Comment (by edso):

 hey Astrid,

 i took your design and tried to visualize some enhancements. just quick
 hacks nothing fancy.

 1. i reduced the opacity of the background elements to 50% for the icons
 and labels to become better readable (logo etc. should be excluded, for
 simplicity sake i didn't)
 2. desktop label text colors changed to black with grey50 outline
 3. design for 4:3 but with the possibility of cropping top/bottom to 16:9
 in mind (see below). keeing the cute bottom border for 4:3 only would
 probably be a good idea. having the map start from the very top probably
 as well.

 hope that helps.

 design a 4:3 with borders on top/bottom

 that when cropped in a 16:9 resolution still works
