Practical answers
- Will it look too corporate?
- The recommended directions favor capable, current portraits without requiring suits, boardrooms, or artificial tech scenery.
- Can I use the same image on GitHub and my website?
- The Developer job targets a square profile image that can work in both places. Create a separate Company Website job when you need a portrait layout.
