Does anyone know who created and maintains nostr.org?

GM, Nostr fam. Playing around with a new banner today, a bit of an itch to do some more pixel art. This running animation is much harder than I expected lol, not perfected yet, but you gotta iterate. No, it's not AI. Individual pixel pushing, which is quite suboptimal for a workflow compared to nicer apps like Aseprite, but I'm using Piskel (FOSS). - 24 Frames - 4 Layers - 6 Colors - 10 FPS Screenshot of Piskel:

Biggest life advice? Enjoy the process, nothing is promised. More fun art for @V E C T O R (read the disclaimer at the bottom)

Picked up a new side project focused on privacy, decentralized compute, and ai accessibility. Their name and concept was inspired by Starcraft, so I wanted to work on the Brand Identity Guide and incorporate some of the old GUI elements. Pretty happy with the general direction, but it could probably still use some more refine and polish. Not sure if the contrast on the template is clear enough, having issues with true color on both of my monitors. Any one interested in checking out the full Brand Identity Guide and open to share honest feedback, send me a DM. Looking at you, fellow designers... 🤣

Appreciate your contributions to Nostr, especially Marmot Protocol 🫡 To an epic Q2!

Orphan Design up for Adoption 【 K 】 This design wasn't selected for the final version, but I grew fond of it. I'm quite happy the way things turned out. In any case, it's open to finding a new home and purpose.

That's what I'm talking about! Year of the Horse and we are saddled up and ridin' on the storm! 🐎⚡ View article →

Daily Design - Symbolism Using the same forms and shapes to try to create an iconic figure. Abstract, as usual. Never stop being inspired by the design in Neon Genesis: Evangelion.

Who should I be following on Nostr? Looking for an optimized feed here.

Massive overhaul, look at all those improvements, commits, and contributors. 💪 White Noise is steady crankin' and leveling up. View article →

Love this, kinda want to see more philosophical discussions around privacy. It sometimes is a bit much to only argue over objective protocols and methodologies for better privacy and security. Let's argue over the principles now 🤣 Just kidding, it really is about all angles... there is not really one without the other. Great piece @Hans Koning "If you have an apple and I have an apple and we exchange these apples then you and I will still each have one apple. But if you have an idea and I have an idea and we exchange these ideas, then each of us will have two ideas." View article →

Files are nice and organized, labeled, and the original design files have been included. This repo is not just for Zapstore or projects with Zapstore listings that may want to use the badges, but I will start to update it with other Nostr design resources. For now, if there are any questions about rights to use, please contact Zapstore or the respective project owners. I just want high quality assets easily accessible to the public. I'm happy to extend this to the community, if anyone would like to update or add their resources here, we can make things easier for designers, developers, and teams. Just let me know, submit an issue or a PR or message me. Hope you all enjoy them! Thanks again @Zapstore team for this epic experience and platform for Nostr users. @franzap @Pip the WoT guy View quoted note →

GM, Nostr! On behalf of @V E C T O R I wanted to give a special thanks to @Zapstore @franzap for such professionalism and efficiency for listing Vector. It honestly is one of the nicest UXs for an app store I've seen and really sets the bar for the Nostr ecosystem. Hats off to everyone involved. I went to search for some design assets to work on some announcement graphics and help promote Vector's listing on Zapstore and found the Zapstore GitHub with some design resources. I noticed some of them could use some polish and possibly upload the .svg versions for higher res and scaling across different resolutions. I saw the neat Zapstore Badge with "GET IT ON ZAPSTORE". Really love this. So, I decided to make some other variations both with text and colors. Specifically, I added the "Nostr" Purple that Zapstore uses on its website to keep branding consistent and also the Bitcoin orange. At the bottom is the Vector version for us, but anyone is welcome to use it. If you guys would like these assets, please let me know and I can find a way to export + organize them nicely in .png and .svg formats, then I could submit a PR or whatever works best. I'm more than happy to go through to process to export them and have them ready for production, but I will stay on standby in case you have them, don't need them, etc. just to be efficient with time. Thanks for everything you guys do. A rising tide lifts all boats.
