Hey friend, I noticed you don't have a profile pic yet. Perhaps that is intentional, but I mention it because I personally had trouble figuring out how to make one early on. Also because I tend to discount accounts without a photo since there are so many spam/automated accounts it there.

I could not get any of the third party steemit img sites I'd heard about to work, so I do this:

Make a new post
Insert your desired image into the post
Copy the image link that appears in the editor
Go to your profile settings and paste the link there! Then go back delete the draft post.

See ya around!
