🤖 My new favorite AI app - Runway

🚀 Midjourney can help you with UI/UX inspiration.

I am the CEO and founder of a fantastic web design and marketing company. Our team spends their days creating custom websites, custom graphics, and advertising campaigns from scratch. Any designer knows that inspiration can be hard to come by some days.

When the going gets tough, we find ourselves scrolling Dribbble for hours, looking for inspiration. Then, I stumbled upon something in Midjourney.

While these graphics aren’t finished UI options or landing page options, they provided the spark for our new company website.

Follow my Twitter thread and check the ALTs for the prompts to create these designs, icons, and landing page mock-ups. Change the prompts as needed.

I could actually do this all day. I want to see what you create!

⭐️ My big thought of the day: I wouldn’t be here without horrible bosses.

Looking back at my career, I realize I had some genuinely horrible bosses. I reflect on the times I was not paid for working past clocking out, not given raises when I earned them, not given bonuses I earned, not given promotions I deserved, and overall treated like shit.

I picture so many of those moments, and yet, here I am…the CEO of a recently acquired company. I could stay on and continue building my dream while de-risking and ensuring my wife is set up. What a wild ride.

Thanks for the push, goobers.
