I can do that.. It's very easy to show how to apply a lightsource and the brushes I have.

Actually, about the brushes search in deviantart and in Google once you collect all your brushes you copy the . abr files (brush files) and paste them to the specific folder of Adobe Photoshop. You know where you installed the Ps. In there you will find folder named brushes you paste them there. Re-open Ps search for them and you will find all these I have but I have a lot it took me 10 hours to collect them all.

    • I didn't use AI for this, I used untitledui, they have ready templates and blocks. And no, it's not shadcn, untitledui has their own design system.   For example, for the hero I used an iteration of this https://www.untitledui.com/react/marketing/hero-header-sections/hero-abstract-angles-04
    • A misaligned badge or a heavy shadow is not evidence of AI. If anything, small inconsistencies are usually proof of years of manual modifications layered over an old codebase. AI-generated UIs tend to be overly clean, symmetrical, and generic because models optimize for visual patterns, not long-term product evolution. What you’re calling “AI design” is actually a very common style in older gaming communities: strong gradients, metallic buttons, glow effects, dense information blocks, and high visual emphasis on rankings/votes/sponsors.    Also, good UI is contextual. A toplist platform for MMORPG servers is optimized differently than a modern SaaS dashboard or a portfolio site. Here, visibility, CTR, sponsor highlighting, fast scanning, and information density matter more than minimalist whitespace trends from Dribbble. And honestly, if the UI was actually generated by AI, it probably would’ve looked more modern and generic — not like a platform that clearly evolved piece by piece over many years 😄   The funny thing is that a lot of these new “AI web designers” can’t even write 20 lines of CSS by hand without ChatGPT holding their hand 😄    They see a shadow, a gradient, or a rounded border and instantly scream “AI-generated” because their entire understanding of design now comes from prompting tools instead of actually building interfaces from scratch. And honestly, @Elfo was right — your own website looks far more AI-generated you built it with Tailwind/shadcn-style aesthetics and probably Next.js ,m i right friend? you built it with Tailwind/shadcn-style aesthetics...  You literally scanned the entire site just to find a tiny shadow behind a button as “proof” 😂 Real developers know the difference between a handcrafted project that evolved over many years, and a generic AI-generated template pumped out in 30 seconds.       Anyway, no hard feelings. Different tastes, different opinions 🙂
    • If it is AI-generated, you used a really shit model. Even AI wouldn't be able to generate obvious errors like the badge misalignment.   I do find it funny, however, that out of everyone to accuse you, Splicho, who used AI to fully generate this https://nimeracp.com/, is the one to talk.
    • You’re free to dislike the design, that’s subjective and totally fine. But calling everything you personally don’t like “AI generated” is not really an argument 😄 The funny part is that the layout constraints you’re criticizing are actually intentional design decisions for toplist platforms — ads, rankings, visibility blocks, sponsor placements, and high information density. This isn’t a portfolio landing page or a SaaS dashboard where you can leave half the screen empty for aesthetics. Also, AI-generated UIs usually look generic, over-animated, inconsistent, and impractical for real long-term usage. Our platform has been evolving for years based on actual user behavior, server owner needs, CTR optimization, and functionality requirements. You may not like the visual style, and that’s okay. But confusing “I don’t like this design” with “this was made by AI” just shows you’re judging emotionally instead of technically. Anyway, appreciate the feedback. Good luck to you too 🙂
