I am proud to say I will be serving on the 2026/27 Figma Education Advisory Board. Thanks for having me @figma. I can't even say how much it means. I am one of 17 educators selected from all over. Also proud to represent my home at @ShawneeState. Great school! Go Bears.

To be clear, this is not a promotional but advisory role, as I understand it. Nor am I a Figma employee. My views remain my own.

The new tools are amazing but design is still about choice, taste, and craft. If we give those away, it's fine but, we are no longer designers, we're consumers.

Too many folks are taking the stance that Dan Mall should be the portfolio review martyr. In any kind of relationship, value is created for everyone, not just the one giving. Would everyone have felt the same if the request was "Hey Dan, nice video. Will you wash my car?"

What Dan did offer was more useful: How to ask. A bit gruff maybe, sure even, but I can't imagine how many of these types of requests someone like Dan gets. And the request made no acknowledgment of the effort the request would require.

I guess it is interesting to talk about. Here I am talking about it after all. But let's not be so quick to vilify someone over a generous post because it is a little blunt.

You can get pretty far with a brand just by going all in on a font and a color.
