I know there are a lot of tech-savvy people in the fedi. Help me out?

What do you think of the USPTO's assertion that an icon or a GUI "an integral and active component in the operation of a COMPUTER"?

See
https://www.federalregister.gov/public-inspection/2023-25473/guidance-examination-of-design-patent-applications-related-to-computer-generated-electronic-images?utm_campaign=subscriptioncenter&utm_content=&utm_medium=email&utm_name=&utm_source=govdelivery&utm_term=

Would it be more accurate to say that an icon or a GUI "an integral and active component in the operation of a certain piece of SOFTWARE"?

Is this a distinction without a difference?

God bless #stablediffusion. Look at this potential rework of the X-Box interface. It's beautiful. Someone get this to Microsoft. @shanselman put this in front of your work friends. Someone get Steve Balmer on the line. This is important. Some art designer please fine tune this with some real icons and fonts and stuff. This could be your magnum opus.

Today I began building a native icon manager app for Linux.
On MacOS, I relied on IconJar to select icon sets that fitted different visual styles. It also gave me lightning-fast access to glyphs I would use over and over again, like arrows and chevrons.
While we have Norde Source for Linux, sadly:

If we have subtitles, can we talk about “suptitles” in English?

I want to use it for a CSS class name for you know, a typical uppercase title with some letter-spacing, often positioned above a headline. What’s the right term for this? 🤔

I'm experimenting on displaying media on Mastodon posts. Very long mobile posts or images with aspect-ratio of 2:3 that have more height than width are usually difficult to perceive on a busy feed. This change would make those long posts smaller while retaining the 1:1 or 16:9 posts as they are.

One great benefit of being a designer and developer is that if want something that doesn’t exist, you can just make it.

The World Cup is the biggest sporting event that exists. Yet there’s no good mobile app to track the tournament. So I made my own.

The Women’s World Cup kicks off in 11 hours. I’ll be tracking it with my very own app. Lessgo!

CozyFish UI - Gitlab → voici la page Gitlab de mes fichiers custom CSS et thèmes pour Firefish ​:chick_aww:​

Les 2 ont été créés pour aller ensemble mais le custom CSS fonctionne normalement très bien avec les autres thèmes par défaut de Firefish (j'utilise les variables de couleurs dans le css)

Vous pouvez me conseiller, me réprimander parceque j'ai mal fait la page gitlab, contribuer (en rendant le code plus propre ou en ajoutant des fonctionnalités), ou partager si le projet vous plaiiit ​:boost_requested:​

The iMac launched in August 1998 (25 years ago).. I decided to create some new icons inspired by the iconic computer that changed the history of Apple, Inc and computing forever. #icons #icondesign #uiDesign

Trying to decide between error message summary format.

First has message at top. Page would scroll up on form submit.
Second has message show right above buttons.
Button container sticks to bottom of screen on scroll.
I like the message showing right above buttons because you'd see it right where you clicked but concerned it would cover too much of the page, especially on mobile.

For the sake of browsers default scroll overflow, pay attention to your website's <html /> and <body /> elements backgrounds.

It should be the same colour as the Navbar and the Footer elements, otherwise it looks just bad.

Details matter in .

My lovely wife is looking for her first job as #ux and #ui #designer and I would deeply appreciate a boost (here or on #LinkedIn) if you know someone who might be interested in hiring her.

I switched industries a couple years ago and it's tough to find your first job without any proper experience, took me 5 months. Maybe it will be faster for her. 🙂

Boosts for bigger reach appreciated! ✌️

Latest Mastodon Bird UI 2.0.0rc adds proportions for the new copy icon in profiles. Often times the icons seem too big in relation to each other in the default UI.

Please note v2.0.0rc is only supported by the bleeding edge (main/v4.3.0-alpha.0), it's a pre-release for the upcoming major Mastodon version.

Preview: https://mementomori.social/

Did you know that the vertical positioning of colons isn’t constant? It varies depending on the typeface and in some cases its surrounding characters.

There are three basic conventions that I’ve seen within various typefaces:

  1. Always set to baseline (see Lato).
  2. Aligned with character height (see Inter).
  3. Aligned based on context (see San Francisco).

I prefer to the third approach. How about you?

Figma help needed! Sort of. I have some colleagues who will be using Figma for the first time soon. Do you have any Figma introductory courses or resources that you can recommend?

I specifically would like ones you know are good - from doing them or people recommending them. (I have of course used search engines myself already)

Boosts welcomed!

Has anyone here used Figma? What to do when there is no Add Flow Starting Point? Currently I can only have one flow and need multiple.
