Pixels of the Week – February 5, 2016
Every week I post a lot of my daily readings about Web, UI and UX Design, mobile design, webdesign tools and useful ressources, inspiration on twitter and other social networks.
This week’s selection: a social media image/ad size tool, making a webapp installable, design and manipulation, the power of the delay when it comes to paying for product/services, preparing and anticipating clients feedbacks, a nice circle slider, an e-commerce impressive case-study, a little bit of pathfinder trolling, some graphic trends and lovely music albums colored covers. Also don’t miss the CSS tutorials (masonry, editing image and customizing checkboxes), a responsive email tool, a list of UX tools and a fun bio generator.
