Everyone should know the NFT now but I have never created and sold NFT before. And I am a software developer, not an artist or drawer. I could not even draw a stunning NFT by myself. So I wonder if I can use some NFT makers to create an NFT picture and make some BTC or Ethereum by selling it.
Is it possible to succeed? I have no idea but I want to record and have it a try.
Ava Maker is amazing as it could generate thousands of cartoon avatars in one click and I think it could attract customers.
Creat an account on OpenSea.
Opensea.io is quite a famous NFT marketing website and I choose it first. I have no account before and I have to create one. Now the problem comes, as I have to connect to my own digital wallet. I have no wallet and I have to search for how to create a digital wallet.
Create a MetaMask wallet.
I choose MetaMask as it is recommended by OpenSea. Go to the website, and download the extension for my Google Chrome. The process is super simple and I have created the wallet and set it up in just a few minutes. Now, I have 0.0000ETH in my wallet.
Upload my avatar picture and submit it to the market.
Finally, I can connect to my wallet with the OpenSea account and I am ready to upload the avatar picture after everything is set up. There is no difficulty to set up your NFT property and it allows you to upload pictures in SVG, PNG, GIF, and even some MP4.
When I think I am almost finished publishing my NFT, I am informed by OpenSea that I need funding from my wallet as it costs gas when publishing the NFT to market. Well, it should be the blockchain rules.
Purchase some ETH and finish the NFT publishing process.
I have to go to Binance and purchase 0.02 ETH by paying some dollars. Transfer the ETH into MetaMask. This process is not quite easy and takes me some hours to search for how to purchase ETH from Binance and transfer it into the wallet.
My Final NFT property.
Finally, I have published my first NFT on OpenSea. Cheers! And here is the link:

I have set the pricing to 0.08. The ETH changes too frequently. It was only worth $80 when I published it but now it is $109 when I publish this post.
Who will buy this picture? I have no idea. How long will it take for selling the NFT? I have no idea. But it is a great experience for me and I have an NFT property now.
Cheers!
