Discount for iconjar4/16/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() Basically, we made it for ourselves.Ĭheck out our Frequently Asked Questions page on our website. Untitled UI Icons are made for Figma, in Figma, and tick all the boxes we were looking for. We couldn't find an icon library we loved so we made one. We realized we needed an “ultimate” icon library that was professional quality, but also big enough and neutral enough for any project, and designed to work seamlessly with Figma. The same goes for fill colors, stroke weights, opacity etc. For example, when you use an icon in a component and change the stroke color, as soon as you swap out that icon instance, you'll lose those overrides and have to add the stroke color again. The main problem was that not a single one was set up to respect component overrides in Figma. Some were good, but we found the vast majority lacked in quality, were overly stylized, or simply too small. When we were building Untitled UI, we looked at dozens and dozens of open source and best-selling icon libraries. In fact, we designed it this way - Untitled UI Icons are designed to be 100% Figma native, consistent, professional quality, and neutral enough for any UI or web design project. You can use this icon library in unlimited projects. Better yet, it's made for Figma, in Figma, which means they're carefully designed to be 100% compatible with Figma's latest 2022 component properties and override features. We’ve thought of everything you need for modern UI design and have wrapped it into one neatly organized package. Then it becomes an asset you can use in unlimited future projects. A good icon library saves you time and money usually spent on meticulously creating icons one-by-one, or even worse, constantly fixing existing icons so they're more consistent and optically balanced.Ī good way to frame it is to ask the question, “will this icon library save me a few hours of work in a project?” If the answer is YES, it’s probably worth the investment. You don’t realize the power of a high-quality icon library until you start using one. There are hundreds of icon libraries floating around the internet today, but the majority of them are low quality, buggy, overly stylized, or simply too small - usually all of these. Nothing stands out more in modern UI design than inconsistent icons. Why do I need a high-quality icon library? Untitled UI Icons is the last icon library you'll need and comes packed full with everything you need to design modern and beautiful UI and websites. We’ve built this icon library to be professional quality, while neutral and flexible enough for any project. We couldn't find an icon library for Figma we loved so we made one. There are hundreds of icon libraries, but the majority of them are low-quality, designed for Illustrator, or simply too small - usually all three. We're always making improvements to Untitled UI products. Pay once and get lifetime updates forever. In fact, we designed it this way - to be as neutral, flexible, and scalable as possible to use as a single "ultimate" library for any project. ![]() SVG outputs are optimized for minimal file size, no unnecessary attributes, and infinite scalability. Plus, master icons with live corners are included, so you can tweak corners for your own custom libraries. 2px stroke weight by default for visually-balanced icons across sizes. We stress these tiny details because once you see it, you can't unsee it. Untitled UI Icons use beautiful and naturally continuously 60% variable curves on all corners. We've also included an IconJar library with super-smart tags for quick search. The entire library is neatly organized alphabetically across 19 categories. ![]() Packed full with everything you need to design modern and beautiful UI and websites. Switch styles and maintain icon overrides in Figma like magic. Choose between minimal line, modern duocolor or duotone, or solid icon styles. Purposefully not overly stylized and neutral enough for any project. Clean, consistent, and professionally crafted. Crafted specifically for modern UI design.100% compatible with Figma's latest 2022 component properties and override features. We searched everywhere for the "ultimate" icon set for modern UI design to use across all our projects.

