First impressions, designed to last

I've been a graphic designer for about five years. Initially it was just a hobby, but in recent years I've been taking it more seriously whenever I found it to be a more useful skill to develop as I began to take web development more seriously. Around that same time, I had put together a social media page, experimenting with various forms of content to see what clicked.

As a full-time graphic/web designer, I wanted to find a way to build my own presence in the digital space that would give me more leverage regarding projects I was no longer interested in taking. It wasn't until people began asking me if I could use the style of work that I was making for their own personal photos, photos of their pets, company photos, etc. that I began to consider whether or not I should see how many people would be interested in such a service in the growing population of people working to develop personal brands online.

I realize the concept of "personal branding" has been around ever since the dawn of social media, but I hadn't ever come across a service that provided unique, personalized profile photos that had no bounds with regards to customization. The way I see it, if you're working to become a more recognizable figure in the social media space, your profile photo is essentially your logo.

That’s where Pixter comes in: I transform your favorite photos into one-of-a-kind digital designs, offering a unique and memorable way to present yourself online.

I believe the process should be as easy as possible, that's I've taken the time to develop a frictionless 5-step process to get your personal brand off the ground.

Step 1: Upload Your Photo

Upload the photo you want designed. PNG format is preferred, but JPEG is fine if you don't have PNG.

Step 2: Choose Your Color Palette

I've put together a wide range of carefully crafted options. Or, you can include your own personal color palette in the notes when you checkout.

Step 3: Select Your Background Style Package

This only applies if you have selected the "Headshot Only" option for your personalized profile. Package 3 comes with up to 45 variants.

Step 4: Additional Details

Provide any additional info that you may want me to know regarding your images in the "Notes" section.

This includes (but is not limited to): personal logo, name added to the photo, personal color palette, etc.

Step 5: Submit Your Order

Once you've uploaded your image and made your selections, you're ready to submit your order.
