Two badges. Two very different ways to earn them.
Sparker says this person designed something people actually wanted. Crafter says this person can actually make it. Neither is self-declared.
✦ Sparker

Creator badge on your work, your designs in front of everyone browsing, and a share when a Crafter sells what you designed.
Two ways in

What we need to see — have it ready before you start
- A. Your actual workshop. 2–6 photos of the place where you work — bench, tools, machines, work in progress. Stock photos and renders don't count.
- B. A video of you making something. A link (YouTube, Bilibili, Google Drive…) to a clip of your process, start to finish is best. This is how we know the hands in the photos are yours.
- C. Proof you sell or show your work. Links to an online shop, marketplace listing, Instagram, Xiaohongshu — anywhere a stranger can see what you've made and what people say about it.
A person reads every application and opens every link. Approval usually takes a few days. The badge can be withdrawn later; your posts stay, the badge doesn't.
