I've deleted the japanese gradient pack I was giving away earlier today since being accused of stealing another designers' work.
So let me give it to you straight.
Yes, I gave a free collection of japanese-style gradients away on X today that I curated, and made, myself in Figma.
No, they were not from @nuevo_tokyo.
You can see my working Figma file below and where my inspiration came from (a collection of gradients on Pinterest that I, myself, curated).
Simply because Nuevo Tokyo sells a $5 wallpaper pack of Japanese gradients, does not mean he owns the rights to them, nor can anyone else distribute japanese-inspired gradients themselves.
This notion is ridiculous, and I'd imagine is, ironically, the same folks bashing Figma for trademarking "dev mode".
I realize the internet rarely likes to "think" and instead would rather lob accusations at others because it's fun, but there you have it.
@darylginn I am a huge fan of your work, and I was using Godly pretty often, but after the design update, it is unusable. I don't know what is new, what I saw already, where it starts, or where it ends. The navigation is just terrible. 😢
I was about to write a post about the tool I think aspiring designers should learn, and then thought to myself - why am I not learning it?
So yeah, I am gonna learn Rive. And you should, too.
Another week, another launch 🚀 This time the gist of is live on Peerlist. Very curious how it stands against the Product Hunt.
Anyone here active on the platform?
I used to spend hours searching for the perfect font for my UIs
Now I just stick with three - Inter, SF Pro, and Inter Display.
What are your favorite fonts?
@upen946 Not only do you not need a perfect idea. Doesn’t need to be unique either. You have a better chance with something that’s already out there. Just make it better/different.
Momentum feels like magic, but it's just hard work stacked up, and it compounds when you keep working.
It beats motivation.
It beats perfection.
It beats talent.
My highest priority right now is to keep up the momentum thegistof.me got with the Product Hunt launch.
Last week, we successfully launched on Product Hunt, securing 5th place with more than 450 points. Here are the best resources that helped me prepare. ⬇️
