THIS IS WHY I LOVE @Framer , MAKING THIS WAS FUN
ITS FREE 😁
Just built the most cinematic image reveal in Framer. 🔥🤯
Introducing Ember Reveal: ✨ Hover to trigger a realistic, organic burning effect 🖼 Eats away the top image to reveal the one beneath 🧬 Powered by advanced SVG turbulence filters (no heavy videos!) 🎨 Glowing embers, charred edges, and custom burn speed
Pure creative coding magic. Who is adding this to their next portfolio? 👇
Sir, can you please explain this?
I did everything I could to make my templates rank. I tried new marketing tactics, even put one template at $2,000 just to get people talking and bring visibility to my profile.
My templates were climbing 3 spots every single day. I put effort, time, and energy into getting those sales.
Then one big creator complained, and suddenly everything changed.
All that work — gone. A massive drop overnight.
Is this what you mean by “making the chances equal” between creators?
Because honestly, this hurts. It feels like I spent months building something brick by brick, only to have the ground pulled out from under me.
I’m genuinely pissed off and disappointed. I just want to understand why the work we put in suddenly means so much less.
I think I’m finally burned out.
I spent almost 2 years learning Framer, trying to get my templates accepted, getting rejected, improving, trying again, and eventually getting my first templates live and making my first sales.
And I was doing all of this while studying at university and working on the side.
Then the Marketplace update happened, and everything changed.
I still kept pushing. New templates, new ideas, components, marketing, giveaways, posting every day, trying different strategies… but lately it feels like I’m fighting the same battle over and over again.
The hardest part isn’t getting 0 sales.
It’s realizing how much time, energy, and hope you’ve put into something, while trying to balance university and work, only to feel like you’re back at zero.
I’m honestly exhausted.
I don’t know if this is the end of my journey with Framer or just a break.
Right now, I just know that I need to step back and breathe.
Maybe sometimes you don’t need another strategy.
Maybe you just need to rest.
When you make a template $2,000 so everyone talks about it, then drop it back to $79.
RIKA is now $79. Don’t miss it. 🔥

@Framer you better feature it
Al Hasani jumped to #30 in just 3 days! in the Photography Portfolio category🎉
Thanks so much for all the support, everyone. ❤
Hopefully, it'll get Featured soon.
Believe it or not, I spent 17 minutes playing the crossword game in my own Al Hasani template while developing it. 😭
Imagine how much time your visitors will spend on your portfolio. 😂
It's a game-changer if you want people to stay longer on your site—and yes, longer engagement can help increase visibility too.

I was tired of photography templates that all looked the same.
So I designed one inspired by newspapers instead.
