@miggi @figma Do we need a Figma Education Plan (or whatever it's called) in order to attend?

@DannPetty Show us, do a video

Design in Figma. Build in Figma Make. This combo is still so underrated!

@UiSavior What size fries are those?

A or B?

@nostalgiaa Overrated show. Mostly boring with action taking place off-screen. Best fight was against the vampire towards the end of the last season. Fight me.

Todd McFarlane's Spawn (1997)

@hewarsaber I don't understand...How does "Some of the websites I really love" translate to "Some of the websites I designed"?

Design Twitter used to be a good place. Now it's this Posting others' designs with a vague caption so people think it's yours This is a new low.

@UiSavior Why "male"?

Dear Algorithm, connect me with more male designers on the TL. Product designers Graphic designers UI UX designers Packaging designers Motion Graphic designers If you’re in tech space, just say Hi . Let's connect 🤭❤️

@AdhamDannaway That hero section alone is pure 🔥

Epic website for what is sure to be an epic game 🤩 Love the craft and attention to detail in the character and city design. Must have taken a crazy amount of time and effort 🤯 → rockstargames.com/VI

@DPietrasiak @thalion_pb @Airbnb ChatGPT produced 3D models that you could open in C4D/Blender3D/Spline and edit?

@thalion_pb @Airbnb Thanks! The original icons were fully created by me. I used a ChatGPT prompt to generate the 3D models, following specific constraints to preserve the original colors and composition.

The new @Airbnb icon approach caught everyone’s attention! I couldn’t resist rethinking the navigation for my latest project.

Design by committee ✈️ 😅

@Berezin12345 @BrettFromDJ Thanks for that, you'e a legend ✌️

@MrNiceLeon @BrettFromDJ It's actually very simple. The image of the chocolate cup was generated in ChatGPT 4o, following the method demonstrated by Brett (logo + texture). After that, I extended the image to a 9:16 format using FreePik. Finally, I created the video using Google Veo 2.

Turn your logo into a 3D masterpiece using any material imaginable. Here's my process in ChatGPT 4o:

@Berezin12345 @BrettFromDJ Would love some kind of 'How to' for generating a 3d model of a realistic coffee cup –even if just a still image

@gilverse_design That Sekiro poster tho 😍

This August has been one of the craziest months in my life. I turned 30, started my X journey, launched my personal website & overall a busy but productive month. Cheers to many more to come. 🍻 (P.s: Introducing Polo, my big boss)

@stfnco Those shadows 😍

the new studio website is live ↓

@Piccia DRACARYS 🔥

Would you tell a 50+ man with hair loss to get a hair transplant? No? Then why the fvck is it ok to tell a 50+ woman to dye her beautiful silver hair??? (Yeah I am fucking fuming)

@itsdesignertom "Ship ideas that don’t actually matter" I lean on your every word always –real talk. But regarding the quote above...What about the company that the designer works for?

Good designers add 1. They create more than they consume: - Use the right fidelity at the right time - Build systems when they’re needed - Take the best notes and share them - Host open-invitation office hours - Ship ideas that solve real problems Bad designers subtract 1. They consume more than they create: - Slowwwly push pixels to perfection - Build systems for a far away future - Gatekeep information - Prioritize arguments over action - Ship ideas that don’t actually matter The job of a designer is to produce new value. Period. Good designers relentlessly focus on this. Bad designers succumb to design hedonism. In the end, it comes down to simple math: Good designers: +1 Bad designers: -1 Which digit defines your work? The world needs more +1 designers. Here's how to become one: - Solve expensive problems - Do what’s necessary to move quickly - Launch, gather, iterate - Teach your techniques Be a good designer. Add 1 to the world.

@ridd_design The part where we were intro'd to the new bad guy (what Juan mentioned) was epic –Love it when they go in hard on little details, like what fireworks could look like 8000 years from now. Think they invented a new language for the franchise or something too, I could be wrong

I'm not the kind of person that walks out of a movie theatre and tweets but damn... Dune was so good. The sound design alone was worth the ticket 🎟️

@RossHatton @ridd_design Thanks Ross. Legend✌️

@ridd_design Would you say it's a good (enough) way to show off design iterations on the mobile version of a portfolio case study?

Ok, I'll admit the carousels are 🔥 Pretty fun way to share WIP shots
