Congrats! 🍾
My main project, although very niche (a programming language aimed towards music) has 149 and is on github since 2016!!!

You surf on the wave plus nicely communicate about it 👍

Oh, I just gave a star 🚀 and made it to 150 now
BTW, Thanks :p

That's very kind of you! Thanks.

Abhishek Naidu • Jul 15 '20

Yea, No problem 😉

Thanks for some great examples. I had not been aware of aligning texts or images until I saw this one: github.com/harshkumarkhatri/harshk...

Thus, as a part of your README.md you can use both options:

<p align="center">...</p>
<img align="right" />

Glad, you liked it :)

I used a simple approach too. Any suggestions are welcome. github.com/MarikIshtar007

Abhishek Naidu • Jul 15 '20

Yea, it looks fine to me, you can make a PR if you're interested :)

Haany Ali • Jul 15 '20

Thanks, I'd love to!

This is actually awesome! ♥

But there are still some repos like → github.com/wesbos/wesbos
I wonder when he realizes and renames his website project repo to something other than his username.😀

Waylon Walker • Jul 14 '20

He still needed to click the enable button. I'm sure he is aware.

Abhishek Naidu • Jul 14 '20

Thanks Bro 🎉

Abhishek Naidu • Jul 14 '20

Yes true bro! 😂

I don't want to be that guy, but the title is kind of misleading and makes you think there would be general tips and tricks to promote any project. You don't really talk about the topic you put in the title.

I congratulate you for the stars, but this is basically another "How To Create A GitHub Profile README" post. The title could be a tad more accurate.
You got me, this time! :D
