Whether it’s the latest MacBook, or 1000 followers on Twitter, there’s always someone willing to feed your imposter syndrome with tales of what you must have and/or be in order to qualify. Luis Ouriach offers some common sense advice to anyone feeling inadequate. http://news.webdesignerdepot.com/?xtl=3rwlw9bzdeyq4l5cili0731fz1h4mpsm2yq1qcuk837slds0raixgnakgz9g5n8dln91sdui8cwp8iqd5l22q3jci8i694a4mmeenlzxuxnwz9cv62h6kkljid82k0j5c3zi8ytu7mlomth416lyxpa4pwu7qll4dvy0cf7dausc00rhsc56gljg&xi=none@none.hu Google Announces Google Pay: If you’ve ever purchased anything from an Android phone, or let Chrome save your payment details, or purchased something on the Play store, then you’ve seen Google’s approach to payments. This week the tech giant announced that all of these commerce tools are being merged into a single entity called Google Pay. http://news.webdesignerdepot.com/?xtl=1o5kgo3ej1pj7hdcfu1tv166dgvg40n0x5crqfjdd0vy5fukc1824ok150g7yekzyfv6r56jhdw1cd7noanvbar775xeklfxv84g8xeexerkcbac87l84zvv08trxs7r02v8vvb8mjj7r2dewassplfohlap5c29vs5qdfolbi315ae75wzzc3jn2iep9ife&xi=none@none.hu Typography on the Subway: Ricardo Magalhães takes a typographic tour of the world’s subways, visiting Berlin, London, Paris, Prague, Brussels, Lisbon, Toronto, Munich, and Montreal. Germany’s design systems, Prague’s ’70s Sci-fi, and London’s classic Johnston Sans are all featured, as well as numerous other details. It’s a feast for the eyes. http://news.webdesignerdepot.com/?xtl=w9lbom1abe4r7hs8quc4kfpm0dxcc6s3jk0ps1itlbyz2le0n6tn0af3m7iuy9fz3iew5v3lfgioxmc8h8gq4p3a7ok4d6x6nrlfv8gc5vlabbx5a3oc1h9w83o9lyyaajf35x6tgvwwl24jaye7idf9dzdvtqvpbgwixqs3tgprw52m0itexl2bxs3m0yhocf9v6iv5oh0aq401a8jopntx&xi=none@none.hu FullStory Click Maps: Heat Maps of the Future: FullStory's new Click Maps replace the splotchy confusion of heat maps with a clear view of how users interact with your pages.

Mark Wilson asks if Coke’s problem is one of branding, or a shift in the way consumers shop. http://news.webdesignerdepot.com/?xtl=2z19n3cnh340upl398ikxozmqm7qpyrosln6mrpdwpvkqnf29o68muflkqiei7j7zdgk4dunobke8g0sm3b0cbq7ltdg5x7cg5bnt1e7r25k7xc46ltawkqfkqgb1vr3vuwut27bk63ytkv96sakucd15apwoi2v1tacj5m2aukn7r7cfhscsi88u69vleghpqe8p9&xi=none@none.hu Look at UX From a Different Perspective: When the Skyscanner app redesigned in 2015, the team simplified the UX by allowing users to book first an outbound flight, and then an inbound, in two distinct steps. Unexpectedly, the redesign failed. Andrea Sipos talks us through their process, identifies the problem, and offers some smart advice for UI designers. http://news.webdesignerdepot.com/?xtl=57ur3urn1tieeobiqvf1snlzrlleeqjw2yujk23r24tq57wuzqjsa3fnrz359y63i6i2vr48yji46se3vuc50bi3stdpvtoy30bxc9ih05cjvclr89xibwb1czytae128k9lhzzbgfjcfqdxdsmtx7qulkwxtksd4kziarrg08h3hfuuhx12s3no96bw8z3uwt5lpgdzr59h&xi=none@none.hu Share Your Links With Linkkle: Do you have a Facebook account? How about LinkedIn? What about Dribbble or Behance? Do you have your own site? It would make so much sense to link all these profiles together, but most services only allow a single URL in your profile. Cue Linkkle, a service where you can list 10 URLs and link to your online profiles