    I dont get it. I think personally they totally add flair and a 3d effect to design, wrbsites, graphics and even buttons. He also claims

    That's because you can't design for shit.

    I just disagre with his color analysis. i think drop shadow always usually adds flair or improves anything.

    Nobody is willing to pay you for what you think about much of anything.

    I also like the hamburger menu and think it works great on mobile because it relieves the need for many icons or buttons and he seems to hate it:

    You're wrong and he gave like 5 good reasons you're wrong none of which you've responded to. I don't know why you bother posting these things if you don't even watch them yourself.

    He gave some good ideas in terms of using the same color like blue drop shadow for blue button but at first he just seemed so against it and even later when he said oh it’s fine or we can leave it like this he showed no enthusiasm for any drop shadows. again to me just looking at icons or buttons with it is just amazingly better. like they become visible and 3d. same thing with using illustrator on a white background of adding objects or images. i always see a huge difference with drop shadow on.

    It takes a lot of work to be a designer star trek. not everyone can change their entire career path within three months of taking an online course like anna spysz. get it star trek?

    It takes even longer when you don't take anyones advice or feedback, just argue and make excuses.

    if anna spysz took your advice she’d never take that course star trek or wouldn’t even be confident enough to say she has a chance of changing her career much less making an actual web app like she did so cocky in that medium article about online writing she wrote at the end of it.

    i mean everyone could have been telling her to be a hooker as well and she obviously didn’t take that advice did she?

    maybe you should go on welfare before another feminist challenges you for your position and you fold this time or have nowhere to run? how long do you have to commute to work now because of your running?
