Behance – Creative Portfolios

Search icon position Instead of putting the search icon on top left corner which is very uncomfortable to reach also when you have a 6'7 smartphone, directly put a big search bar like google on top. after search, leave the search bar there. when scrolling, make it disappear and reappear it again when slightly scrolling up.

Boring but useful This app is useful for people who want straightforward ideas. I Myself, loving to draw unique things, downloaded this app thinking that I would get some funky and unique things to draw, but everything there was digital art. No paper, no pencil drawing tips, nothing. On top of that, all of the digital art was really basic. The for you page had nothing to do with things that I recently viewed or saved. Uploading posts or creating a profile is much more difficult than I think it needs to be, which is really annoying. The search bar basically has barely to no helpful use, because when I search a type of art up, other random things show up. In conclusion, if you could make this app less strict and more creative, that would be much better.

Why would I only want to swipe backwards? Go to the search tab, pick a random project, try to swipe from the right or left edge to the next or previous project. You’ll find only swiping right works. Why would anyone only want to go backwards to a project they intentionally skipped and not also be able to go forward. One can swipe backwards and SOMETIMES swipe forward but not often enough for it to be considered working

Gone downhill for years Behance used to be the place artists could not only display their work to potential clients and promote to the general world consciousness and could expect for many eyes to see it. But in the past years, Behance no longer fights to stay on top of the design industry, allowing newer platforms to get a lot more popularity and traction in the design space. 90% of the income of this platform should be spent to retake the #1 creative spot and to target and drive traffic from business owners, entrepreneurs, company creative departments, startups who need logos and brand development, ad agencies needing overflow work, and more. Stop pocketing all the ad and subscription money generated from our creative work and INVEST that back into getting out work seen more, as it used to be. Now you’re just riding the coattails of previous years and the reputation of years past. Make this platform competitive again with the platforms who have soared past us here. Get back in the game. If you do that, you will also benefit from the restored popularity of the site. Not just squeezing whatever juice you still can until it dies completely. We creatives deserve your investment back into our work. Only then can we all rise together again to top prominence. Bring back Behance again. It’s still the best display platform for us to upload work to, but if no one is seeing it, what’s the point? I used to get work here but it’s dried up entirely and is only good anymore for our own vanity to feel like we can show new projects that no one sees anymore. Please. You owe it to us for making creative be work on your platform and we no longer get anything for our efforts. The only ones making money on this site anymore are you, the platform hosts, on ad revenue and our subscription. We need to benefit too or it can never sustain itself. Invest some of your profits back and into us creatives to retake the lead again in the creative space. Please. It’s been dying far too long. Target those who invest in design and creativity back to this platform. We all win from that. Not doing that, everyone here involved will lose. Including Adobe for not reinvesting into driving traffic back here.

Gotta get!!! Amazing app, I get inspired at looking at the pros do their magic and easy posting for me to share with other colleges. From graphic design, photography, illustration etc. One of my favorite apps to use and tie in my artistic work. Must get. Highly recommend for any artists. See you there

Can’t redirect to projects from email links I used to love this app. However, after the app overhaul, the experience has been abysmally horrible. Things I missed the most: 1. Able to click on individual images in a project and have an “isolated” viewport where I can pinch and zoom in and out on the images. This super basic feature is gone entirely. 2. Any web link you click on will not direct you to the correct project page. It’s like the app does not know how to parse the request and has been completely severed from web services. It’s really annoying as I read my weekly newsletter on my Monday commutes and I can’t have a laptop out on a train! Dear app team, I’m sure you have the right reasons to justify this overhaul, but please can you guys get the email link redirecting working? Talk to your other departments and figure out what parts are not talking with each other!

Where’s the beef? I mean jobs… Can’t believe there is still no integration of the job listings in the app. This used to be a great resource but the site and app fail to improve while the job listings get more and more inundated with junk job listings. I’m sure adobe isn’t throwing enough money into Behance just like they care not about Adobe Portfolio, but it really is degrading what used to be a great reputation. The wolves are at the door and adobe is busy making apps pros don’t even want while letting useful resources continue to drag.

It’s alright I would like to be able to do more things in the app like I could on the website. Also, it’s a pain when I open a link from discord, which opens up the in-browser, which jumps out to chrome app, login, and jumps out again to behance app, to relogin again, but to the homepage instead of the page i’m trying to view.

For Creators This Is Home Whether looking to share your work or searching for inspiration for new projects, Behance is an essential tool for every creators toolbox. I am inspired by the work of others but also appreciate the feedback received on my projects from others.
