Pixels of the Week – July 10, 2015
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: SVG logos for developers, interface animation, Facebook’s new friend icon, responsive ads, is Web Design dead or not ? typography explained to children, some nice pictures and a few SVG / Flexbox tutorials. There’s also some nice icon freebies and a free book on color theory.
