No, not always.
A mathematical proof can be aesthetically pleasing; as well as a nicely designed algorithm.
Sometimes when a proof of concept is not aesthetically pleasing, it might simply show that you do not have a complete understanding of the concept itself and it shows in the proof of concept; you have to re-iterate on the proof to make it cleaner and more "pleasing".

Who is the target audience? If the idea is a good one who knows who may get to see it. If it requires code to show then a manager may not get it. I agree with Pete - find a more generalised way of expressing ideas.

Never, ever "throw together" some code to prove a concept: some sunshine will sell it, and you will have to maintain it for years...

Truer words have never been spoken, as a proof of concept designer this is all too true.
The only thing I could add is don't let anyone talk you into using VB6 "...because creating a UI is fast."
It was broke, so I fixed it.

Did you write
static public void instead of
public static void ?

Maybe the idea you are trying to promote is still too much a draft and not clear enough as a proof of concept; just re-iterate on the ideas, clear out some of the cobwebs.
Sometimes what seems to be clear to you is not understandable by your audience.

I like the snake game. Reminds me of the old BASIC program with weak graphics. I would tweak the source code. It was one of the first pieces of code I ever worked with.
Fun stuff.

Under Haverley's Third Rule, you know that it's never on a Friday when the Colonel is wearing Tweed. You were, of course, thinking of Marylebone unless you think that the Didcot Underpass comes into play, which of course means I would have to counter with Mid Hill East.

Well I had forgotten that obscure rule, (I believe it hasn't been played since the late 1970's, all that controversy about having to expose a little bit of thigh at Kings Cross or something), so I will obviously counter with Embankment!

Ah. Good choice. I see you're playing under the Fotheringay-Phipps variation. In which case, I have no choice but to counter with Neasden.

Did you remember to tip him his Friday Thruppence? His 18 children do appreciate it, though where someone of his small stature finds the energy, I don't know.
