Water sure is nice. Seems like you have a healthy life going there.
I would suggest a photo with more color and contrast however that draws a bit more attention.
Good Luck!

Thanks for your input @quinneaker. I was looking at the background earlier and it is kinda hard to read my profile message. So, I'm going to experiment with a few additional backgrounds and see what they look like.

nikolina (65) · 8 years ago

Hey, I was using ctrlq.org
You don't have to Register, just upload a picture and you'll get your URL.
For me it worked easily and I had no problems with this site.
I hope it works for you!

stonemaiden (48) · 8 years ago

Thanks nikolina. The site seems to give a lot of options: what app did you use? Was it a trial?

nikolina (65) · 8 years ago

I did not use any app, I just used their website. Here is a more specific link:

I saw this earlier today and changed mine. I'm sure there will be more customization options in the near future. It's a great way to keep people going back to their own blog because it feels like it's theirs.

Definitely, you can paint a fuller picture of yourself by choosing to customize or not.
