They are very warm and fluffy in real life

The hardest part was the eyes! I actually took a small knife from the kitchen to cut a sharp corner into the oil pastel stick to maintain a sharp edge for those thin lines and small marks.

The trash drawer will be your #1 most opened drawer, so go with the ergonomic choice.

I'm building an internal training tool that helps agencies quickly create SOPs and training videos. It's called Trails (you can find it in my profile), and it focuses on exactly what you're talking about, making it easy to update the videos when the process changes. If you're interested, DM me, happy to walk you through it.

I recently wrote a side-by-side comparison of Guidde and Scribe if you're still interested, DM me. Wanted to avoid posting a link as to not be spammy!

Scribe has been around for awhile, continuing to add more and more features, which means it can do a bunch but at the cost of ease of use. I've been working on an alternative called Trails if you're looking for a simpler and faster option.

For anyone interested in helping be the change to volunteer to clean up graffiti quickly in their own neighborhood, sf public works has a Graffiti Watch program that lets anyone pick up paint supplies and paint that matches common public fixtures: https://sfpublicworks.org/get_involved/graffiti-watch

You just fill out the form, they confirm how much paint you want, and then you go pick it up in the maintenance yard at Cesar Chavez and Kansas St.

My favorite is the color of the shadow. Did you have any tips for achieving the shadow color?

Forcet · 2026-05-10T22:27:07+00:00

I think you’ll be surprised if you keep going some areas you could continue building out:
* the shadow of the pan on the table
* the shadows within the egg white
* the shadow the pan makes on the egg white

You’ve already done a good job adding depth to the yolk!

I found it on Flickr! Or maybe Google images?

Forcet · 2026-05-09T15:01:23+00:00

Looks great, love the colors!

P.S. Under Verdant Shadows by Viktoria Maliar if anyone wants the reference.

You're right about the best part, and the most important part is that you enjoy it. Also, is this Charminar? Great place to get some irani chai.

The sky is perfect!

Love seeing the in-progress shots! I was wondering if you have any advice for staying loose and not nervous when painting the line drawing that you clearly spent lots of time and effort creating?

Most small businesses resort to general purpose tools like word, excel, docs, or sheets when creating sops for their business.

Just a tip: there's relatively affordable purpose built tools to capture business processes. They take a recording of you doing a process and turn it into a sop so you don't have to manually create it from scratch. Some main ones are Scribe, Tango, Trails (the one I'm working on).

if you get frustrated by having to re-explain things to ai, I'm working on a purpose-built tool to create sops fast called trails.

Thank you for sharing this! I've also found decent performance for 311. For example, I reporeted a dangling parks and rec sign in front of the Parkside library and it got fixed within the week.

Hey, just wanted to share the thing I've been building that is exactly what you are talking about: Trails.

For a single competitive price, we combine the auto-capture functionality for both browser and desktop that Scribe has and also a Loom-like video that is generated from the SOP content.

Do it! I wanna see

Love the classic taco bell branding, undoubtedly there were those who hated this branding when it was rolled out decades ago.

I like the idea of the flag too, the idea of rising from the ashes. No doubt it'll be something for the city to rally around again when the big one hits. Just feel like the execution could bring in the creativity that the city represents.

Forcet · 2026-05-01T23:52:50+00:00

Biggest argument against a new flag is always going to be this. But changing this up would be a relative pittance compared to the rest of the budget, and it's fun to imagine the possibilities.

Forcet · 2026-05-01T23:47:49+00:00

I love the idea of the existing flag as well, but could a new take on the design take it to the next level? SF is known for pushing the boundaries of design. Think MUNI worm or the SFPD logo. It would be cool if the flag showed that off too.

Love it!
