RE: STEEM SCHOOL EP 2 - HOW TO PERFECTLY FORMAT YOUR STEEM POST!
My friend, thanks for an excellent and in depth article, however , I have a problem. You're assuming a certain knowledge base before you start.
'Step 1: The Thumbnail
The thumbnail must be 800px wide and 450px high to be perfectly displayed in the Steem feed and in your post. I always add two frames to my thumbnail to get more visibility on the Steem feed!
I use Photoshop to create my thumbnails and I have created a template so that I just need to add the text and a graphic and be done with it, that takes 2-5 minutes and I don't need to create a new one every time!'
- How do I know how many 'px' is my pictures are ? and if theyre the wrong 'px' how do I change them ?
- Whats a frame ? how do I create one and why is 2 better than 1 ? Can you give us some examples please ?
Sorry about the simple questions, Im 51. If you ever need to know about registers in a Z80 processor or develop a database in cobol, Im your man :-)
1.You need to edit the size of the picture and the size is usually displayed there. Where those options are depends on your Software.
2. A frame is a border around the thumbnail. I just add 2 because it looks better.
