Hello! I am wanting to start my own gig doing graphic design. I started a Fiverr account, but I'm only getting spam messages on there. I feel at a loss on how to get started. Does anyone have tips for doing graphic design mostly online? I live in a rural area and I'm not sure many people in my community would seek my services. Thank you!

Does anyone know of a good place online to look for UI/UX designers who specialize in Figma?

Question! I just moved(transferred) to another team of my company and received new title, graphic & creative services. I was a senior graphic designer at the previous team. What do you think about my new title? I know that title is not a big thing but why I feel like my title is downgraded here… Good thing is my jobs here at my current team are what I really wanted to do. This is amazing. I love my new team and people here! Super healthy working environment! But just curious about the title.

Hi all
I started out as a graphic designer. Worked for about 4yrs in different roles. Then i started a digital design role for 2 yrs and then made my transition into ux. i have been in a ux role for 5 years. But i want to steer my career towards something more creative. Like in 5-10 years I wouldn’t want to be a specialist or a ux director. I d like to be an art director or creative director. I love branding & marketing but also product. Would love something that allows me to do both?
