A wonderful article on UI elements and how they are formed

Hello 🙂

I've just stumbled across this incredibly well written and explained article on UI elements and how they are designed to imitate light and shadow and 3D forms. I'm not sure if you've seen it before, but it is SO good, I wanted to share it:

Extremely interesting articles. Thank you very much.
And my favorite sentence: "...I don’t think this is a long-term trend here. The subtle simulation of 3-D in our interfaces seems far too natural to give up entirely."

You are both most welcome, and thank you also for the thanks. Yes, these articles are superb indeed. I wonder if the team who re-designed MR forums had just read them? 😛
