RE: Avatars are here! Here's how to set them using steemit.com -or- the CLI

in #steemit8 years ago

I cropped a photo to be about 300x300 px and it came out pretty well. I have no idea what JSON metadata is or how to use it. LOL

Sort:  

"JSON metadata" is a technical thing, it is not important for most users, but sometimes really helpful for people which would like to know more and how things works.

In general, you have your steemit profile page here: https://steemit.com/@merej99
If you will change in this address steemit for steemd, then you can see how your profile looks from technical perspective:

https://steemd.com/@merej99

This is for looking only, right?. atm reading into CLI Wallet but I get the feeling I need to know much more about code languages. I'm pretty much illiterate with code.. suggestions? I'm really up for some schooling :)

You don't really need to get into it unless you want to. If you're not logging in to Steemit using your posting key only, using your password to update your avatar image isn't too much different. If you're interested in learning more about the Steem CLI though, I made a guide to get you started: https://steemit.com/steemhelp/@pfunk/a-learner-s-guide-to-using-steem-s-cliwallet-part-1

I see, thanks for your reply. Will look into your post!