Gentle reader4/16/2023 ![]() By flaws, I mean style tics, typos, and minor errors that are no longer seem to be editted. I think when a story and characters engage me, I am fairly forgiving of flaws and just keep reading past them. I certainly get pulled out of books more now that I've gained experience in critiquing. I want the story to be about the characters, not the writer (unless it is an autobiography). It's actually all about me." Maybe that's what he wanted me to be thinking, but that's not my style as a reader or a writer. ![]() The whole time I was reading it, James Joyce was right there in my face saying, "See what I'm doing? The literary device is the thing, not the characters. *Shudder* I know old James had a perfectly legitimate reason for writing an entire chapter with no periods (and I respect that), but reading something like that just drives me crazy. If you want to give me a headache borne of pure annoyance, just hand me the last chapter of Ulysses. I expect to see that sort of thing when I read a journal forum like this (a place where things are written quickly and informally and not thorougly revised), but not in a book. That's fine in dialogue, if it's appropriate to the character, but narration that is littered with these things just annoys me. My personal pet peeve is clumsy writing (bad grammar, awkward sentence construction, misused or missing punctuation, etc.). I read Pamuk's Black Book in 2003, but I can't remember it well enough to recall if that device was there. I can understand how the kind of directness you've described above could be kind of strange, though, although I don't recall having encountered this device. I also enjoy third person narration that comes across as storytelling. I love first-person narration in which a character speaks directly to the reader as if he/she were actually sitting across from you, telling you the story. In any case, I take the long way in agreeing with prestoimp, above. Abigail Thomas, in one of the more beautiful books I've read in recent years - Safekeeping - used these direct appeals to anchor an otherwise complex poetic narrative firmly in the real (if you've read it, note the narrators phone conversations with her sister). When done well, those little breaks in the third wall feel intimate. If anything, I appreciate the device (the conceit? the effect?) when it's used well, because it feels more honest to me (tho it can be sneaky and sly, too). So it's not particularly jarring for me to be reminded that there is an author behind this work, an author making deliberate choices in service to the story, to the ideas, and to the reader. Maybe it's my limitation as a reader, but as I read, I'm always looking for the scaffolding underneath the art. Perhaps because Ondaatje hails from others literary worlds, poetry and nonfiction, he's not so invested in the aesthetics of naturalism. ![]() ![]() I don't have a copy handy, but I recall Michael Ondaatje using this technique in some of his work (I'm thinking of In the Skin of a Lion and also The English Patient, neither of which I have on hand, so I'm sorry to say I can't quote, but I think he took a light hand with it) and I think he does so to great effect. When you're reading, what forces you out of the story and makes you remember that you're reading a book? But for the moment it's just an obstacle between me and full immersion in the book.Īll of which leads (via a maddeningly circuitous route) to my Gentle Reader Question of the Day: Certainly I felt that way about the narrator in The Life of Pi, who seemed to add nothing to the story-until I reached the final dazzling chapter and realized it couldn't have been written any other way. Perhaps the reason for this device will become clear later in the book perhaps I'll even come to believe the story required it. While not uncommon in Victorian novels, this "Gentle Reader" technique is rare in modern fiction. "We'll have a lot to say about melancholy later on."."Let us take advantage of this lull to whisper a few biographical details."."We should note straightaway that this soft, downy beauty of a coat would cause him shame and disquiet during the days he was to spend in Kars, while also furnishing a sense of security.".I haven't read enough yet to form an opinion of the novel, but in the opening chapter I've found myself jolted out of the story by a literary device not often used today: speaking directly to the reader. I'm reading Orhan Pamuk's Snow, the story of an exiled poet returning to Istanbul after a long absence. ![]()

![]() ![]() No short block of text is going to adequately impress on you the scope of this novel. While with Peri the reader is treated to an unravelling of a personal mystery and the wonders and possibilities of flight. What looks like a straightforward case takes Zeke and the reader further into the mysterious and seedy world of flier culture and politics. Peri absconds with the child she is caring for and Zeke is hired to track her down. Second, Zeke an ex-cop turned private eye agonising over the choice to let his ex-wife turn their son into a flier. The story is told from two perspectives: First, Peri a poor girl made good, a wet nurse and surrogate mother for a pair of rich flyers her payment is her wings. In dripping gold letters three metres high ran the words: if GOD wanted you to FLY, he’d have made you RICH. Society limps on, the gap between rich and poor ever widening, encapsulated most eloquently in a piece of graffiti viewed by one of our protagonists: The dark underside to these genetic wonders are superbugs, ultra virulent strains of mosquito born diseases and super weeds that clog any land not repeatedly cleared. Picking your