Google+ Banner Pictures for Your Profile

Google_Plus_BannersIf you are looking at your Google+ Profile and you are wondering how people are getting those cool picture banners across the top, I found a couple of new FREE tools that are easy to use!

G Plus Pic works well for creating a banner on your profile, but it’s also nice if you want to do something fun with your profile picture too! You upload an image of 750 x 150 pixels to the site.  Then you can decide exactly what part of the picture you want to use – this tool is much easier to use if you want to manipulate, scale or move one section out of the frame, or make it more prominent.  With GPlusPic, you upload the images individually, and in order to your profile until it looks like you want to. The first time I did this – I think I was going to fast, because I had trouble getting them in the right order.  Sounds easy – just give yourself a few minutes.

Gplus Banner Maker is really simple!  You find a picture that is at least 690 x 125, and you upload it to the site (top of the page, in BLUE), then, you get something that looks like the red airplane below.  It’s also nice that you can save your work, and link to your website from here!  Share it on Facebook, or Twitter.  I did a plane, but if you have a beautiful listing, why not create something interesting, a focal piece so to speak.  Show off your great photography skills!  http://www.gplusbannermaker.com
