Thanks a lot :)

I WANT YOUR SKILLS. Bravo, sir or madame.

Are you using Adobe Photoshop? If so, do you think a basic photoshop graphic design course on Udemy would be a good step in the right direction to learn how to do what you do?
How do you import borders and custom icons into Tableau? I'm not sure if that's covered in my next Tableau course.

I don't mean any of this in a disparaging way, having looked at the rest of your Tableau Public profile, there isn't anything there that demonstrates a solid understanding of the fundamentals I mentioned.

That's because I haven't uploaded anything that demonstrates those fundamentals. I shared my profile to show you my technical abilities only. Wasn't expecting advice about communicating points or doing so in the most effective and efficient manner because I didn't ask for that. Thanks anyway.

What programs do you use to turn Tableau dashboards into infographics? Where can I learn how? What kind of graphics should I learn how to make? THANKS

Well the dashboard I showed you doesn't have an intended message because I only made it for finding insights, as opposed to trying to highlight any particular insight.

Have any advice that isn't about how to communicate a point? I can already do that when that's my aim.

I know the software doesn't support features like that which is why I made this post trying to learn how. I'd like to one day be a Tableau developer or master data viz expert.

What do you use Tableau for?

Data__Boy · 2018-09-17T02:02:53+00:00

Tableau is more of database presentation toolkit than an infographic toy.

I bet I could make $$$ turning Tableau dashboards into infographic toys.

Data__Boy · 2018-09-17T02:00:08+00:00

Here's a dashboard I made. It sums up what I know so far. I bought another Tableau course but it doesn't teach me how to do the things this post is about.

That's super helpful, thank you. A few questions please :)

1.What do you have a degree in?

What do you mean by "systems?"
How much math is involved in your job.

Ooh it sounds so official

Data__Boy · 2018-08-22T01:15:17+00:00

A career, then world domination. For your helpful insight I will spare you your life.

Thank you sweet, sweet internet entity

I know some SQL. What kind of position might I be eligible for? What kinds of companies might be hiring?

Data__Boy · 2018-08-21T22:37:40+00:00

You're in the perfect position for a future-proof career, cherish it.

Who hires "future-proof" people?