child’s features is commonplace the cutting edge of genetic manipulation is the creation of humans with wings. ![]() ![]() When We have Wings is set in a near future Australia where sea levels have risen and our tampering with genetics has altered not only our own biology but that of many of the life forms surrounding us. When We have Wings enchanted me as I was reading it and had me deep in thought when I wasn’t. It’s rare as a reviewer that I get surprised by a work, when you read a lot of quality fiction your expectations are high. When We have Wings is Claire Corbett’s debut novel, though from page one the reader is in no doubt that Corbett is a practised and skilled writer. And I really miss Zeke, Peri, Hugo and all the others. And even though we get some answers in this novel there are many questions left to consider. This is why I hope the author will continue to write about it. What defines a human being? Is it alright to manipulate your body? What happens to us when we change something in our genes? How do we wish to lead our lives? How much are you allowed to use another human being? What are we doing to our world? The novel also raise many ethical, philosophical and thoughtprovoking questions. She describes some of it, of course, but often she gives you a hint or just states a fact and let the reader form a picture of it and what has happened to it. I liked the plot but what really got me hooked was the world the author has created. Zeke, a private detective, gets involved more than he ever could have imagined and you really want to read on and on to learn what is happening. The novel starts with a death and is in many ways a crime-story. Both fliers and non-fliers live in the city sheltered from the others on the outside and the fliers seem to want to change the city to a place fit for them only. In the society, the city, there is an increasing tension between fliers and non-fliers because the fliers see themselves as a superiour kind. The story is set in a future were man has learnt to manipulate nature and shape himself into fliers among a lot of other developments. I put this novel in my SF-Fantasy shelf even though it´s much much more than that and I definitely don´t want to scare anyone from reading it. I do hope she writes a sequel! Claire Corbett has created a world I hope to read more about. ![]()

Things for iphone 64/15/2023 ![]() ![]() If that’s not a concern for you, see if there’s a color you like on Amazon. We’ve seen several complaints regarding Amzer’s customer service so just be careful. It comes off quite easily and after a week of using this case, it seems to show its wear and tear a little quicker than other cases.įor our Amzer Crusta review, we gave it a score of 3.8’ Eh’s out of 5. The thing that annoys us about the case is the TPU bumper. ![]() It’s a case that exposes the full beauty of your iPhone without actually sacrificing protection. These glass elements make it a joy to use your iPhone inside the case. The best part of this Crusta is the tempered glass back and the edge-to-edge, Kristal tempered screen protector. Now we’ll be honest with you we’re a little torn about this case as we’ve become very fond of the Crusta but there are some issues with the case that lowers the score for the Amzer Crusta down. How tough is an iPhone case made out of glass? Well, if it is the Amzer Crusta, then it’s going to be a pretty tough case. This case fares much better than the Otterbox Defender and Griffin Survivor. The buttons work, the gap between the screen protector and the iPhone isn’t terribly noticeable, and the outer shell is removable so you can tailor the amount of protection you need.īased on our time with the case, we gave the Ballistic Hardcore a score of 4 Eh’s out of 5. The best part of the Hardcore is the access it provides for your iPhone. ![]() We’ve reviewed other Ballistic cases and we’re weren’t too happy with the build quality. What’s the most surprising to us is how well built this case feels. #2 – Ballistic Hardcoreīallistic markets this as a super-tough iPhone 6 case and we totally agree. ![]() Sold on this iPhone case? See if Amazon has one for you iPhone! The Summit the highest rated tough case that we’ve come across. The design of the case is unique but like all extra-tough cases, there are issues with the usability of the iPhone inside of the case, but if protection is what you’re looking for, this might be the case for you.įor our Griffin Summit Review, we gave this shockproof iPhone case a score of 4 Eh’s out of 5. The Griffin Summit is one of Griffin’s newer iPhone 6/6 Plus cases and its a beast of a case as it’s able to withstand a 10 ft drop and is quite water resistant (we tried it with a sink filled with water). We evaluate all our products, in the same manner, to ensure consistency and each product get used for at least a week before we sit down and create a review for the product. If you’re looking for our reviews on iPhone cases, you can find them here for slim cases, for tough cases and waterproof cases. #4 – Griffin Survivor All-Terrain (Amazon) The iPhone 6(s+) are resilient devices and can take a beating so a slim case should be enough for most people. We will be honest with you we wouldn’t get a tough case unless you need the extreme protection (for example, dropping it from the roof of a house). But rest assured, when we publish something, you can be confident that you will know the best and worst parts of the product. Comments Need an iPhone case that you can drop from a roof? Here’s 10 that might protect your iPhone from a roof drop!Īt Mobile Reviews Eh! we base everything we do on actual which means our reviews and content take FOREVER to come out. ![]() |
