Pretty neat isn't it? Try it out right now on your profile readme too! :D

After seeing that people liked the Github Stats Card idea i created Github Extra Pins

Github Extra Pins

Github extra pins allows you to pin more than 6 repositories in your profile by using github readme profile.

Yey! you are no longer limited to 6 pinned repos
