Elemental for FileMaker Released

Hi all, 
 
Today I'm happy to announce the release of Elemental for FileMaker. This is a free fully unlocked solution containing some cool user interface and design stuff that I hope you find useful and can incorporate into your own solutions.
 
You can grab a copy now at https://www.elemental-fm.com
 
In Elementals first version you'll find the following:
 
Avatars
Over 20 API integrations with avatar generators. These are uniquely generated based on a name you provide so you are guaranteed almost a unique avatar in each instance.  Great if you want to add a bit of imagery to your contact lists or any other lists of records. Heaps of customisation and options to choose from. Integration is simple, just copy and paste the relevant script into your own solution and hook it up to your own container field where you want the image to be stored.
 
Placeholders
Much like avatars, placeholders are dummy image services of various types where you can auto generate a placeholder image. This is great if you need some sample imagery for things like products or inventory, or to indicate the desired size of an image to be inserted.
 
Icons
Need an SVG icon for your button bar? We have over 7,000 icons to choose from, all have been modified and are FileMaker ready.
 
Animations
Animations add a bit of life to your FileMaker solution. We have both GIF and SVG animations (using SMIL). GIF is for all around compatibility, and SVG's are if your computer can handle it (most macs can, windows maybe!)  Really cool if you want to show something while a script is running to keep the user entertained, sometimes it's the small things that make a difference to user experience.
 
Gradients
Browse over 300 different gradient swatches to get inspired and use the colors provided to build your own in FileMaker.
 
Other cool stuff
The solution is unlocked so you can explore the layouts and find out how it all works. You might also uncover some hidden gems in there such as html5 color pickers, double range sliders and SVG to PNG conversion all without plugins
 
I really hope you enjoy elemental and find something useful in it which you can use in your own solutions you build.  Elemental will always remain free but if you would like to say thank you with a donation then you can do so on the website. This helps to ensure continued development of elemental in future.
