What I have said is often people don't take the time to craft a color scheme. There is a difference between someone who understands the art of web experience and the person who is a coder and understands structure. If you think that major brands aren't focused on the color of packaging and web design you are dead wrong...have you ever heard of the advertising industry? The same philosophy and care should be taken into consideration when developing any website or app.

Furthermore, it was me that introduced Design Seeds to the HN community yesterday as a great resource in my article http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3467855, before aymeric posted a direct link. Jessica is an artist that loves color and is simply giving you a "DESIGN SEED" from which to build not just your website but your life spaces from home interiors, events, weddings and all types of space. It was me that brought her here and she doesn't deserve your comments. You want to criticize, come after me.

Additionally she has more than 152,330 followers on Pinterest http://pinterest.com/designseeds. She is incredibly popular and at last word her site has crashed 5 times since this post. She is not trying to make money from this.

And if you were truly a designer you would actually understand.




I'm aware of what color schemes do for businesses, I just don't think the way she presents these is valuable. I also don't doubt she's popular on pinterest. Websites like that and tumblr revolve around anyone who can provide aesthetic beauty because their traffic consists mostly of bored people clicking through pages and pages of stuff they won't remember tomorrow. I do it myself, but I have to disagree that this sort of content is valuable to a designer. It skips past the thinking and facilitates the clicking.


"Websites like that and tumblr revolve around anyone who can provide aesthetic beauty"
