Customize the photos in your Google+ profile

Colin Welch has put out a great guide on how to customize the photos on your about page.  I tried it out on my profile and it worked pretty well.  I did it somewhat like Jill Whalen, with four photos of my face and one with a logo.

It’s a fun little trick!  Colin has built a very nice guide on how to do it, includes a Photoshop template to speed the process along.  If you don’t have Photoshop (like me), you can still do it yourself.  The individual images are 125×125, and there is a 13px gap between each one.

If you build a cool one for yourself, leave a comment and show it off to the rest of us!

    I used your pixel numbers and made a quick one for my profile. You can find it here:

        Thanks!

        I thought I would add something that goes together with my usual nick – Oceanwatcher. I took the picture the day after a storm close to where my parents live in Norway.
