Round One: Prototype + User Testing

I started to work on prototyping the key features. I thought it would be easy — since my goal is only to demonstrate one feature. As it turned out, I was too naive.

Here are several roadblocks:
1. Homepage
2. Verification email
3. Contributor’s filter.
Last but not least: How should the flow go if the system doesn't recognize the image?

I tried to deal with it to my best effort and ran several user testing sessions. The result is not satisfying, as expected.

Usertesting Feedback: #1_01

I talked to my advisor about the problem I ran into. She ran a workshop with me, helping me to structure the UX flow in a much clearer way.

Workshop with the advisor

With all the feedback I got and the skills I got from the workshop, I will revise my prototype, and hopefully, deliver a 2.0 version in a week.
