Hi guys,

I’m Eddie from Accra, Ghana. Great to join the community, loving it already. Seeing tons of inspiration on the platform. I’m a beginner and still trying to find my bearings with the interface and how to start my first project.

I’m a trained journalist and looking to switch professions. Not sure if Figma is a good starting point but from the videos and tutorials already watched I’m confident learning the tool would be an added advantage to my skillset. I hope it would be a fruitful journey.

Hey all!

I’m Liz, and I work for Thesis, a crypto venture studio. Based in Georgia in the US 🇺🇸 I’m a UX/UI specialist & product designer for Keep, a privacy layer for the Ethereum blockchain. I switched to using Figma from Sketch about a year and a half ago. Really liking the new features that the Figma team has introduced since I started using it.

Andrew_Colclough

Hey awesome folks!

My name is Andrew Colclough, and I am a UI Designer and Developer at Arcoro. We are building a org-wide Svelte component library and design system, and recently began working to integrate Figma into our Design Tokens flow.

On the illustration front, most of my work has been with traditional mediums like ink and watercolor, but ever since we started kicking the tires of Figma for work, I have gotten hooked on what is possible with the tool.
I tested what could be pulled off with layer blending effects by attempting to recreate my first beloved video game: Moon Patrol (Atari 2600).

No exaggeration, the ease of pulling something like this off has me totally psyched out of my mind! So yeah, new to the show, but so happy to be on the train.

C_Robertson

hi All,
I’m a paid user with serious account / billing issues and I can’t get a response from Figma for love or money (other than their automatic emails promising I’ll hear from them soon). After a month of trying repeatedly through their online contacts, I clearly need some other way to get support. Anyone know if there a phone number to get a human being to notice me?

Hello Figma community! 👋🏽 My name is Ben and I am a junior full stack Web Developer in Oregon, USA. I have focused more on back end development in the past, but have recently been hired to work on a full stack application that requires UI/UX design. I came across Figma while surfing my bookmarked dev channels on YouTube. I’m looking forward to learning more about Figma and UI/UX design. Also looking forward to learning lots from the Figma community.

Cheers!

Hey everyone! My name is Jon Moore and I’m the principal product designer at Innovatemap, a digital product agency in Indianapolis, IN, USA.

I’m passionate about design systems, mastering tools, and helping new designers grow into their craft.

I’m a Sketch convert, and to teach myself Figma, I decided the best way was to recreate some common UI patterns. Many months later, I have hundreds of components, page layouts, interaction patterns, and visualizations. I recently completed The Design Encyclopedia, a comprehensive design system that goes far beyond basic components like buttons and text fields.

Take a peek at the full Figma file here.
