So, I spelt contrast wrong in the video. Please forgive me

One of the main reasons I went into web design is because it's really easy to change my spelling mistakes, it's a disaster for print. One time I worked under a senior designer and I pointed out her packaging design sample said Made in Cananda "Oh, is Cananda a real place?" and the whole office panicked because those were in Bed Bath and Beyond 😆 they got so mad at me because I couldn't stop laughing.

You spelled “spelled” wrong here too. But it’s all good.

Something about the presentation may make it slightly harder to notice, but once you know it's there you can't not see it. I've committed more than my share of similar errors.

Plot Twist: He's a genius and he knew we would all comment about the word CONTAST, increasing the engagement signal for the video.

LOL I also thought he is engagement farming

you sound like summonin salt, and you are speedrunning entire courses in 10min videos so it kinda fits. thanks fam

I’m so glad I found your channel. I’ve learned so much. Excellent content. Thank you!

The information is so great and the videos perfect. And it’s such a shame that they don’t make a “start here” playlist with all the beginner level stuff - I would totally binge watch the list.

You inspired me to buy "Don't make me think revisited by Steve Krug." I read it cover to cover. It was really enlightening. Thank you. I also bought most of the books that Steve recommended, such as "The Design Of Everyday Things - by Donald Norman" and another book about web forms. I have a stack of books now, and I've been making progress on reading them while I lie awake at night. I wanted to share. I hope you continue making videos. You have a niche that people need to hear. Your logical approach reminds me of another content creator I watched and learned so much from.

This is such an undervalued piece of content, great job.

Underrated channel. superb quality and content.

binge watching all your vids! love them, learning a lot

Thank you Aaron, great straight forward content. Much appreciated.

Very grateful for coming across this channel!

This video was super helpful! I'm new to website design, and I was making some major mistakes. Thank you!

Thank you. This was very informative and exactly that I was looking for. Definitely I will check your other videos. Once again, thanks.

love this channel. informative but fun... in a deadpan kind of way.

Thank you for being informative and down to earth.

Super informative and entertaining. I like your presentation style and humor.

Great video! Some key points were highlighted that I hadn't heard anyone else discuss. Thank you!

The way you said - hell with the C.R.A.P 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I like your video presentation. It is informative too, at the same time. Thanks a lot for your guidance!

Great video! Thank you for posting.

Very much appreciate your content, take care sir.

really loved it 🤩

In contrast, great video

Excellent.

Contast is importatn

Great vid bruv 👌🏻

Funny and good stuff!

Your content is really good. Informative, well structured, crisp, practical and actually useful. Thank you. ❤ One other thing, can't you use the acronym 'B CRAP' for the basic principles? (Because is sounds like be crap, obviously 😁)

Very helpfull 🙌

Your videos really help me, you explain everything really good, so that even I can understand everything perfectly (I am actually german and english was my 3rd language, but still tho you explain everything on an understandable basis). But the reason I leave a comment is not because of how I like your videos, I honestly just wanted to ask what program you are using for these graphics you sometimes put into the video (I mean something like at 2:17 where you talk about different types of balance), I would really appreciate a response. But if you will not see this comment do not worry, for I will still stay subscribed and like your videos!

Your doing great videos....just great....i have watched almost all of ur videos.....u know a lot....but u made very less videos that in some cases is opposite of some KZreadrs with the same content....u deserve very higher likes n subscription.....but u need to be more consistent...i know u know better....anyway....thank u n appreciate sharing your knowledge 🙏🌺👍🙏🌺👍

You're creating amazing content that's quite helpful in real life. I visited your site but to my surprise, I can't find any good websites with the principles/techniques that you're telling. Neither the pricing that you've mentioned matches the type of work you've listed in the portfolio section. Please tell me if I missed something? I've following you for a long.

If you look at the two colors in the first capital T in 'CONTRAST", the lighter color on the right makes a kind of lowercase 'r', so you can read it as a very clever way of misspelling CONTRAST without misspelling CONTRAST. Obviously, intentional.

Contast. 😅 I'm watching this twice cos there are a lot of good points and I need improvement in all 5 principles.

I'm glad you said you didn't give a fuck about these principles, bc it's such a gray area for me. I feel like these principles are a failed attempt to add rigid rules to design..or at least to describe in words what people find visually appealing. Maybe my problem with it is the use of the word "principles" instead of something like "guidelines" or "suggestions." You mention "there's almost a subconscious effect" - I would argue it's almost all subconscious, in fact, the primary goal of UX is to organize information in a way to doesn't make people stop and think. When I look at a design I like, I don't think, "Oh the use of proximity is immaculate!" Rather than adding the picture of an elephant on the page titled zebra, put it on the page titled elephant because that way users will understand the correlation. Brilliant! 👏 It's a blend of common sense and evolving trends which became expectations. Over time trends evolved, certain things caught on, people recognized the patterns and now they expect those patterns. It may not always be "better," but it's expected by somebody who is familiar; on the other hand, if you take someone from Japan, whose design expectations are completely different, they'd be lost. Does that mean their design is bad? Japan is certainly an outlier, but it's an interesting question - there's a great video on this called "why Japan's internet is weirdly designed". Anyways - I appreciate your video and honesty.

now i want to break all these principles and make the worst website possible... as a test 😂

Im going for B CRAP, easy for me to remember 😂

You put contast instead of contrast

I guess what you're sharing here is B CRAP 😂

This is junior advice. You must be careful to caveat your advice based on your experience level and the goal of the website examples you are showing, especially ones from brands, agencies, and designers who are far more experienced than you. You have to learn these rules before you can break them for greater reasons, some of the sites did that here that you aren't experienced enough to talk about.

I really wish you didn't use profanity in the videos so I could recommend them to my high school web design students to watch.

Surely this is only a problem when children are the target audience. Adults can hear a few swear words while without being distracted from the content they are watching just because of profanity.

I'm a beginning UI/UX designer, and while I did find some of your tips useful... you make these very dogmatic statements as if you are the creator of web design. A lot of your videos are expanding emphasis on bad websites and spending very little time going in depth on the good ones. I've watched 2 of your videos and have decided to move on to another channel because there's little information about HOW to do the methods. I need strategies, solutions, and answers. Not criticizing and critiquing.

@Videosuser

I agree, a lot of dogmatic statements without consdering context and telling why. I also think that a few of the bad examples(the "misaligned" white text on black background interface, for example) are breaking a design rule on purpose since the rest of the design follow the rules, it's not simply about being unique, but about creating visual tension and saving some space. The text is presented so big that is not harder to read at all.
