The bugdroid is now in 3D lol
So we got away from the 3D style just to go back to it?
Not to mention how that had an android generator app thingy around 2.2 but after a short time stopped updating it then pulled it from the store.
Not seeing the improvement. Looks like change for change sake.
Looks like change for change sake.
GUIs swing back and forth between 3D and flat ever since Microsoft released Internet Explorer 4 for Windows 95 which introduced flat GUI toolbars. That watercolor Office release had the look planned for WinXP but Apple released Mac OS X with its (for that time) super realistic 3D icons and GUI widgets and Microsoft wanted to counter that. In fact, most such changes were initiated by Apple and were never about functionality.
I love it but also if they ever get rid of the mascot I’m going to cry worse than getting rid of the desserts
It is my understanding that the “bugdroid” was not designed to be Android’s official logo, the artist released it under a Creative Commons license, and Alphabet has adopted it as a mascot. Even if Google deprecates its use, it’s still out there.
Don’t see why they couldn’t just spew iterative inclusive designs over the 2D one, this is kind of badly animated and has a 00s vibe to the concept. The disco ball-skinned and spiky mohawk examples are downright repulsive designs
I don’t like the capitalization of the letter A
It looks… Wrong for some reason
