When it comes to Twitter backgrounds, you want an image that immediately blows the mind and leaves people gasping "Coooooooool!".
Cool Twitter backgrounds are a source of inspiration for designers and non-designers alike.
So what exactly makes for a good looking design and where can you download one, or learn how to make it yourself? Create Your Own Design The best Twitter layouts are always the ones you make yourself.
If you don't have any graphic design experience and you don't want to invest hundreds (or even thousands) in image editing software, you don't have to rely on stale, boring designs for your background.
There are web-based services out there which can help you customize a background for free.
You simply select a background as a starting point, add an optional layout "frame" for your contact information and photo, fill out a few form fields, choose colors for your text and sidebar and press a button - you're done! What Makes a Background Cool? Just like any design, "cool" is really in the eye of the beholder.
Remember that any cool Twitter background you choose has to have room for the logo, footer, navigation bar and sidebar that are on every Twitter page by default.
Good designers personalize their backgrounds with their own logo, contact information, a mascot or character or a scene that fills the entire page.
You can do all of this, and more, with a free online background maker.
