Cool new Facebook profile trick.

So you know how Facebook just updated your profile, so it shows your 5 most recently tagged photos too? A lot of people are starting a thing now where you edit those last 5, plus your profile picture, into one super picture. It's pretty cool, and a good way to show off your bass.

So this is mine, with my bass Scarlett. And yes, I named her after Scarlett Johansson .

Yeah, how exactly do I do this?
Which order do you tag/upload the pics?

I used Print Screen to take a screenshot of my profile. Then I cut out the 5 pictures I was tagged in and my profile. Then I placed the picture of me and my bass in a layer underneath. I used the holes in the Facebook image to export the 6 pictures. Then I just changed my profile picture, and tagged myself in the other five pictures (in reverse order).

Oh, and you'll also need to make sure that if anyone tags you in a picture, you remove it from your profile by clicking the X.

OK - I had to try it! FB insists on resizing the tagged photos with a mind of its own. How did you tag them so consistently?

My images are really small. They are only the resolution that they appear on your profile.

So, clicking on them doesn't really make them any bigger. When I clicked to tag, my tag box took up most of my image.

This guy here measured out exact pixels. There are also other comments on the article that might be more help than me lol

It's amusing when the resident TB punching bag tries to punch back.

He's only on your case because he hopes Eric is short for "eriction".