as a group. http://news.webdesignerdepot.com/?xtl=1eyttoc52of76abwknu5bgwxiyn7g75kciq1qqypczt142wrllw0qa3zdzhps8rrmgymb1e8ank5dqotog5te6pf3bbg168og9ecuxjrlkboysl1m&xi=none@none.hu 3 Essential Design Trends, January 2018: January is a great time to pick up some new design trends, refresh our portfolios, and look ahead to the next 12 months. Our roundup of three of the top trends for the start of 2018 includes simple corner branding, a return to skinny navigation bars along one vertical of the page, and a clear preference for a peachy color palette. http://news.webdesignerdepot.com/?xtl=111qlol0guzp8bys6rsguo59ubdkwc2obsp4hb1io81a7d90m7t57ntb7h43oa3gwxtapzioxpbtevagybp78nmnocvn5cbifkkmpl4t1b50rkhqp9bg0zy4ljkxtlz5lc56ja5vu403jdwztof137q885uz7hcr3ypio3itd48dakjaaw0489cyyv55shbbtw2ufz6313hvtl&xi=none@none.hu Heroicons UI: 104 Free Vector Icons: If you’re looking to refresh your toolbox this January, then you could do worse than to download this great set of 104 free vector icons in SVG format. Unlike many free sets, these icons are super-useful with glyphs you’ll want to use. Some favorites include the waving flag, the detailed key, the series of phone icons, and the charming @ sign. http://news.webdesignerdepot.com/?xtl=1taurmob3pmf5x3371a9k128r73pvcm1qqnlsfatbjouju5v1dfi1doof2u8d7icxsobo71qq3e3kpdt14zvs2auglv3xvxvpuzevmy0z52curkcf94hmm751gfqdvizimjh0xxph277fp9i&xi=none@none.hu The Death and Rebirth of UX: For the last couple of years, we’ve been told that UX is dying out; that it is so all-pervasive that it can’t survive as a discipline in its own right. UX Designer Caio Braga looks at the case for the end of UX, what it means for designers, and which skills, assets, and processes will be most useful as UX Designers find new roles. http://news.webdesignerdepot.com/?xtl=18x960g3wv2a6yhwfxtlobv420khe2z9s4pxhf5d2a0zacr9ax043iqfrvsal7w06kwneun03qj7k0na1zqd2lusttzbmmr719x64nr736orqyxxkno1ahgomzdwso1cz3b2hw6dkn9qohsynctvph0gjmrlf99km2jsn23jn21gztx&xi=none@none.hu ========================== Go to WebdesignerDepot.com: http://news.webdesignerdepot.com/?xtl=1jf11qwhoq9hbgc6pdmerq971k9x8ral6q3lvvw170y0npr7w4tzf0g2u2s1hc1tm6f2smt4s6rqcmjqyhmznpdt7utyho9oioeubdn60hiqu3hvwdupxt32gu9puvm0px&xi=none@none.hu About: http://news.webdesignerdepot.com/?xtl=127e5i3296yof6xj6pko02zw9alqknjte5wp4tcpbfn6i4835xdciab3p6xsams5wucb1c3spli8c6pzy5d4cjj3xyjeq45rrg4745qroq7ve867px3bvq5h3ko0pyayscl93drtpyofr&xi=none@none.hu Disclaimer: http://news.webdesignerdepot.com/?xtl=1cygoiwk1htrvg7uybw2zm8pxw9hk5qayd6vlsjqrf745u00tnx4kaiilfmn29jl13v1v3xkzzpin9i7leagc40r63kztx1bbzm52wh62haq77dxud9wsz979p89bbr61jlxwec3ikvx4jhjc62jekky02w6jc48jjq79ca7r9vzd1ehte&xi=none@none.hu Advertising: advertising@webdesignerdepot.com Deals: http://news.webdesignerdepot.com/?xtl=15m3s9rlwtbcop5gy0s718gdnfqu70veomlu96x8rrzkr23c6b0s2pp83smnok78szp3jmzcn01g0pe1q74oc1iv39bmhhc6z5zvhwtazbz0pk4qph183tk14o4q4bxzc9zx1zjs4u75a5gg8rvl2qjej7m0pf&xi=none@none.hu Contact: info@webdesignerdepot.com Sent to none@none.hu unsubscribe from this list http://news.webdesignerdepot.com/?xul=edet4a23tdiskfp7r3app562bqceq5l7g0rhqnqbnp148ac88s0iellnfyl4w6gd5sntzg2b8pmomftgqzismwgwldhmefc&xi=none@none.hu Freestyle Networks Inc.
