Welcome to Steem, Colin! @hansfrancesco
Here's a few tips (if you don't mind) to get you started:
You're a good writer, but your formatting is lacking a little bit. Put some paragraphs in your text, to make it more readable. Learn some mark-up or HTML to emphasize certain words or phrases.
Use hashtags in your text like #introduceyourself , and also consider using Steempeak.com (makes formatting point and click, very easy) and using even more tags like #palnet #creativecoin and finding a Tribe/Community that caters to your interests.
p.s. that's great photo! one more tip - increase the size of your signature/watermark on your pics just a little bit. It's barely readable!
Take these suggestions, and good luck! Let me know if you need any help.
Thank you for your kind words. Still stumbling around in here but sure I will get it all figured out in time. Going to try another post using some of the tips you gave me - thank you also for those.
