No new components and it’s not able to on par with glideapps previous version. I don’t like to even login for a month or two.why? ---

There were many major releases in March. - New integrations/actions: Push Notifications, Open AI, device info, Pexels, Azure, Discord, Google Cloud, Google Maps, Radar, Yelp, Asana, DocsAutomator, Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Tag Manager, Slack, Clearbit, Docusign, HubSpot, Intercom, Microsoft Outlook & Teams, Mixpanel, Short dot io, Stripe, Twilio, ZenDesk. And I skipped a few. - New components: horizontal card/grid collections, checklist collection, location, link, action row, contact, signature, checkbox, rating, progress bar, audio. And in the past 2 weeks: Query computed column More is surely on the way. It’s always fun to have these shiny new features to play with. I must say that a lot was released in the past 8 weeks and I’m personally just trying to keep up. ---

Ofcourse these are ok but I’m not dependent on these.but there is nothing on the design side.A look n feel thing is missing. I’m convinced myself to wait for upto June to tune something on the design side,that will make people to have fun on the design side too. But thanks bro I didn’t know glide posted these many features other that some 3rd party integration things. Thanks for updating… ---

On the design side?! Don’t hold your breath. > [@Meet the new Glide Apps star2](https://community.glideapps.com/t/meet-the-new-glide-apps/59429/123): > > Indeed. Good way to start slightly_smiling_face Glide’s positioning is #nodesign: builders need not worry about design maintenance nor staying up to date, Glide will take care of it because Glide will actually do it, do it better and because builders have better things to do in life. I wholeheartedly support this. It makes zero sense that when design trends evolve and the rounded corners of a button go from 3px to 8 (random example), millions of UI teams around the world get busy like busy b… ---

I’m not asking for more than this.just a basic design look n feel. This is posted someway back,I’m expecting these changes enough to see glide in a better design feel. ![IMG_20230515_164316](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/7/7/7765a13bd22fdb05a1e46ea2a6b27a125966e33a.jpeg) ---

Personally I think the design is 10x better these days - mainly due to containers and image handling. My client was super impressed with their recent Sports App refresh, which I delivered free of charge. ![IMG_5507](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/3/0/308227d11d5846b28f6378111e9407cee2d1f2da.jpeg) ![IMG_5508](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/0/1/0141b97692ac378194a77d1f159d44bde807cb91.jpeg) ![IMG_5509](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/1/6/1605023da6d06095eb3d345d926d3bd9af8da6c7.jpeg) ![IMG_5510](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/d/7/d7c264b2b63d4e59ab0cc7d580db8229736569d1.jpeg) ![IMG_5511](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/5/8/58e3e9fa3de2ead41da070f09b80ded8585e30eb.jpeg) ---

There is no bad design but only bad designer. It’s all about skill, choices, and the artistic vision that shapes the outcome. I enjoy working with constraints which allows me to work my creativity. Here’s some design made possible with Glide! ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/a/9/a94563a7070b90b926680f1d288d293d98c33a02.jpeg) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/f/3/f38fc212037588dda840e687e461030230da2efe.jpeg) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/1/4/147bd98f15f4cea12686cc63038a4722ca8472f3.png) > “Out of the depths of boredom, creativity emerges as a captivating companion, transforming the mundane into the extraordinary, and breathing life into the canvas of our imagination.” If you every need help my inbox are open. ---

I didn’t arrive using the old glide, but I found out about the customization of the login screen. sendk possible to put background image. this would be something that should already be difficult to apply to the new Glide. ---
