Making a header image for your Aportfolio is a simple way to personalize your site.
Before you start, you may want to have a color palette picked out to help coordinate your
portfolio and give it a nice visual appeal. I like to use Canva to do my photo editing,
but you can use GIMP, Photoshop, or a similar program if you like.
Set the dimensions to 779 pixels wide. The height depends on whether you want a thinner
header or thicker. The maximum is 200 pixels high.
Next, upload your photo or open your photo, depending on what your program is. Then drag
it into your workspace. You can now edit the photo show you would
like. (time lapse probably) You may want to add text such as welcome or
your first and last name. You may need to reference your color palette to add a color
to your text or other elements. When you are finished, download your image
or save it as a png. go to your portfolio and under the portfolio
tools tab choose settings, then click customize. Upload your new header here. Make sure you
save once you are done! Now you can see, we have a new header image.
