Help needed, mainly in creating a theme suited GUI.

Hello. I'm creating a game, like many... many others on theses boards.
BUT i'm different :D i'm creating something awesome, with great graphics, storylines, characters, everything... though i'm not a code-head, i'm bad at it. But i have the inspiration and i'm very capable in any other ways. (though i have destroyed my brains partially accidentally nevermind). I could use a GUI for my game, because i haven't familiarised myself to the code at all, i'll host the game at: http://waitingroom.freewebpage.org/Compiled.zip so you can take a look (and notice that the GUI's are all messed up). Hopefully i'll get some replies. I will add your name to the credits, incase you decide to create a set of GUI's for me. (Inventory, and a general top-bar.) The game will be a fallout style post nuclear warish game. umm... aye aye, thats all, methinks.

"Messed up" seems like a good term... :=

I concider GUI's being my strongest point of visual presentation in AGS games, but it's all my own style. What kind of a GUI are you actually looking for? Sierra like?

I've got a VerbCoin GUI template ready - it lacks documentation though - if you're interested, just for the sake of ideas... (And I won't be here for a few days, so it'll have to wait some time too)
I used to make games but then I took an IRC in the knee.

If you have some GUI's ready, i would happily check them out. But i was thinking of something like in sam & max: hit the road, like all the buttons on the bottom, and a button to bring up a whole screen (or nearly whole screen) inventory screen, because i will add some item combining thingies in, with a big inventoy screen it will be easier to experiment the right combinations as a player, i always like to hear other peoples opinions though  :)

host the stuff... or send me a mail, or msn at hoiveli@hotmail.com

...though i am from finland so i won't be available when people in US are awake.
(...why do i assume that you're from the US?) :D
thanks

I'll upload the template and somehow arrange the link to you... or send via MSN.

And you have assumed wrong :P

All of those GUI's are from other games right? I'm looking for something unique... but thanks  :)

Rui 'Trovatore' Pires

Yeah, thoughy you can still learn from them. And there's one or two (namely mine ::) ) which has quite non-usual interfaces (in my case, the use of inventory).
