  • Posted to Is acquired by Apple is the best end of story that could happen to Sketch?, Nov 02, 2020

    What do you mean acquired by Apple? Or are you hoping that Sketch does become acquired by Apple?

    +1 for Rama Works. Absolutely beautiful beautiful product design.

  • Posted to G Suite is now Google Workspace (with new logos), in reply to Arthur Klepchukov , Oct 07, 2020

    Totally agree. They're "on-brand" but at a glance all look the same. Also are those logos just replacing Gmail, Docs, etc inside Google Workspace or are they global changes? No clue.

    Love that they did this, that 2011 logo is so iconic

    Just checked out your other stuff too, I really appreciate the simple aesthetic. Love seeing sites like that.

  • Posted to What the actual heck is Sketch doing?, in reply to Benoît Chabert , Sep 23, 2020

    Yeah I seriously couldn't understand them being exclusive to Mac (small team, not much time, fair enough). But like the barrier to entry was already set at about $2000 if you wanted to be a designer...

    No clue what their gameplan was for targeting the huge designer base in countries with a lower average montly income who simply cannot afford a macbook.

  • Posted to Does anyone here design with an Apple Magic Mouse 2?, Sep 23, 2020

    I used to before we started working from home. I definitely did used to experience that sometimes. It didn't happen too often but when it did it was really frustrating. Plus the stupid charger on the bottom. I've been using a logitech mouse since working from home though. No issues. Just the scrolling isn't as smooth as the magic mouse - the only thing I miss about it.

    Yeah I barely even come here anymore, I used to visit it daily every morning. But like you said, now it’s just filled with self promos. I never see discussions any more. And self promos aren’t inherently bad either but for a lot of people that’s all they post, they aren’t involved in any other conversations. It’s pretty annoying and sad.

    I’ve been using Sidebar lately to find interesting stuff but there’s no comment section to have discussions with others, so it’s not really the same.

    Let me know if you do find something, I’ve been trying to find something myself as well. What were those slack groups btw?

  • Posted to How much time do you spend mood boarding in the early stages of a design project?, Sep 06, 2020

    Are you setting up deadlines for when you want your moodboard to be finished? It's much easier to make decisions when you know the deadline for finishing the moodboard is coming up in three days for example.

  • Posted to Has anyone switched from sketching on paper (or sketchbook) to an iPad?, in reply to Martin Ollivere , Aug 14, 2020

    Woah, just saw his stuff. Those brushes look quite promising (his art is great as well). I've been drawing a lot more on my iPad since my post. I think it's just been a matter of drawing what I enjoy rather than trying to force myself to do it.
