Adding a stunning and attractive image to your Chaturbate profile is one of the best ways to stand out and carve out a unique identity for yourself on the platform.
Apart from the many practical benefits to be derived from this step, many models go for it just for its aesthetic benefits. To push this to the maximum, some like to float their images or logos to the side.
In case you find yourself in this boat but are unsure of the best way to go about it, this guide is for you. Below we have given an in-depth instruction on how to add a floating image to your Chaturbate profile, how to host your image, and of course how to adjust your final output if such a need arises.
We have also ensured that the process is outlined as simply as possible so that even those without prior knowledge of manipulating HTML codes can follow easily.
Without further ado, here's all you need to know about adding a floating image to your Chaturbate profile.
Floating Images on Chaturbate
Chaturbate prides itself on the flexibility it gives its models to do their own thing and customize their profiles as they see fit. This, in fact, is undoubtedly one of the biggest appeals of the platform and why it continues to grow with each passing day.
One example of such flexibility can be found in models customizing their pages with stunning graphics, logos, and simple images. To do this, models embed the HTML links of their images into the "About Me" section of their bio.
While this step is a little bit easier for those with prior knowledge of HTML formatting, those without this knowledge can also pull it off conveniently by following our guide below.
Most importantly, though, you should have in mind the basic principles which is that to float images on Chaturbate, you must first design your image or logo, host your final design, and get the HTML code.
Hosting Your Image/Logo
The very first step in customizing your page is getting your image, logo, or design graphics. Later on in the section we'll look at the methods available to you in this regard, but once you get your file ready the next step before you can float the image is to host it.
What do we mean by hosting your image? It's simple. You simply visit any image hosting website such as imgbb.com, imgur.com, and many others, and upload your file.
The purpose of doing this is to save the image on a server so that you can get a URL for that image. Whenever this URL is embedded into a HTML link and pasted on say your Chaturbate field, any web browser in the world can then load and display this image.
Once your image is hosted and you have the URL, you can then move on to the next step which is the actual floating of your image.
Floating Your Image/Logo
At this stage you have the URL of your image or logo. You may even have your HTML code ready to embed on your Chaturbate profile, which should look something like this:
<img src="IMAGE URL">
Note: *IMAGE URL* should be replaced with the URL obtained after hosting your design.
While this code alone will ensure that your image is properly displayed on your Chaturbate profile, it will do nothing to float it and format it the way you want it to.
To do this, you must add an extra layer of code to insert the necessary formatting. The code below should help you achieve the level of floating you desire.
<b style="display:block; width:40px; height:auto; position: fixed; top:166px; left:0px; text-align:centre;">
<img src="IMAGE URL" style="width:35px; height:35px; background-color:#756a47">
If you'd like to add an external link to your image, then there is a need for more code. Here's the proper formatting style for this.
<a href="EXTERNAL LINK" style="display:block;style="width:35px; height:35px; border-bottom:1px solid #fff; cursor:pointer;"><img src="IMAGE URL" style="width:35px; height:35px; background-color:#756a47"></a>
Embedding on Chaturbate
Finally you can then proceed to embed this code on Chaturbate by visiting your profile and clicking "edit bio". On the edit bio page leave everything in its usual format except the About Me field.
In this field copy and paste the code in the previous section and click update. Once your bio is successfully updated, the page should refresh and in the newly loaded page you should find your new image uploaded and floating just as you want it to be.
It is also possible to edit your code if something on there is not to your liking. For instance size can be improved by editing the figures in the code to either make it larger or smaller.
Sourcing for Your Image/Logo
As mentioned earlier, before you can float your images or logos on Chaturbate you must first have one in mind. This can either be an original image/logo or something already existing.
For the former, you will obviously have to design something on your own if it's original. If it's something that's already in existence, however, you may simply have to search for it online to find what you desire.
For instance, if what you want to float is a DMCA logo you may have to visit the DMCA website to select a logo and float with the appropriate code.
You could also find different DMCA logos online and float accordingly. Below is a general HTML code for floating DMCA logo on your Chaturbate profile:
<img target="_blank" style="position: absolute; top:315px; left:40px; width:45px; height: 45px;" src="https://images.dmca.com/Badges/DMCA_badge_trn_100w.png" rel=nofollow"/>
How to Get Original Image/Logo Designs
For those who desire something original, there are generally three alternatives to consider: designing by yourself from scratch, hiring someone to design for you, and making use of high-quality professional templates.
Designing Yourself
Designing your logo or image by yourself can be done using special image manipulation programs such as Gimp, Canva, Photoshop and many more.
This alternative is usually for people who have experience using such programs before, otherwise the final output might be too underwhelming.
Designing your images and logo on your own can also save you money, but of course what you save in money you may have to make up for with valuable time.
Either way, the aim should be maximizing convenience while guaranteeing quality, and seeing as there are other methods that do this better, designing by yourself is not our recommended method.
Hiring a Freelancer
Hiring a freelancer to get your original designs done is advisable for those who have a reasonable budget and would rather spend their time on other functional aspects of running a Chaturbate profile, rather than designing.
Hiring a freelancer can be easily done through forums and freelancing platforms where there are lots of specialists waiting.
Of course, again, it is worth noting that getting the best designs here would require spending a significant amount of money.
For this reason, and for the fact that the next alternative costs less and can guarantee similar output, hiring a freelancer is also not our recommended option.
Using Designurbate
Lastly, to get your original graphics designs and images, you may choose to use a website with ready-made templates that can be easily editable and exported in no time at all.
The problem with most of these websites, however, is that there usually isn't enough variety and customization. And that is where Designurbate comes in.
At Designurbate you will find enough designs to give you flexibility regarding which option to finally go with. Furthermore, all Designurbate design templates can be easily edited to reflect your own taste. It is also easy to embed and generate HTML codes for your final floating images when you get your profile designs from Designurbate.
Our Recommendation - Using Designurbate
Of course, using Designurbate to get your original designs and logo is our most recommended method. This is not just because it is the easiest and most convenient method, but also because despite all of these, it is also one of the safest guarantees of getting truly high-quality outputs.

Summary/Conclusion
Floating images on Chaturbate are achievable with the right HTML formatting. Thankfully, you don't have to be a HTML guru to get this done. All you have to do is source for your image or design one yourself, host it appropriately, generate a URL and insert this URL as a part of your final floating code which we have provided above.
You can also edit this code as you please, after which you can then proceed to edit your Chaturbate profile and paste the code in the "About Me" field of your bio.
Save and update your changes, and your new and improved profile should feature your image floating nicely by the side.
