How to choose by task
Design sites do one of three jobs: make (MiriCanvas, Canva, Figma), learn by looking (UI Bowl, What Was IT, the logo libraries) or supply materials (Noonnu, Irasutoya, color tools). Decide which one you are stuck on first and you will open far fewer tabs.
A social image or thumbnail due today
Start from a template in MiriCanvas or Canva and change only the copy and photo. MiriCanvas is stronger for Korean-language layouts; Canva has more global styles. A template used as-is looks like everyone else's, so change at least the colors and the font.
Designing an app or web screen
Do not start from a blank canvas. Look up the same screen (sign-up, checkout, empty state) in UI Bowl and What Was IT, put three to five side by side, and note what they all share. That shared set is what users already expect. Then draw it in Figma. Award sites such as CSS Design Awards are striking but often heavy and unfamiliar to operate, so they suit brand pages more than everyday products.
Making a logo
Logosystem, Logobook and Logggos do not make a logo for you; they help you avoid collisions. Search your motif in Logobook to see whether the shape is already common, check the usual colors of your industry in Logggos, then deliberately move away from both. Looking different is not the same as being registrable, so search your trademark office's database before using a logo in business.
Check these before you use anything
1. Commercial-use scope
“Free” does not mean “free for commercial use”. A free font may allow print but not logos, and template tools mix elements that are licensed for commercial work only on paid plans. For ads, sales pages or monetized video, read the license text of the exact asset and keep a screenshot.
2. Borrow structure, not artwork
Screens and logos on reference sites belong to their owners. Order, hierarchy and spacing ratios are fair to study; illustrations, icons and copy are not yours to move. A workable rule: look at three sources and take only what they have in common.
3. Color must stay readable
Body text needs a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 against its background (WCAG AA). Test a chosen pair with real copy on a phone at low brightness.
4. Print differs from screen
Screens mix light (RGB) and printers mix ink (CMYK), so near-neon colors print duller. Extend backgrounds 2–3 mm past the trim line (bleed) and keep important text at least 3 mm inside it.

FAQ
Are these all free?
Most are free to start, with different terms. Reference sites are free to browse, template tools split free and paid plans, and print services charge per order. Prices change, so check each site before paying.
Can I use fonts and images found here in ads?
It depends on the asset. Noonnu shows a per-font table for print, web, video and logo use, and Irasutoya is free up to 20 images per work. Read the license text of the exact asset before commercial use.
What is the line between reference and copying?
Structure (order, hierarchy, spacing) is fair to study. Moving illustrations, icons, copy or logos is not. Look at three or more sources and take only what they share.
Where should a beginner start?
For a social image, start from a MiriCanvas or Canva template and change the colors and font. For an app or web screen, review three to five examples of the same screen, then draw it in Figma.
