Good morning, Steemians! I FINALLY figured out HOW to do my avatar photo and background photo!... It was so exciting to me that I had to do a short blog on it incase any other Minos out there need help on this subject. I used https://steempeak.com/ as a "go to site" to help me accomplish this. It was easier for me to find EVERYTHING I needed to do with my profile information from the "settings" tab. From the "update profile" settings, I was able to upload photos in which this site AUTOMATICALLY (love anything that is automatic on Steemit) created a URL from my selected photo which I was able to "confirm" the action to make it my avatar photo...
...and did the exact thing to produce my background photo as well...
Well, as you can see, I really enjoy the Steempeak site, and I encourage anyone wanting the Steemit "gig" being a little bit simpler to use to try this site out for yourself... you'll really enjoy their beautiful interface on this site also. Good day, and many Steem prosperity to you all!
