Signal over noise.
Vossiam isn't just going to come with a template.
I'm building a complete documentation and guide system to help you go from template โ customised site โ launch as smoothly as possible.
From launch checklists to step-by-step guides, I'm trying to make the entire process feel intentional and effortless.
And honestly, I'm building the documentation to a level I haven't really seen in a Framer template before.
Still working on it. Stay tuned. ๐
A little look at a section from Vossiam. ๐
This is actually an information-rich section, but I didn't want all that information competing for the user's attention at once.
So I used progressive disclosure.
Each card gives you just enough information to understand what it is. If you want to go deeper, simply hit the + button and more information is revealed.
The idea is simple:
Give users what they need now. Let them discover more when they're ready.
Instead of overwhelming users with information, the interface gradually reveals it based on their interest.
It's a small interaction, but I think it makes a big difference to how the section feels and how easily users can navigate it.
Not your regular About page, huh? ๐
This page has been built with patience and an almost obsessive attention to detail.
And once again, you'll notice the Vossiam illustrations.
The entire illustration pack will be included with the template, along with a guide showing you how to create more in the same visual language.
So you're not just getting the illustrations โ you'll have the tools to make them truly your own.
Still refining. Still polishing. Vossiam is getting closer.
A section from the About page of Vossiam.
One thing I wanted to do with this template was give customers more than just a collection of pages.
The illustrations you see here aren't just static assets. I'm also putting together a system guide that will show customers how to create their own illustrations using the same visual language.
So if you need more illustrations for your project, you're not limited to the ones that come with the template.
You can create as many as you need while keeping the visual style consistent.
That's the kind of extra value I'm trying to build into Vossiam. โจ
Blog pages are officially done. ๐
One more milestone checked off for Vossiam.
On to the next.
For the past 5 months, I've been building what I hope will become a flagship template in its category.
Last month, I discovered another template using the same name I'd chosen for the project.
That one discovery triggered a chain reaction.
FlowOS became Vossiam.
Then came a new logo.
Then a refreshed color identity.
As I revisited the project, I realized many of the UI fragments I'd generated with Google Stitch could be pushed even further. I spent the next couple of weeks refining and redesigning them.
And once I started improving those, I couldn't stop. Entire pages were redesigned, interactions were polished, and countless small details were revisited.
It's funny how one unexpected change can lead to a much better product.
Vossiam isn't a template I'm trying to finish as quickly as possible. I'm taking the time to craft something I'd be genuinely proud to put my name on.
It's getting close.
Until then, I'll keep sharing the journey with the Framer community.
Stay tuned. ๐

You can now repost on the Framer community๐
Framer continues to improve the marketplace experience after the recent update.
They've now introduced curated sections like:
โข Featured Picks โข Fresh Finds โข Trending Templates โข Free Templates
I took a closer look at Fresh Finds, and one thing stood out.
While it showcases new templates, not every newly published template appears there. It seems the section is curated by the Framer team, highlighting what they consider the strongest recent releases.
I actually think that's a great approach.
It helps maintain quality while giving exceptional new templates a chance to stand out in a marketplace where new releases can quickly get buried.
That said, because it's curated, there's naturally an element of subjectivity. Some high-quality templates may not make the list simply because they weren't selected.
Overall, I think it's a positive addition.
To me, it sends a clear message:
Build something genuinely good, and Framer will help people discover it.
Do marketplace rankings actually translate to more sales?
I often see creators celebrating when their templates climb the rankings, while others get frustrated when they don't.
I used to assume that a higher ranking automatically meant more sales.
Then I came across a post from a creator who mentioned that one of their products was ranked highly, yet it wasn't translating into the sales they expected.
That got me thinking...
Is this a common experience, or was it just an exception?
I'd love to hear from creators who have actually sold templates.
Has your marketplace ranking had a noticeable impact on your sales?
One of the hardest decisions template creators face after finishing a product is pricing.
It's difficult because there are so many variables.
Buyer psychology. Perceived quality. Competition. Target audience. The value your product actually delivers.
There isn't a perfect formula.
One thing I've learned is this:
A lower price doesn't automatically lead to more sales.
It's easy to think, "If I price my template at $12, more people will buy it."
Sometimes that's true.
Sometimes it isn't.
A very low price can also signal that the template isn't as polished or valuable as other options. On the other hand, simply increasing your price doesn't guarantee more sales either.
I've seen creators mention that raising their prices improved sales, while others have found success with lower-priced templates.
That's why I don't think pricing should be based on fear.
Price your template according to the value you genuinely believe it delivers.
If you want to charge a premium, give people a premium product.
Go beyond the template itself.
โข Clear documentation
โข Setup guides
โข Figma files (where appropriate)
โข Walkthrough videos
โข Resources that help customers launch faster
โข Ideas and inspiration for using the template
The more value you provide, the easier it is to justify a higher price.
I'm curious...
What has your experience with pricing been? Have you ever increased or decreased your price and noticed a difference?
Been refining the "Get Started" section in Vossiam.
I genuinely think micro interactions are one of the most underrated parts of great web design.
What's one interaction you always appreciate on a website?
It's been almost 3 weeks since Framer changed how the marketplace works.
I'm curious to see how it's actually affected template and component creators.
If you've been selling before and after the update, drop one letter in the comments:
A โ Increased sales ๐
B โ Decreased sales ๐
C โ No noticeable change โ
No explanations needed unless you want to share more.
I think this could be useful for newer creators like myself to understand what the marketplace looks like today.
I was actually planning to make a post about what I thought was the new Framer community update where older posts could keep resurfacing.
For the past few days, every time I opened the community, I kept seeing the same posts over and over, while newer posts became increasingly difficult to find.
I logged in today, and it looks like it's been fixed.
Maybe it wasn't an update after all. Maybe it was just a glitch. Either way, good fix, Framer. ๐
I still think there's room for a better long-term solution that helps great posts stay discoverable without making it harder to find new ones.
Just noticed this update in the Framer community where older posts can resurface if they had strong engagement.
I remember thinking, "It would be great if Framer had something like this."
And... here it is.
It's a small feature, but I think it gives good discussions a second life instead of letting them disappear after a few days.
Great work, @Framer ๐
1st of July, 2026.
Welcome to a new month and the second half of the year. ๐
If the first half was bad, this half can be better.
If the first half was good, this half can be better.
If the first half was great, this half can be even better.
Whatever the last six months looked like, lock in and do your best work.
Here's to the second half of the year. ๐ฅ
More illustrations created with ChatGPT for Vossiam.
The more I use it, the more impressed I become
You're probably sleeping on ChatGPT's image generation.
I created these illustrations for my Vossiam template using ChatGPT, and I have to say, I'm genuinely impressed.
What stands out to me isn't just the image quality. It's how natural the workflow feels.
Instead of trying to engineer the perfect prompt yourself, you can simply explain your idea in plain English and ask ChatGPT to turn it into a detailed prompt. Then generate the image from that prompt, refine it through conversation, and repeat until it feels right.
Like every image generation tool, you'll still need to fine-tune some results.
But the quality it can produce is seriously impressive.
One thing I especially love is how well it understands design direction. You can provide exact hex color codes or upload your brand color palette, and it does a surprisingly good job of generating illustrations that stay true to your visual language.
It's become a valuable part of my workflow while building Vossiam.
