What are Design Requests?
A Design Request is a feature we have for our subscribers to ask for designs that they want or need but can’t find in our catalog. You can just let us know and we’ll make it for you. And it doesn’t cost extra at all. It takes around 5 business days to be done! The number of Design Requests you have per month depends on the subscription you’re on. You can check our blog post with further information on this and we'll be here if you have any other questions!

Can I edit my Design Request?
Of course! Design Requests come with an editable file which you can import into an editing software to modify it as you wish! And we encourage it! You can modify the text, the colors, the elements, the effects, etc! The more unique you make the design, the better.

Are Design Requests exclusive?
Vexels is a design platform, not a Design studio, which means that sometime after you receive your request, the design will be published in our library, and other users will be able to download it. In the case of logos or branding, since these are really custom or have a unique concept, it’s usually the person who made the request the only one who uses it. For this reason, logos are made with a different name but keep the text editable for the user to change later on.

How long do Requests take to be made?
From the moment you send your design, allow 1-2 weekdays for it to be received and processed. After that, your request will take between 5 and 7 business days to be completed, subject to demand. Once the design is done we’ll email you the link for you to download it.
