Good day to you all, it is nice to have you here.
I really appreciate the effort of utopian and team for given us a chance to share our own ideas and thoughts while still get rewarded for doing so. In addition, I really commend the efforts of all the moderators who work diligently and tirelessly for the continuous growth of #steemit community and utopian.
Your effort is fully appreciated.

In this post, I want to give a tutorial on how to add a cover image in steemit.com
Cover image is the image that shows at the back of your profile thereby gives it a good and attractive outlook.

#### Below is a sample of my profile with cover image

#### Another Sample without cover image

#### Below are the steps to follow to add cover image

##### Step One

It will displayed the image above
Click on Choose images
It will take you to your files,
Locate where you saved your images and select the preferred one to be used.
Allow it to load until it shows upload completed!

##### Scroll down and click on Update

##### After updating, that is all. Your cover image is set for good and better outlook.

I accessed the site for this tutorial using chrome latest version 62.0.3202.84

#### All images was screenshot using itel 1409 phone

#### Thanks for taken your time to check in.

But i just made this tutorial in a way that it will be easily understood by even a layman. I think the best result of any tutorial or information is for users to understand it.
