I started making website forum “signature” images over a decade ago, using Microsoft Paint, if you can believe it!
Through trial and error, I’ve learned a lot of different skill in Photoshop in the last 10+ years, and now I’d like to give back to the Steemit community.
So… I’ve decided to create some custom blockchain-themed cover images that anyone can use. My first edition: The English Premier League:
I’ve started with what most folks consider the Top Six in the league, and I've listed them in alphabetical order. Obviously this list is very subjective, and everyone thinks their own team belongs in the top six.
As such… if there are any other EPL teams you support, and would like me to create a custom cover image for that team, just comment below and I’ll do my best to create something for you!
I’ll be releasing other leagues and teams in the coming days, so stay tuned and pass the word!
