Love image cropping tools and @pendev. Tough UX to get right. I ended up with the same solution for Fujifilms’ B2B and B2C software too long ago now. Was a fun problem to solve and also frustrating to get it to work with the print systems.
Image Crop just landed in @pendev! With Stretch, Fill, Fit, it's the most advanced image crop out there :)

With the important caveat that it is *remote* MCP server only (will get monetized). That’s how Paper.design is as well. It should be a CLI local to desktop.
Now you can use AI agents to design directly on the Figma canvas, with our new use_figma MCP tool and skills to teach them. Open beta starts today.

This is good. Very shadly @shadcn.
We're cooking up a fresh new design for AI Studio! ✨ And we'd absolutely love your input. If want to test an early prototype and share your thoughts on a call, just drop a reply below! Your feedback will help us shape it.

Hey there @Leonardo_Color - check this out. I’d love non-linear editing across the scales and an RYB (or similar) color space. I also wonder how this would look with contrast adjustments.
Here's a little tool I built to design Flexoki 2.0. I wanted artistic control over ramping while still interpolating colors programmatically with Oklab. In the future it could be used to create more hues and emulate watercolor pigment types within the Flexoki color space.

Design matters but that term is as broad as the word innovation. I’m of the opinion the vast majority is awareness, activation, growth - selling the thing. Statistical note: AirBnB spent roughly $1B in 2023 in advertising.
I once heard that AirBnB spends roughly $100m a year on their design. And it seems like it's well worth it. Here are a few principles you can steal from them 👇

“This thing is so conveniently hideous, so hastily tossed up, there has to be something else in the works." Creative Review asked me and a few peers in design and brand to weight in on the X-Mess. We did. And what a mess it is. creativereview.co.uk/twitter…

I wonder if there are guys laughing alone while eating steak while thinking of women laughing alone while eating salad. Maybe. @BlakkFriday #midjourney #midjourneyAi #menwithsteak

@midjourney is the new graphic designer that expects you to hover over it and give direction. Slept on beta and finally dove in. A short 🧵🪡 #midjourney #mynewartdirector #speedofthought #ai

At this point, addiction to the GPU is on. This needs to be a fully personalized desktop and mobile app experience for drag-and-drop combinatorial play. @midjourney #midjourney
