ONE TRILLION SERVED
Nearly a decade ago, our co-founders Dan and Rich launched Dribbble as a simple side-project to ask their designer friends, “What are you working on?” Over the years, more and more designers joined Dribbble, a community was formed, and millions of shots of design work were shared.
It’s hard to believe that Dribbble, once a small website for designers, has grown to become an inspiration destination for hundreds of millions of people — now a go-to resource for discovering and connecting with designers and creative talent around the globe.
For years, we’ve had a counter in our footer counting the number of pixels uploaded. Today that number became one digit longer when we surpassed a big milestone – 1 Trillion Pixels Dribbbled! 🎉
The Dribbble design community has come a long way… But we’re just getting started. Dribbble is growing faster than ever. Just this last year, Dribbble more than doubled its user base and more than tripled the size of our internal team, allowing us to build even more of the features the community has been asking for.
We’re on a mission to build the world’s best platform for designers and creative professionals to gain inspiration, feedback, education, community, and job opportunities. We can’t wait to share with you some of the exciting things we’re building.
Most importantly, we are humbled and honored to have become a catalyst for the design community to gain exposure for their work. Most of the Dribbble team comes from a creative background and has a huge affinity for design. We all feel very grateful to support the design community, to provide the network where the world’s top talent share their best work. We intend to continue this tradition of building something our members love — to elevate the profession of design in the community and to the world.
We’re looking forward to the quadrillion pixels announcement one day.
Until then, keep on dribbblin’!
Oh… In case you were wondering, the lucky 1,000,000,000,000th pixel shot belongs to Jason Johnson from Spanish Fork, Utah. The lucky dot was in his shot titled DP, showing various explorations for a rebrand for Dermot’s, a pub in his company’s Dublin office. Congrats to Jason, who should expect a fun prize coming to his door soon. 😎
