Mioya typeface too 🥺🥺
We just added PELENGE to @joinmissa. Better typeface for a clean writing experience. Thank you @UgoTheGoGo.
Fixed..Don't be angry since you do not understand the concepts of playing cards..
What the actual hell? This is just pure racism.
Why is the Nigerian women's team being represented with their faces upside down?
I'm not a graphic design expert, but even I can tell that this is terrible design. It's honestly disgusting how black people continue to be portrayed and disrespected like this.

Your parents won't see you grow old. Your partner never knew you as a child, and your children won't remember you young. You are the only person who witnesses every version of yourself. Take care of yourself, value yourself and love yourself. You are your lifelong companion.

I literally had this conversation yesterday evening 😂
Between the naira-to-dollar exchange rate, expensive subscriptions, and the sheer number of tokens needed to generate designs, iterate on ideas, or edit even basic videos; using these tools consistently is a serious financial commitment.
And, the few Nigerian creatives who can afford to spend hundreds or thousands of dollars on AI don’t add this context you just stated: it’s expensive. And that can make it seem like the average designer, illustrator, or video editor back home has the same access.
I’m old school. I still push my rectangles in Figma and Adobe Illustrator, manually ease my anchor points in After Effects, while AI warms my eba and explains the rewarm value of egusi soup.
A win-win 😂🤝
“I no longer use figma or adobe” can never be a flex to me.
Where’s the craftsmanship? Where’s the passion? I understand the need to get things done faster but I feel like we’re gradually losing the human touch that makes design special.
At some point, you have to ask yourself: why did you choose this career path as a brand/graphic designer in the first place?
I’ve spent over $1k on AI credits this year alone. I actively use AI, experiment with new tools, and keep up with the latest trends in our industry. So this isn’t coming from someone who’s against AI.
But I can tell you one thing: I still feel alive pushing those rectangles around, one pixel at a time whether in figma, adobe, or whatever creative tool gets me there.
There’s a certain joy I feel in actually making things and obsessing over the little details, while putting a piece of myself into my work.
Efficiency is great, but I never want to lose the feeling of being a designer.
