I really like it! Think it might be a tad better if you omit the profile photo on the right (make sure your image is 'no-repeat').

Nice work!

Hi Heather,

You have a nice design. I would add a description of your business or services. This is a great way to extend your limited space from the Bio. Add your website URL and if you'd like you can include some of your other social networks.

I'm your newest follower

I like your as well as a few others that I have seen, and am wondering how do you create a wall to put on your twitter page? Are the twitter templates, or a link that I can go to? Please help, thanks!

Also how do you link twitter to VAF?

I make my backgrounds using Photoshop. With dimensions of 1800 by 1000. This way users with bigger monitors do not see a blank spot to the far right. Here are just a few I have worked on if you need some ideas: http://premierevirtualoffice.com/soc...er-backgrounds

If you don't have photoshop you can use Gimp. This is a free software. Hope that helps

Thank you for the feedback.

Believe it or not, I created the background in PowerPoint.

I created a full page slide in PowerPoint. I used my photo (which I think I am going to remove) and my logo (without the business name) radomly pasted in different sizes.

I saved the slide as a .jpeg and then I uploaded it to Twitter and choose the option to tile my background.

I have been wondering the same thing.. I would really like to utilize social media to make myself more visible and if it is not too hard, offer it as a service down the road. I have no webpage or code experience. How hard is it?
