I like this interface, and I'd like to see one like this in the final HBC.
I second that. I love the simplicity and how it's organized

I quickly made this, tried to base it off of the 3DS Software boot screen. I wasn't sure of the best way to show off the animation so I just made it into a .gif.
It's simple since I'm not exactly sure how much detail I could put into it given the 3DS limitations.
If you don’t chose sunnyvoxels’s work, all the hope for a great design is lost.
I think everyone can see that his work is probably the best we could get (definately is best so far). The font he chose is good, maybe we should go with the 3rd logo (it requires some work, but I like the idea), or 2nd without stereoscopic effect (3D-ness can be shown differently).
I like the UI too, but the corners of the icons need some work. If you want them to be rounded, you should do it manually, not using the radius because it looks ugly (left picture—kinks are terrible), I'd go with something like 3rd or 4th sample.
Mine is very similar to the Wii Homebrew startup screen since I'm unoriginal, but this is a quick pic I made, probably going to make a few others.

If this was a gif or an animation the waves on top would move around and thee bubbles would float to the top

Hey Smealum,
I think we all have pretty high hopes for this!
For a logo on the top screen, should that come in a 3D (for 3DS) and 2D (for 2DS) version? It would also be a lot better if you and your team can come up with a catchy, short name that doesn't look or sound like a trademarked name -- "The 3DS Homebrew Channel" would then be immediately under that (if it detects its running on a 2DS, replace with 2DS?).
One suggestion would be "Prometheus" after the Titan who stole Fire from the Gods (Ninty+Licensees) and gave it to the people. You can then stylize the logo as a two hands held up with the offering of fire; taking a little liberty you can make it a key that is on fire. The key unlocking the 3DS, of course.
Holy carp, how are you guys animating them? owo

I think that a translation won't be necessary for the first version. In addition to that, he wants to make it open-source. You can make your own translation.I know that it's a logo/UI thread, but I have a somewhat on topic question, Smealum.
Is this going to be English-only? I'd be more than happy to translate your channel into Polish.
