But I just got inspired by ChiQ Montes’ Graphic Profile on her About page.

Basically, as you can see in the smaller version I’ve included here, she’s created a well-designed montage of her favorite things, with a number in each picture that corresponds to a key under the graphic. For instance, the photo of Uno cards has a big white number 1 in the corner, and number 1 in the list underneath says: “1. I love playing UNO Cards!”

I’m definitely going to borrow this idea for my own About page, and hopefully I’ll remember to create a tutorial on how to create your own Graphic Profile. Maybe I’ll even add ‘Graphic Profile Creation’ as a service for those of you who would rather have me create one for you with the images you provide.

Other ideas I have:

  1. Put the individual images the montage into jigsaw puzzle pieces.
  2. Create a Comic Strip Profile of favorite things using Comic Life software.
