A NEW STANDOUT PROFILE PIC IN 10 MINUTES!
What? Even an elementary school student will be able to make this himself!
I know it's not a perfect one and maybe there are a few things that still can be improved. Though, it's just a social media profile picture! and yet, we're spending time doing it anyways. Luckily, It's easy peasy so it wouldn't take so much time!
I have been seeing this trend where people will have their photo with plain one color background. As much as I think that's too much photoshop and all, I gotta admit, it's quite standout. Somehow, this morning I woke up and felt like, dang, I suddenly just want one like that myself.
A few free apps involved and I would love to share those killing tools with you!
Selfie!
This is the skill set we all have and believe me, any phone camera will do. I use Google Pixel 3a. 2 versions I got, the regular one and the portrait where the app blur some less important things in the photo. That's not necessary though, the next app we will be using will do all the work.
Remove Background
Not sure if you still draw dot by dot in Photoshops or other photo editing apps? I was dumb for a while until I found this free background removing app. https://www.remove.bg/ - Upload, click remove background and the app do all the work in seconds like magic! We got the .png file we need and yes, we love.
Canva it!
There's no way you don't know or not be using https://www.canva.com by now. Canva makes everything easy! Logos, profile pictures, channel arts, magazines, resume whatever you name it!
I wore red headband and put on red lipstick for a reason. I want it to contrast with the yellow background I had had in mind so here we go. Filter the photo and maybe adjust some lighting and contrast a bit.
Lemme know what you think! Honest comment how you like it and how it could be improved is muchly appreciated!

Nice! taking the photo editing to another level Mo, are you? :D <3
haha not really - all basic tools :D
Looks pretty high-tech to me! LOL
Well done. Good stuff. The background removal is pretty good. Most of the ones I've used have been rubbish.
This is the best by far. I made this for my UX profile pic jaja. All the UX people have this kind of pic for some reasons so I'm starting to blend it bwahahaha
I am not an expert in new technologies and applications! And in these times when reality is so questioned, I'm one of those who admire people who dare to show themselves as they are, without touching up the environment or faces. But the exercise was cool.
This is more like art thing to make profile pic standout not to actually make me look prettier jajaa - but I got what you mean! :D
