I build @framer templates for solo founders.
Not just beautiful every layout has a UX reason.
Building Meridian Arc this month → follow along.

Danny Studio was already selling.

That's exactly why rebuilding it felt wrong.

The safe move is to leave a working product alone. Ship the next thing. Don't touch what people already pay for.

But "good enough" is the easiest place to hide.

So I reopened the parts no one had complained about. The quiet things a review never mentions but a visitor always feels the spot where the flow stalls, the click that isn't there.

Rebuilding something that works is a strange kind of hard. There's no bug to point at. You just have to be honest.

Danny Studio v2 is now live on the Framer Marketplace. If you already own it, the update is free.

When did you last redo something that already worked and was it worth it?

@its_lee_fizi Thank you Fizi

Photographers your website is quietly working against you.

Your photos are the product. But most portfolio sites treat them like wallpaper: beautiful to look at, impossible to step into.

The gallery runs out. The momentum dies. And not a single photo is clickable they look like doors, but they're just decoration.

So I built Danny Studio the opposite way:
— the gallery never ends, so the feeling never hits a wall
— every photo opens its album, so the images become the way in
A site that lets people fall into your work, not just scroll past it.

@uiuximran Thank you !!

The portfolio I'm building? I'm going to give it away.
Not a stripped down copy. The exact one I use.
Every instinct says don't.
Your site is supposed to be the one thing only you have.

But I keep landing on the same place:
I'd rather 500 people start from my site
than have a "unique" one nobody ever sees.
If it's good enough to give away, it's good enough to trust me with.
That's the whole pitch. No case study needed.

Going up on madebyMal soon. Free.

@FolaOjuri Great story.

[Lam @Mal19119]

@Matthias_Oel @konrad_designs Nice story

[Lam @Mal19119]

Thanks for your story, it's great. I'm switching my job after 8 years to UX/UI design. Two years ago I started learning design. Had a baby. Still working to pay the bills while learning design. It's been hard these days. I try to send my resume everywhere but still not. Then I see my opportunity with making websites. Some days were easy, some really hard. But until now, for two years I've kept pushing myself. Got first sale and first commission on my design. Growing on X, everything still at the beginning. But hoping five years later things will change.

When my girlfriend (now my wife) worked as a nanny, I was thrilled to see what her employer was up to.

She worked at an advertising agency and created campaigns for some of the world's biggest brands, like Lay's and Mercedes.

That's when I decided I was quitting my job as a real estate agent and becoming a designer :D It was 2013.
I simply dropped everything, sat at home, and learned Photoshop, asking my wife's employer for advice.

The excitement was so intense that I worked day and night, and I had to borrow money from my future mother-in-law until I found permanent employment.

A few months later, after sending out over 100 resumes, I received an invitation to an interview at a large advertising agency.

At the interview, they said they might give me a chance, but I had to learn Adobe Flash (anyone remember that, haha ​​:D).
I just replied, "Give me a week."
It took me about 11 days, but the internship was mine. I fulfilled my dream. I worked there for several years and began this amazing design adventure.

I remember that time with tears in my eyes. xD

@uxmateja @michal_gren Thanks for sharing this :D
