I definitely want to be part of this wonderful initiative. Thanks @steemaniacs and @surfermarly. I am pretty new here and have never done an intro post. Can these be done at any time or do they typically need to be the first post?

Hey @bigpanda! Thanks for your nice feedback. We know you from stopping by in @surfermarly's blog, good to see you again :-)
You can do an introduction post whenever you want, even months after joining the platform. However, it's contributive to do it in the beginnings, since it will provide you with a lot of attention right from the start. Then you can build your further doings on an already existing followership.
Don't forget to use the tag #introduceyourself and #introducemyself. Like that you will enter the corresponding trending page and whales (who like to check the fresh content that enters there) may give you a smart upvote.
It's also recommendable to use a nice profile picture as main image. Some hold a white paper in their hands with the date and username written on it to perfectly verify the authenticity of their identity though. This especially applies to people of public interest (imagine you were a famous rockstar, then you should prove that accordingly, otherwise you might get flagged).
But hey: just look how the others did it - especially the ones who got paid nicely: https://steemit.com/trending/introduceyourself. "Learning from the best" is always a good practice :-)
