Needs Help: Viewer Friendly Interface

Well honestly, I'm not sure if the picture there is supposed to be a straight example or an aversion. I'd assume it's a straight example, but A: it's not horribly egregious (at least to someone who knows next to nothing about how biometrics usually appear), and B: the caption makes it seem like it's at least a partial aversion. But either way, it's unclear, which is rarely a good sign.

Dexter◊ is full◊ of examples◊.

The first is my favorite (why is there even an "ignore" function for a text message? Just so the viewer knows that the text was ignored), though it'd need to be edited so they're stacked rather than side-by-side. It'd be long, but the description for the trope is incredibly long anyway, so it wouldn't look bad.

The current does seem to be emphasizing the cool factor over "user-friendly". From the OP, I'd say 1.2 > 1.1 > 1.3.

It's too bad that a screencap of a Windows 8.1 computer probably wouldn't look good at wiki size, because that would be perfect...would a closeup of a few of the panels work?

I like 1.1. The "ignore" display is so deeply audience friendly as to be comical.

The current is pretty fine for me.

I like the "ignore" image better than the current. Not actually sure what the current is showing.

1.1 is my favorite as well.

Crowner? Any more suggestions?

1.1.

for Ignore

I actually prefer 1.2, but I don't mind 1.1 if that's the more popular one.

I can live with 1.1; that's enough consensus, so I'll put it up shortly.

EDIT. Done. Caption or no?

I vote either "How do you even "Ignore" a text message?" or "She can't get messages longer than four words."

No consensus on a caption; locking up.
