[... explanation ...] At the moment, I don't know if there is such urgent need for additional elements and resources. At least a "press pack" featuring some recent screenshots, the logo, ... might help.

[... URL discussion ...] Well, the reason was to better distinguish between "visuals" and "utility". I'm not worried with regard to the abbreviations, since the "Design" is the most important information here. But the translation abbreviation is a good point.

So I don't insist on adding /Visual Design/ or /User > Experience/ to the URL. And there are also differences; e.g. something like the user feedback tooling is something rather related to User Experience.
