Re: Graphics & Layouts Examples?

Hi --

I'm wondering whether there might be any free Filemaker downloads out
there that offer examples of different graphic designs, nifty layout
strategies, effective color compositions, nice button and tab designs,
etc. I've looked at the tamplates available from FMP, but they are all
alike and look kinda dull.

I'm about to begin building a somewhat ambitious (for me) database with
multiple layouts and I'd like to make it look nice the first time
around. I'm not really looking for a template to use, but rather just a
wide variety of examples that will get me to think in fresh ways and
emulate effective design principles. There were many useful design
suggestions in the Whitepaper for FMP Novices that I read --- but Id
like to browse some visual examples to get down to the specifics of
what looks good.

thanks
Albert
