyes.

yeah will have couple people that will have access to the database to set the found color for next exo when this si ready.

In term of work it doesn’t change much to have the icon for it when it’s found or not. Maybe it it will look more clean with less icons ?

I think you are right about the borders for the color icons, would it be better to have none at all or at least a bit of contour ?

For sure!

I think no border at all would work just fine.

I didn’t respond before now on this bc I didn’t know what to say.
Everything makes sense - lots of great info being included. Not sure about the icons…
Probably no border or a simple 1 to 2 pt black line?

At that size I think no border will look better
