NFT Archeologist Brain Genius found this fantastic 2017 NFT project and it absolutely blew up.

Tons of people visiting the site.

So now you want to put a cool image on your Corner and have it link to your webpage.

Perfect, let’s get it.

DISCLAIMER: Anything you do after this is 100% on you. Any lost funds, NFTs, or other unforeseen consequences are 100% on you. I am not responsible in any way. Turn away if you do not accept 100% responsibility.

How To

Step 1: Go to imgur.com and login

Step 2: Click on your icon in the top right-hand corner of the screen and then select ‘images’

Step 3: Click ‘add images’

Step 4: Upload the image that you want to use.

Step 5: Click on the image.

Step 6: Click ‘Copy’ on the Direct Link button

Step 7: Paste that link where the XXXXXX is in this code:

<a href=YYYYYY" > <img src=”XXXXXX" width=”100%”></a>

So it should look like this (with your link being different): <a href=”YYYYYY" > <img src=”https://i.imgur.com/hGZjlEq.png” width=”100%”></a>

Step 8: Now copy the link you want to use. And paste it to replace the YYYYYY (I’m using my Twitter profile):

<a href=”https://twitter.com/adamamcbride” > <img src=”https://i.imgur.com/hGZjlEq.png” width=”100%”></a>

IMPORTANT: If the image doesn’t show for you, try retyping the quote marks (“ ”) in the code. Because of the way Medium works these sometimes get messed up when copy/pasting.

Step 9: At MyBlockChainCorner click the gear icon and then select ‘Account’

Step 10: Make sure your MetaMask is connected and click ‘list’. This will bring up a list of all of the Corners that you own.

Step 11: Enter the Page, X, and Y numbers of the Corner that you want to change, then click ‘Search’

Step 12: Paste the text from step #8 into the box.

If the image does not show correctly you have done something wrong. Go back and try again.

If the image is good click ‘Set HTML’.

Step 13: Confirm the transaction in MetaMask. WARNING if your gas is more than $40 you have done something wrong. ‘Reject’ the transaction in MetaMask and try again.

I hope that worked for you.
