This is my secondary profile which the main focus is to showcase all my guides I've written and any extra artworks as my main profile is already full as it is. As many of you may know, I have a strong passion and desire to create the best looking profiles I can possibly make. So that means taking things further even beyond just my profile page which includes making/compiling a hefty profile guide of beautiful profiles, making a Steam Group page to gather top profilers from the community, skinning my Steam Deck device to match my profile theme and customizing the entire interface on my Deck which includes a custom boot logo, SteamOS theme and Win11 theme to match my profile page!

I do want to expand on this profile too and eventually have a full set of workshop artworks to feel complete along with full custom info boxes (which I believe is the hardest to master but most rewarding to showcase other than artworks). I rarely ever see anyone take advantage of truly customizing info boxes which is a shame but I firmly believe that alone is what separates the pros and average profilers

Also, I do want to start trying my hand at reviewing profiles with a full grading scale as I believe to be more than qualified to do so. Plus I just want to do it for fun! lol

First and foremost, it's the artworks that captures the viewers first. The better the quality and animations, the more it will stand out period. Even with a full page of nothing but a collection of showcased quality artworks is enough to make it into my top 10 list!

Custom info boxes would be the next biggest thing that captures my attention! Any experienced profiler will know just how hard it is to master it since it requires so much time aligning everything perfectly, along with adding flare to it with custom emoticons and content to match whatever theme you're aiming for! Just copy/pasting templates from here without adding any interesting content or adding color to it (emoticons) will likely be boring to me!

The color scheme! Ever wondered why Retro/Synth/Vaporwave profiles are so popular and overused? To me, just the purple/pink/blue color blends are the most attractive to look at with red/white, and blueish or goldish/orange color schemes to be the next most beautiful color schemes if pulled of correctly. Of course there are other colors I'd love to see more of (like green!), but I feel it's harder to find or create matching artworks in that color sadly.

Content. The problem I see with many profiles is that they like to clutter all their favorite artworks at the top and then put all the other showcases like achievements, badges etc. below. To me, that just makes your bottom sections boring to look at since those are just niche showcases to look at if not ordered properly with artworks around it. Also, I see many custom info boxes with random hearts emoticons or acsii arts that are just in there for filler content. That just shows me you're lazy to come up with anything! Don't get me wrong. I don't mean you have to have long profiles and have the most showcases on your page, just make everything count and relevant to the overall theme!

Avatar/Avatar frame/summary section and featured badges on top. They may be small tidbits to many but I feel they are still important to capture the viewer! Throw in some links in the summary section and decorate it with emoticons to add more personality to it! Whether it be links to your FB, Discord, IG, friends page is good. Just do something extra to stand above the rest!
