Backdrop Backgrounds for your Twitter Profile Page

When someone visists your page to see whether or not yopu might be worth following, are they impressed? To succeed more often at making a good impression on a potential follower, it is often best to have gotten a little vain and dress it up with some graphics and promote yourself.

twidrops is intended to be a place where you can download some graphics that would look good as a backdrop with the instructions provided on how to set it up. We (or for right now, "I") even offer a living tutorial on how to setup your own stunning personalized twitter backdrop for your personal, professional or company profile using your own photos and/or imagery.

Please note that I'm just an amatuer photoographer and my camera is not the best (My wife's Sony point & shoot is better, now). I'll try and do some illustrations, later.

Our current selection of twidrops:

The list is not so long, but please remember that we (I) have only just begun. This website went online on August 2nd, 2009 and there is currently only one contributing artist (me). If you would like to contribute a backdrop and theme contact me on twitter: http://twitter.com/Domainating. I also use the http://twitter.com/DomainNameGamer account to sample these backdrops and promote my businesses (but I do not like spam or send it).

If you would like to contribute your own backdrops, pattern/texture tiles and/or themes please contact me.

All photography and graphic images remain the Copyright of the artist and twidrops has been granted distribution and use rights.

If you want to send me some encouragement to keep my efforts going I would appreciate that, as well. Back links, Mountain Dew and beer are all good.
