Jorge Romero First of all, I love your post's cover image so it is definitely worth fiddling with it to have a unique image for your unique post. If I could draw I would definitely do that too.
As I cannot draw I have to use a different approach so sometimes I use one of my photos or a stock image from Freepik, but whatever I almost always do is edit and composite the image with Freepik and Canva.
But one thing is sure, I would never publish a post without an image, as our brain processes visual information much faster than written text, so in case somebody skims through the blogposts on Hashnode you will have a much better chance for reading with an attractive image. 😊
Secondly, I would like to say thank you for mentioning me I am very happy that I was able to inspire you. Keep up the great work Jorge. 😊
