fluid glass is here
Woah!!! did they change the boppin iconerinos???
All things are cyclical I guess lol
beautiful :-)
>>106767590>it's flatshit with vaseline smeared on top so it looks glossyI hate the antichrist.
>>106767594they look pretty
>>106766165>liquid ass Apple:/>liquid ass Microsoft:O
>>106767597What. even. This has to be parody lol. Like WTF is that powerpoint icon. How long will it take before we just go back to picrel?
>>106767613>This has to be parody lol.https://microsoft.design/articles/fluid-forms-vibrant-colors/
>>106767597why are there so many versions of each icon, what is this supposed to show?
>>106766165>muh low viscosity glass
>>106766165>>106767590>>106767597>>106767616Pretty thrilling to see volume and depth are coming back to icon design after many years of flat design.
>apple changed the game, againhow do they keep doing it bros?
>>106767643it's volume and depth without any of the meaning. they're just random indistinguishable blobs.
>>106767648the worst is people want to bring liquid ass to web design, it's terrible. figma even added this shit to create designs with it.
>>106767698i love liquid glass and wish ios26 had even more of it on my 17 pro
>>106767648>againflatshit was invented by microsoft (windows phone)
>>106767737they are clearly doing this due to the huge positive response to ios26 and the iphone 17 release
I will design so much liquid glass nowLETS GOOOOOO
>>106767597
>>106767594anon that's literally 3D
>>106766165What if I want both fluid and liquid asses?
>>106767800But it's got no texture
>>106767590Why is it all tacos
>>106767810because it's glass
>>106766165eehh its not that bad, I'd take anything over flatshit honestly
>>106767842because tacos are yummy
>>106767613>>106767597
>>106767895looks wonderful, can't wait to updoot
>>106767895sovl
>>106767895Unironically looks like AI generated slop, which is probably the intention.
>>106767870>>106767526>>106767863>>106767895we peaked in 2010>>106767590This would be fine if they made it slightly more skeuomorphic and not random shapes
>>106767597wtf is this icon design, I have no fucking idea what any of these is supposed to be
>>106768018blue = word, green = excel, violet = teams, pink = onenote etc
>>106768035why did outlook switch from gold to sky in 2013?
>>106767895Making Outlook and Word the same color was a war crime.
>>106768035yeah but it's fucking retarded, it's too abstract to tell what it even is without someone else telling you, with icons like >>106768014 you can immediately tell what it is without any previous knowledge, what the fucking fuck FUCK
>>106767597it's getting there.
>>106767895
>>106767895Man I miss Metro. At least Microsoft was trying in the design department then. Now it's just "oh let's just copy apple"
>>106768116metro was only good on windows phone and someone decided everything they make should look like this
>>106767870>all that bloatfilthy.
>>106768014Goddamn I love Vista icons, we didn't know how good we had it.
>>106767895New ones are just AI Hallucination slop versions of the 2018 ones.
>>106768014Mmmmm. What happened to making things look so good you want to lick them? Mainstream UI design went down the wrong path.
>>106766165>Step aside [marketing term], [new marketing term] is here. Buy an ad.
>>106768014These still look so modern and pretty after 20 years almost
>>106768014>frvitnvgger
>>106767895Proof that Office peaked in 2013.
>>106767597Horrific. These don't look like anything
>>106768272i like office 2024
>>106767597Imagine being one of the millions of normalfags who don't know the names of the programs they use and find them by looking at their icons. Imagine clicking on every one of the 40 blue blobs trying to find which one is Edge or Word.
>>106767895why didnt they put access on here?
>>106769084total normie death lol
>>106767607fluid ass*>>106769084nobody uses icons anymore. it's why minimalism removes the icon and not the text. they made it so minimalistic that it is now essentially worthless, a self-fulfilling prophecy.
>>106767669It's the first step. It took a long time for icons to lose all volume.>>106767594At least they have different silhouettes now. More distinguishable than flatshit where everything is a fucking rounded square. Still ways to go until the glory days of OSX.>>106767613Yeah kek. It basically looks like "we have no fucking idea what were doing, so here's an orange P with some circles"
>>10676787010.8 was clearly past the peak already. You can tell by the frosted glass that gets in the way of the reflections. Peak was probably 10.6, 10.7. Then, at 10.10 it fell off the fucking cliff.
>>106768137Device convergence was a mistake.
>>106767767migrane simulator
>>106769415something brand unity something
>>106767590I don't much like it, I liked the matte paper design, maybe zoomers would like this though I doubt they even use windows
>>106767597>>106767590it is a law of nature that anything must become more gay and retarded as time progresses
>>106766165i fucking hate modern icons. Stop having 9 icons with the same retarded uniform look, I want good art and distinctive appearances that help me quickly choose icons without having to stop for a nanosecond. i want my desktop to be full of art, not brightly colored rounded-edge useless letters, KYS
Those of us that don't like the new slop, it's because it's not meant for us.
How can I design beautiful and powerful icons like these?
Absolutely breathtaking. It really bridges the gap between my computer and my eyes. Things just feel right with how they fit together using this unified design language.
Those curves really broke new ground.
>>106766165Glass is a liquid
I love the aquarium pill!
>>106767597why is word a roll of toilet paper now
>>106766165>liquid ass>fluid assWhen do we get gaseous ass?
>>106767590I'm just glad we are moving away from flat garbage. Every step counts.
>>106770129wait for google's next iteration of material
we're back bros
>>106767590That looks so similar to the design language I see employed in the 2020s, the "plastic glossy Blender objects" type of stuff, it's not funny.
>>106770129Google already presented it as Material (You).
>>106767597this is just flatshit with a gradient. Based on how random some of these are (powerpoint) I can only assume they are machine generated
>>106770298powerpoint is a pie chart. or a plain "P"
>>106770312Those are two completely different ideas. Which is it?
>>106770312it's usually a pie chart on the windows version and a P on the macos version
>>106770329Copilot™®© will generate icons on boot
>>106767895give it 3 more years and even Excel and Powerpoint will be some shade of blue. How the fuck can you even tell the rest of those apart?

>>106771133huh? it's in figma under effects where the drop shadow etc. is

Why is the new tech thing making icons look like a cum tribute on your screen
you could replicate the feel of Aero perfectly well and it still wouldn't matter. it won't bring the mid-late 2000s tech optimism back. it'll just be an empty shell.
>>106768014>>10676939110.7 was the last good OS X update

>>106768014this makes me happy
>>106768014>we peaked in 2010If only people knew what we've already lost in the 80s.
