Hey J,
I liked the second paragraph regarding the smart shopping app and the App, Very Sharp.
One comment: I felt I had to dig around to find the working app. May I suggest you emphasize the app with bold, larger font and/or place it higher in your description. I liked the app I just wanted to see it easily.
Hope that is helpful. ;)
Thank you! You are totally right. I have to suggest this to my group, which I was going to do next week. I know, the readme for the shopping app is not good enough now. But I am already working on a PR for this :)
Your Github is superb! Also, love the musicology background. I have a Bachelor's in music. Not much better than good music.
You are so right :) Thank you!
Love your GitHub profile, do you mind if I use it as a guide to creating mine?
Please, go ahead :)
Done. Thanks
Love your profiles, especially LinkedIn!
Linkedin: linkedin.com/in/uzochukwuprecious
Github: github.com/uzor13
I like both, your GitHub and your LinkedIn profile. You could use your web stack in your LinkedIn header too :) Like: Frontend Developer | JavaScript | React ... Your about me seems really strong! :)

Hi I,
I thought both Github and Linedin were professional looking. Good job.
May I suggest one change to your Linkedin account. The simple abstract pattern behind your photo could be Splashier. I felt more color could be positive.
@kristenpalana has a nice piece on color.

Just my 2 cents ;)
thank you, I appreciate the contribution. Didnβt really do anything with that, itβs a LinkedIn default but Iβll look into making it more attractive maybe a css build background

Hi Iyanu,
you have a really cool portfolio website :)
thank youπ,
Looking to improve on it if I can find enough projects to build
Hi All,
I have been Re-working my profile. I have put an emphasis on making it easier to reach. Does my GitHub page allow access to docs/code well?
I am working on Linkedin too but that is later. ;)
I'd love to plant-nerd out over this when you're done/ready to share! π±
Hey Matt! I got your email, but it seems you already figured it out :) Nice profile!

Hi Kellen :)
You could pimp your GitHub profile with the special readme repo :)
Also, you could add your web stack to your header on LinkedIn like Web Developer | PHP | JavaScript ... like this.
Your about me section does not tell so much about you. The CodeNewbie email did add some great links how to pimp that up a bit :D
Thanks for the feedback! I will do my best at implementing these!
Hey Kellen,
Saw yr profiles, Nice.
We have two things in common, I lived in TX and SF. haha.
Both, Great Places
Right people!
I would like to get your thoughts on headshots or icons.
I have noticed that some peeps have very nice headshots with nice toothy smiles, lol. Others have icons, drawings, or nothing at all.
I realize my different accounts have different pics. Codenewbie/Linkedin have a small headshot, my Github has a eye-ball, and even others have a picture of art I like. If we look at Linkedin acts. too many pics are very formal.
My tendency is to want to see a little bit of "face" to gauge their level of professionalism. But I don't practice what I preach. At times, I feel self-conscience while others have gender or even ethnicity issues. I get it. People want to show their individuality and that's cool.
What do Y'ALL think?
I think do whatever makes you comfortable. Either your own picture, or an avatar of yourself, or your logo. But better put something out there rather than nothing. Most people won't take you seriously or doubting who you really are if you don't have any picture.
Before my current profile pic, I had an avatar, except for LinkedIn. Because in my opinion, LinkedIn is more professional. It's like I'm having my 'online resume' out there.
And when you've chosen what to have, it would be good to have the same picture all over your online platform so people can recognize you right away :)
As much as I dislike it I think some form of head-shot is the best all around. I do think that you comments on branding are important too. Which in mind means consistency.
Thanks Ayu ;)
You're welcome, Matt ;)
