What you can order

This is the broad design page — everything visual except the logo specialism:

Just need a logo?

If your project is specifically a logo or brand mark, our logo design services page is the narrower, focused option with logo specialists and source-file delivery. Use this page for everything else — the broader design work around your brand.

How to choose a designer

Design is visual, so judge it visually. Look at each seller's portfolio and pick someone whose existing work already looks like the style you want — far easier than describing a look in words. Read recent reviews, especially from buyers who ordered something similar, and check the delivery time and revisions. On a bigger job, order one small piece to confirm their style before committing to a full set.

Write a brief that gets it right first time

Design revisions usually come from a vague brief, not a bad designer. Say what the piece is for and where it will appear, the exact dimensions if you know them, and the text that must be on it. Point to two or three examples you like and note what you like about each, and list your brand colours and fonts or attach your logo. A designer can only match a style they can see, so a couple of reference images are worth more than a paragraph of description. The tighter the brief, the closer the first draft.

Deliverables, formats, source files and pricing

Check each gig for what's included. For print — flyers, posters, business cards — ask for a print-ready PDF at 300 DPI with bleed; for screens, a PNG or JPG at the right pixel size is fine. If you'll want to edit or resize the design later, request the editable source file (layered PSD, AI or Figma) and confirm it's included, since not every gig bundles it. Delivery time and revisions are stated up front, prices start at $1, and there's no platform commission.

Custom design vs templates and stock

Not every job needs bespoke artwork. A lightly customised template is cheap and fine for a one-off social post or a quick flyer; custom design is worth paying for when the piece represents your brand and will be reused. The same applies to imagery: stock photos are economical, while custom illustration makes you stand out. Tell the designer your budget and where the piece will appear, and they'll recommend which fits.

Keep a consistent look across everything

Design works hardest when it's consistent. If you order graphics regularly, give every designer the same brand basics — your colours as hex codes, fonts and logo files — so a new flyer or post matches everything else you've made. Better still, order a simple one-page brand sheet once and reuse it as the brief for future gigs. Reordering from a designer who already knows your style keeps everything looking like it came from the same place.

Fonts, images and licensing

A design is only safe to use if the pieces inside it are licensed for your use. Ask your designer to use royalty-free or properly licensed fonts and images, and to tell you the source of any stock photo or icon so you know your rights — especially for commercial and print use. If a specific font is central to your brand, mention it up front, as not every licence allows commercial use. Getting this right avoids takedown requests or having to redo artwork later.
