This is great, and I really, really love the inclusive-by-default approach.
- Double_a_92 8y ago> inclusive-by-default Except for people with pale skin... I guess.
- fredley 8y agoAll the skin tones are mid-brown, there is nothing darker and nothing lighter, though this would be an easy thing to change when using the library. Interesting how you single out pale skin.
- hnaccy 8y agoThere's a darker woman on the landing page and in the animated section there's a paler figure and couple darker.
- detritus 8y agoAs a blue-skinned ginger of Scottish descent, I'm unsure why his observation has to be 'interesting' - if by 'interesting' you mean to imply racist?
- Double_a_92 8y agoIs it racist to mention that "White" people are excluded, especially when diversity seems to be so important to people? I bet that if the skin color palette was more biased towards lighter tones, there would have been some bigger outcry...
- coldtea 8y agoWell, since all are "mid-brown" the brown skinned people are somewhat represented. Paler skin (whites, asians, latinos) is totally missing, so not really interesting how the parent singles it out.
- aetherspawn 8y agoI noticed this when I tried to make a diverse scene on the online tester .. could only make a scene full of people with similar darker skin tones. Not that diverse at all.
- mromanuk 8y agoCome on guys, literally took me like 15s to change the colors and make pale skin, I think you are missing the point here. https://www.figma.com/file/cS2mfgCHEtB9k0XpbZFCNkdK/humaaans-pale?node-id=0%3A1 https://www.figma.com/file/cS2mfgCHEtB9k0XpbZFCNkdK/humaaans...

- danijelb 8y agoWould you react the same if the set came only with pale skin and you had to do the customization for darker skin?
- whatshisface 8y agoIf we were all from Nigeria, yes, but since most of HN is US and Europe it would likely go unnoticed. People from black majority areas in the US would also notice; the general point being that everyone is comparing it to whatever their every day experience is.
- mromanuk 8y agoI will answer with a solution :) Actually, would be really cool to add some code to this, improve the website, with a small UI where you can change: color clothes and skin tone using some presets. edit: grammar
- danijelb 8y agoI agree
- coldtea 8y agoWhere inclusive == everybody is brown skinned?
- fredley 8y agoI noticed the use of wheelchair users, and the different skin tones used on the landing page. I hadn't looked into the actual resources so hadn't seen that they are not in fact offered in a range of tones. Oh well!

- house_atr 8y agoAnd if it was white skinned you would be birdbox.jpeg but now that we live in a world that doesn't cater to you always, you light up like a pinball machine. cUrIoUs!
- xanth 8y agoYeah, inclusive how?
