I am loving the profile READMEs! I made an old coworker a collaborator on mine as a joke and he made me one... Needless to say, I had to make some changes.

Hi there, here is mine : github.com/lalawuhan/lalawuhan
I absolutely love your readme <3
Nice! I love the images Thabi. How did you go about creating the gif animation?
Thank you, I just converted short animations from mp4 to gif online. I recommend Canva animated images canva.com/join/caribbean-kasbah-ge... - search animated and there will be a few options to create a short video.
I'd love to see it! I already have a Canva account and this link is only for new Canva members. Can you please send it to me?! Thx! My GitHub is RozBarnes (and twitter)
You can do it with any canva account. Just search animations on canva
If anyone's looking for inspiration here are ten really nice profile READMEs seen in the wild 😍

There is a link in the post that shows how to create a Profile README.
TLDR; Creating a repo with your handle as the name (Marlyn-suarez) will unlock the README.
