Webflow offers support for WebP now. Please let us export this format directly from Figma! (Especially since your competitor Sketch allows it natively).
Yes, I usually use Sketch for this too. I have the plugin, but it’s not great. I use the plugin here and there. My workflow requires that I have Sketch with Figma. WebP images are vital for fast-loading websites and web apps.
Figma will play animated gifs when in viewing a prototype.
It would be good if Figma would also support this for animated WebP and animated AVIF image files, which are a lot better than .gif files.
A lot of times I exclusively need to export in WebP. I have used TinyImage, which is quite good, but have you seen their pricing?
Plugin pricing and the “eternal subscription” model has become obscene. While I’ve seen other larger app-like plugins with a higher cost, everyone should know that this plugin actually costs more than the entire Figma platform itself minus FigJam, both monthly and yearly (as of today December 2, 2022).
Monthly $19 x 12: $228
Figma monthly $15 x 12: $180
Yearly [$14 x 12]: $168
Figma yearly [$12 x 12]: $144
The other issue is the AUD conversion, which means if you’re in the US you’ll pay more than the listed price. I made the mistake of signing up for TinyImage in August (when it was $15/mo) and was charged $15.87 and $15.62 for August and September (this may be Paypal-specific but regardless, it does occur), and have canceled.
So yes, let’s get WebP as an export format (with a quality/compression value).
