Hi all,

First of all sorry for the cross post. I was not sure which ng would be
most appropriate.

I need a book that gives guidelines on good GUI design (preferably,
comes with a few template GUIs one can extend). There seems to be so
many books out there, I would be very grateful to hear from any
experienced GUI designer out there - who can recommend a book for
designing GUIs.

A bit of background of my self. I am a C/C++ developer, but have some
basic GUI design experience using VBs Form Designer. I have a little
experience of MFC but I'm hoping to generate a lot of the boiler plate
stuff using MFCWizard.

I look forward to any suggestions.

PS: Any suggestions of libraries that I can use to enhance the GUI (e.g.
XP look and feel, chart controls etc) will be evry welcome.
 
many thanks all, for your very useful and informative feedback.
Lots of food for thought!. Once again, many thanks!
