Magic eBay or UbuSell application development

Hello!


Let's start with my very first project which was a desktop application initially called Magic eBay. Then the name got changed to UbuSell. This is a simple app which generates html code for eBay auction in very fast way with unlimited number of pictures. The UI was initially done by me then Georgi Karavasilev got involved. He came up with new UI and he also created awesome looking templates! Photos where uploaded to either Ubuntu One (which is now discontinued) or DropBox. Unfortunately this app never got released, but I use it from time to time :)



I would like to share few pictures of this application with you


Very first release :)

Adding flat icons...
(this is where Georgi got involved)


More flat icons.

More tweaks from Georgi :)

And another portion of design love from Goergi :D


Theming works!
Creating auction dialog.

This is how generated auction looks like + there
is another 8 extra themes (different colours)






OK!
And this is the moment where Georgi and I had we had great
idea that I'll rewrite the app using QML and C++ and
Georgi will do new design :)
First look of the app in QML

Look how beautiful this could look!
Thumbs up to Georgi for this gorgeous designs!


And here short video:





Did I mention that I'm horrible designer?


My icon
(I hope you get a point now)

Icon created by Georgi :)
You probably see what I mean...




This is it, sadly QML version of the app never even got to alpha version...
GTK version is still on my desktop and it seams to work with every new Ubuntu release :) At this point Ubuntu Touch was unveiled and since then I was 100% focused on QML and JavaScript...


Thanks for your time and till the next one ;)

Cześć!
