Did anyone else apply a “header” to their Twitter account today? I came across the change when adjusting my background early this morning and then a colleague sent this article to me a little bit ago: http://blog.hubspot.com/blog/tabid/6307/bid/33603/twitter-rolls-out-cover-photos-how-to-add-yours-today?source=Blog_Email_Twitter%20Rolls%20Out%20Co

What do you think of the change? How do you think this is going to impact those using Twitter for business?

wife did, now she needs to post some pictures to fill in the blanks.

For those interested I made a template. Also i placed where the image lands in case you want to be creative.

@mvicioso @geoffrey-gordon @alexandrabriggs I haven’t yet but I’m planning to. I LOVE this club and all the help and support each of you gives. SME Rocks!

I have a photo uploaded for the header but will probably change it when I have time. It’s just the front stairwell here at home; a piece of it anyhowsen:   https://twitter.com/SuperEB

Now though, none of my photos show in the photo stream. I will have to move any I want anyone to view to twitter or use instagram now, right?  I think so; read that in one of the recent articles. OR I could just wait until I tweet again a location or something and upload images I want to show.

This change is OK, I’d like it better if it were a slim photo at the top of the page and not have a text overlay.  It looks odd to me.  What do you think?   

@dianebianchi @supereb Yes I have put a Header on the multiple accounts I manage and my personal. I like having the image but I do not care for the text overlay. It limits what you can do with the images and, given you can’t adjust the colors right now, sometimes makes the profile information illegible. 

@dianebianchi great. If you need anything help let me know 

@geoffrey-gordon

Where did you see that, b/c when I log into Twitter they recommend 1200 x 600.

@rich-brooks i hear you, have a look at this twitter account  https://twitter.com/Etsy the header size fit those dimensions perfectly, sorry perhaps i should have been clearer.

I learned of the new header feature on the other thread Eileen mentioned. I like the header and it is yet another fun customization feature to show off our unique design style, but I wonder how many people actually view our profile past the little teaser pop up that shows our bio and our latest tweets. Thoughts?
