A simple poll

Let's say there is a program or whatever sort of thing that does the exact same thing except the gui...

1. A shitty gui with default buttons, etc but with ok paddings and margins so that it is a bit usable (if it is a web app, no css) -- 5MB

2. A super cool 1337 h4X0R looking gui with awesome animations -- 100MB

What is your choice?

question

storage

preference

gui

    I always built my website in a simple and clean way unless they asked for it

    It depends on the apps function.
    A 100MB cool looking file copy program seems silly.
    A 100MB cool looking MP3 player is par.

    None of the above.
    3. A simple clean gui with minimal/no animation, properly designed.

    For using myself 1

    For building: the customer gets what they pay for. If they want a fancy gui, they will get it

    1, I’ll rewrite the GUI myself if I have to.

    You edited for a web site: smaller is better.

    It really depends on what it is.

    I downloaded a simple program to remind me every half hour I need to stop for a few minutes. Very minimal design, but it doesn't matter, since it stays in the background 90% of the time.

    Something like a music streaming service needs to look amazing as fuck because I'm keep it on my screen most of the time.

    I'd stick with CLI and command flags for the different functions.

    Otherwise, 1 :)
