As a guy who struggles with design -- which entirely my own hangup -- I was exited when I clicked on this article. However, I've got to say, <i>reading</i> about design doesn't do much for me -- and I feel like I'm the posts target demographic!<p>If we're talking about design, I'd argue that "show" is a few orders of magnitude better than "tell." This goes double for when the article begins talking about color usage.<p>> 3. Colours is the single most important thing of design<p>The most important thing!? Then why does this section sum up to<p>A) Use good colors
B) Don't not use good colors.<p>This is a section ripe for a couple of visual examples, man! Are certain color combinations the equivalent of Comic Sans?<p>>Just a tip here: not all palettes work well for a presentation. Firstly, some palettes have too much contrast.<p>I have no idea what that means. Is Black on White out? That's about as high contrast as you can get -- and that was my go-to. Could a guy get an example of too much contrast? Too low contrast?<p>Help a guy out! :)
