pt 2 here :: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1207342633/ a guide on how to make an aesthetic account (this is all based on the current aes comm "trends" and if you'd like me to make one on the whole sanrio era i can but it wont be as detailed) step 1. choose a username. something i personally recommend is DO NOT EVER use capitals unless youre going to make it ALL capital and DO NOT use dashes and don't use X as a letter replacement anywhere pls . these things put me off in a user and something thats really wrong with me is that i will not think you have good banners if ur username is ahh like based on js seeing ur user and ik thats very dont judge a book by its cover of me but this is a me problem u can do this if u want idc genuinely all you do is put random letters together and hope it works but you can also have a prefix thats a real word or a shortened word and then a suffix thats really random or the other way round where you have a prefix thats random and then a suffix thats an actual word. or you just have both mean something examples (free 2 use w/o creds) - flwreonu waeruas daisgrls zyudiar cybrae niaght aziyuq then you could also incorporate numbers or underscores in it. irl examples include @i2bitzy, @i04que (me <3) @m1nis0o_ki (also me <3), and @_ddeonu and you can also replace certain letters with numbers such as a with 4, b with 8, o with 0, i with 1 etc. (ex @N3WJE4NS-) . you could also js add a random number in there like @w2uki and k2yuos or you could make the number mean something like @in2u (in to you) @hrts4u (hearts for you) or @2geeked (too geeked i think) examples (free 2 use w/o creds) - i09hrts d2wvy y2_kgrl _cybrwv SERR4F1LES 21stapler mylove4u 2hungry step 2. choose a theme/aesthetic. what u wanna do for this is just go on pin/tumb and search up "aesthetic moodboard" and then look at whatever images you get and decide which theme you want. for example if you see a moodboard thats pink and white thats coquette and now whenever you make banners or need images matching your profile you know you can just search up coquette. some popular aesthetics are - coquette twee/applecore juminocore sanrio pastel anime frutiger aero you could also just have a colour scheme for your profile that doesnt necessarily have to be an aesthetic . for example you could do black n white, pink n green, blue n white or even more colours added to it. you also dont actually need to have a theme, you could just do random colours if thats what you want to do . i like both of those either way but one thing i recommend to do if youre doing random colours is that at least keep them the same tone and vibrance ykwim? like either make them lighter colours or darker colours it just makes the profile more cohesive and put together and not messy. step 3. get a pfp. there are loadsss of different types of pfps but the first thing to remember is that you should have a clear pfp otherwise it just wont look good. i have a tutorial on my profile ( but here's how to do it -
◌͟ choose your image/icon ◌͟ go on ezgif[dot]com[slash]resize ◌͟ upload / ctrl+v your image ◌͟ make the dimensions 500*500 under the image ◌͟ click on "resize" ◌͟ save / copy the image ◌͟ go to ezgif[dot]com[slash]webp-maker ◌͟ paste / upload your resized image ◌͟ click upload files ◌͟ copy the image once so that you have 2 of your resized image ◌͟ scroll down and click on "make webp" ◌͟ when its done, if its over 512KB you wont be able to use it as your pfp so click on "optimize" and optimize the image, and keep doing this till its under 512KB ◌͟ if that doesnt work, go back to the original webp before all the optimizing and click on resize to make it a smaller size like 300*300 and then optimize like once or twice till its under 512KB. ◌͟ save the webp to your device ◌͟ now go back to scratch and go to your profile and click on the scratch cat image next to your username and upload your saved webp and if it says "Upload a valid image. The file you uploaded was either not an image or a corrupted image." then just keep uploading it over and over (it could take up to 5 mins) till it finally accepts it and now u should have a clear pfp! now this was just for a basic image. these are the types of pfps you can have in the aes comm - regular image (see @bleuemaud) - bunch of images together turned into a gif/webp (see @miusdiarie) - an edit or video turned into a gif/webp (see @kaiamies) - edited pfp (see @uckgrls/@iovengel) to make these other types of pfps clear, its pretty much the same thing but tweaked a little. for the edited pfp, its the same as a regular image. for the bunch of images put together kind of pfp, these are the steps - ◌͟ go on pin and download your images of choice and make sure theyre all together in a line in your downloads ◌͟ go to ezgif[dot]com[slash]webp ◌͟ upload all your images ◌͟ under all your images, you should see a yellow box with "Your images are not equally sized. Do you want to automatically crop/resize all images to match the smallest one?" and then click on resize in the yellow box. ◌͟ now, you can adjust the delay time. to get it to be really fast you can keep it at 20 or lower and if you want it to be slower raise the amount. for example when i did my pfp it was at 35. you can also click on crossfade to make the images fade into each other but this is going to make the image size bigger so make sure you only have about 5-6 images if you want to crossfade. ◌͟ click on "make webp" and you should see your gif! after that, go to resize under the gif and make it 500*500 or lower if the size is really big and then optimize it a few times. and you can save the webp to your device :) ◌͟ now go back to scratch and go to your profile and click on the scratch cat image next to your username and upload your saved webp and if it says "Upload a valid image. The file you uploaded was either not an image or a corrupted image." then just keep uploading it over and over (it could take up to 5 mins) till it finally accepts it and now u should have a clear gif pfp! for the edit or video turned into a gif/webp kind of pfp, these are the steps - ◌͟ go on pin and search up [idol/character/person] edit and you should see a bunch of videos and edits and wtv. ◌͟ click on the one you like and then on windows press windows icon+g and select the capture option and pin the little toolbar where you can record and take a screenshot and whatever. then record the entire video/edit and save it. for mac you can do this by pressing shift + command + 5 to open the screenshot toolbar, then choose to record the entire screen or a selected portion. on a chromebook you can do this by pressing ctrl + shift + show windows to open the screen capture toolbar, then select record and choose your recording area (full screen, partial, or window). ◌͟ now go to ezgif[dot]com[slash]crop-video ◌͟ upload your recording and crop it to your liking and then click on "crop video". ◌͟ under the cropped video, you should see the resize option so click on that and then put the dimensions to something lower than 500*500 like 300*300. ◌͟ click on "resize video" and under the resize video you should see the convert option, click on that and select "to webp" ◌͟ now just scroll down and click "make webp" ◌͟ if the finished size is higher than 512KB then optimize it over and over again till its under 512 and save the webp to your device! ◌͟ now go back to scratch and go to your profile and click on the scratch cat image next to your username and upload your saved webp and if it says "Upload a valid image. The file you uploaded was either not an image or a corrupted image." then just keep uploading it over and over (it could take up to 5 mins) till it finally accepts it and now u should have a clear video gif pfp! b/w, sets and more coming in pt 2!!
