Your profile gives you the opportunity to create your own space in Pixabay. It will represent your portfolio and whatever information you want to share with the community.

Here are a few tips how to get the most out of it:

1. Upload a profile image
Adding a profile image makes your page more human and is a great way to put a face to all the amazing art in your portfolio.

2. Add your details
The community is a great place to connect with other members. By adding details to your profile such as where you are based, which language you speak or how old you are is a good start to find other members to connect with.

3. Add description
Sharing a little about yourself in the About section is a nice way to tell your story. Here are a few ideas that you could add:

  • Who are you?
  • How and when did you start your art?
  • Do you have a specific style?
  • Is it a hobby or are you doing it professionally?
  • What are your interests? What inspires you?
  • What would you like to learn?

4. Add Paypal
To make sure visitors that download your art can give you a little recognition and make some coffee donations it is important to add your Paypal account in the settings.

5. Add social media profiles or website
Do you have social media profiles or a website? Adding this information to your profile allows visitors to also find and follow you on other channels.

6. Add collections

Collections are a great way to showcase your own work but also show what inspires you or what you are interested in. Add public collections to share this with other members. This post gives you tips on how to create a collection.

L🤣L!

This post is titled "How to get the most out of your profile", and it seems Jessica takes things literally: there is nothing in it, her profile is complete blank.. Hilarious indeed!

Hi
There is no information about me in my profile, and no space to put any
How do I personalise my account?
My image is already there but someone else has asked if I am me or if they are me

no names

very puzzling

You can fill out your information via the settings page.

You can fill out the "About me" or the "First Name" or whatever else you want to add.

Hope this helps!
