Make an attractive streaming background

One thing you learned from watching those late-night preachers is that success breeds success. If you're going to convince people to watch your stream or sign up for your Patreon, you're going to have to look like you don't need them. After all, who looks for advice from someone worse off than they are?

You pull up Gimp and do some image searching with Pixabay before coming up with a stained glass effect. It looks classy and hints at religious secrets without coming out and being blasphemous or anything.

A little photo manipulation later and you have something that will work as a background when you stream from Jeremy's couch. A part of you wants to add a couple semi-naked girls but you suspect that, if you actually get this streaming thing off the ground, your audience will be more female than male and softcore porn will scare away more than it attracts.

Still, you make yourself a background with the girls just for fun. There are so many hot girls out there in the world and many of them seem to have had their pictures taken.

You realize that you've just spent a part of the day doing something that didn't really need to be done at all but it felt good and reminded you that you really do have some skills beyond banging out C++ code.
