So let's Get Into it....

## Making a Special Repository :
Firstly, You Have to Create a Repository and Name it same as your Username and Make sure to tick on include README File and Repository Should pe Public.

it is a ✨special ✨ repository that you can use to add a README.md to your GitHub profile. Make sure it’s public and initialize it with a README to get started.

**( Here I Have already created the repo that's why it is showing that repo already exists, in your case you will be able to create it easily)**

Now the Main works start.

Remember README File is very Important all the Work we will be going to do in  README File.

## Main Header :

You Can do this in 2 ways 

(1) Find a Good Header on Google and Click on **Open image in new tab** and copy the link. Now you Can **Import** Header Using this Link 

(2) Second Way is **Creating Your Own Header** in Canva / PSD and After Exporting **Upload** that Header to the same Repo in another folder or directly and now copy the link. Now You Can Import Header Using this Link.

### Code for Importing :
Just Change the URL and it will work perfectly. after changing the URL copy the code and goto README File, Click on Edit and Paste it. 

Insert Header/Image Link Inside () and here **(https://simplysabir.io)** and here replace simplysabir with your Username.

Also Click on commit / Commit Changes.
