Pull Request Submitted - Updated FAQ for cover image and more
With the new addition of the cover image that can be added to user's profiles, there have been new 'frequently asked questions' related to the cover images. I updated the FAQ to include new questions and answers for the cover images. I also made several other updates while I was working on the page.
Here is a sample of some of the new questions. A full summary of the changes is below.
New FAQ Questions Added

The first image in the post will automatically be set as the thumbnail image.
What is the recommend aspect ratio for thumbnail images?
The recommend aspect ratio for thumbnail images is 16x9.
What is a MVEST?
A VEST is a unit of measurement for STEEM Power. A MVEST is one million VESTS. The amount of STEEM Power in one MVEST can be found on steemd.com as steem_per_mvests.
What is the recommend size for the cover image?
The cover image will be resized/scaled depending on the device being used. Therefore it is recommend to use an image that will still look good when cropped or resized. A 2048x512 image is the optimal size to work for most devices.

Submits pull request for cover image inclusion but doesn't have one of his own?? How mysterious Mr Tim :)
Haha, I know right? I really have to get on that :) Too many things..
Thanks for FAQs, this is the most questions of my friends, I will share it. good post @timcliff
That’s the easy part, but you’d be surprised how many steemians were confused about the size and ratio. But this post has solved almost 100% confusion i guess. Good on you mate. Love to see your next informative and motivational post. Lets get in touch. Upvoted and resteemed
Thank you so much for all your great posts. I am just getting my head around some of them. So much useful information. Anyhow, I created 3 accounts for my family so far, and you have our Witness vote on all 3 for what it's worth.
I recently moved to an 'off-grid' area with zero mobile signal across all networks, though thankfully I got fibre internet installed a few weeks ago, so back online.
Your post: https://steemit.com/news/@timcliff/new-tool-from-busy-org-create-new-steem-blockchain-accounts-with-steemconnect is a lifesaver, as I cannot verify account(s) via mobile phone. Thanks again @timcliff
