Goal: share a picture from son's 6th birthday

Individual Designs

Joe

Tiny Screen

This design tried to tackle the extreme case of having a tiny screen, perhaps on a mobile device.

The process of finding a specific picture is done by searching through a calendar layout.

Sharing is accomplished by using the link provided for each picture. It is left to the user to share as they please.  

Illiterate Users

Tried to illustrate flow of site without text, so primarily with images. Visual breadcrumbs help understand where they are in the process.

Used pictures of children to illustration aggregation by person.

Pictures would be shown in chronological order which would hopefully be apparent based on the content. An envelope represents a link to email it. The recipients of the email are represented as pictures a well.

Ultra Efficiency

All manipulation is done through entering commands and hotkeys.

The command bar shows the current search query. A matching contents bar shows different hotkeys to copy links to images, allowing them to be shared through links.

Design Themes:

  • Judicious use of screen space due to smaller size
  • This lead to less and simpler features i.e. primarily focusing on dates only
