Absolutely loving Scale. The team made an illustration for me that, to me, is very specific to my products. If they keep making a new illustration a day everyone's going to have an amazing image. Keep up the awesome work!
Hey Joe, Thanks for coming over and sharing such a warm comment. @suvansh_bansal (and me) enjoyed making the illustration a lot. Do reach out again if you would like some help :)
Hey Alex, Thanks for coming over my friend :)
I have been working on this since we spoke in April. Of course, not full-time, but redid the tech a bit. Then zeroing on the design style and finding the right designers to work with were the toughest parts. Of course, when you have co-founders like @suvansh_bansal everything becomes easy :)
Hey Hunters!
I've been working so hard on this all year. So, want to cap off 2020 with my biggest product launch - Scale! π ππ π
A. What's Scale?
Simply put, Scale offers a new high-quality, free illustration each day. You can use it for any project of yours - commercial or otherwise. All this without any attribution!
It is entirely built on NoCode tools. If you are interested, you can read about it here: Link.
B. So, why build Scale?
As an entrepreneur, I have found custom illustrations to be super costly. Moreover, quality visual designers are tough to find!
Now, you can do all of that for free - keep your two kidneys intact π .
C. Wait, there's more
You can:
1. Customise illustrations to your brand identity easily, using our color picker.
2. Choose illustrations of a particular gender, using our filter.
3. Know when the next illustration will be added!
D. Quality, quantity & variety
1. We are nearing 100 illustrations on Scale!
2. We have covered various industries:
- Recruitment
- Remote work
- Team collaboration
- Travel & lifestyle
E. What's next
I really hope you like it. I also have a lot more planned such as:
i. Adding skin tones options
ii. Releasing free illustration packs grouped by industries
iii. Multi-color illustrations
So, do bookmark Scale π !
Thanks for creating such a valuable resource and sharing it with the community for free. I guess I found your illustrations couple of days in reddit, bookmarked it. Congrats on PH launch and keep going!!
Great product!! And a really useful one. Can I use it for any purposes? I would like to add some of the images to my tool where people can search and insert in their project. Does the license allow this usage? Also do you plan to introduce any search API to make the resources available for other tools to use?
Lot of great questions.
1. Can I use it for any purposes?
Absolutely - as long as you don't sell the illustrations yourself or make a competitor of Scale, there is no problem at all :). Use it for any project - commercial or otherwise.
2. Does the license allow this usage?
You can redirect them to Scale. If your service is specifically to find illustrations, then feel free to add a link to Scale. But downloading Scale's illustrations and hosting it on your website to be consumed would be a problem.
3. Also do you plan to introduce any search API?
Definitely, but possibly not in the very near future :)
@karthik_sridharan@jaga_deep cheers! But I'll research into the correct official license and update on Scale by Today. I'll personally ping you here too!
@karthik_sridharan tysm!! My tool is a video creation tool...It would be great If I can integrate the SVG images into the search form in my tool. obviously users can go to Scale and directly download the image and upload to my tool for their project but I want to make it easier for them to enable direct search inside my tool itself. I can do it with attributiion too if required. Let me know if that is possible. Thank you.
Hey @jaga_deep, Seems like a very genuine use case and we would definitely like to support this. Would you mind mailing me at karthik [at] flexiple [dot] com? I will confirm the usage?
Hey @anna_rogers3, Indeed. It has been an effort put in by quite a few people in the team. Started quite early this year and has taken a lot of blood, sweat and tears to develop it.
Just in case you are interested, I built Scale on no-code tools - you can read about it here: Link.
I love the customisations & features. These illustrations are really high quality. Can't believe you aren't charging for them at all. Do you plan to have a paid illustration pack in future?
Just when I was contemplating hiring a designer to get a few illustrations for my website I see this π Lovely website & illustrations - you just saved me a lot of money!
Woahh! Good to know our timing was good Ellen :). Do reach out to me on Twitter, in case you aren't able to find a particular illustration topic you want. Happy to make one for you π
Hey @jakecreps, There are infinite number of color changes you can make on every illustration! You just need to use our colour picker on the top-right of the page and keep changing the colour to your preference. You can see this being demonstrated in the gif I've included above here on this page :)
Please let me know if I've not understood your question correctly!
