4) BIAB actually has different color schemes (since that was mentioned above). If you go to "Opt, Prefs" and select the color button, you can define your own colors. However, the help system doesn't explain what each element represents, so it's kind of hit or miss. This was added a bunch of versions back, and you will see some of the pre-defined schemes there that beta testers came up with.




Right, I'm aware of that but all that does is change basic 'flat' colors, no texture, no highlights. I'm not a graphics designer so I'm probably using the wrong terms I'm sure but look at other apps including the Ozone pic Rharv posted. See the highlights on the outer left and top? That gives the impression it's a real physical piece of equipment. I have several apps where the knobs look like they have chrome inserts with those little camera flash highlights, others like the B4 Hammond organ have very good woodgrain and texture on the black keys and stuff like that. Biab is just blah, straight colors, that's it.

Now having said that I agree the functionality is what's important and after all these years using it I really don't care but as a long time marketing guy it's the sizzle, the appearance that sells. If that wasn't true people would not be using various forms of makeup, jewelry, chothing for what, thousands of years?
