Steemit Hack: Uploading Profile Photos

in #steemit8 years ago (edited)

If you have a profile picture you want to use but it's not available via any link, you can do this quick hack to make it available immediately!

Steemit asks for a link to your profile picture, but the picture you want to use might not always be available on the internet. Let's say you have a profile picture you want to use, but it's only on your Desktop.

  1. All you have to do is go to Steemit.com and click "Submit a Story."
  2. Then you just paste the image directly into the text area (yes you can paste an image directly into the text box -- bonus Steemit Hack if you didn't know that haha).
  3. Steemit will automatically upload it and then provide a link once it's done.
  4. Copy that link and use it for your profile picture!

What other Steemit hacks do you have that makes your life easier?

I find it you can also use a profile link to your linkedin profile pic, too. It's what I used and won't have to worry. Your way a good one, too. a blockchain profile pic.
