how to make nanodlp sd card image?
I was wondering how to make an SD card image from what I am currently using on mi pi? I have multiple profiles and custom settings that I would like to compile as a nanodlp image. Can I take the info that is on the pi sd card and use that or is there certain steps? Please guide me to the light 
TIA!

If you want to move profiles and custom settings, exporting and importing setup and profiles would be enough. Alternatively you can copy /db folder on disk to new place as every change being saved to this folder.

Sorry, I am not good with command line. I just want to make a "generic" sd image with the included profiles and settings I have already configured. That is why I thought just removing SD card from pi and making an image from that would work. Am I wrong?

You can use winscp to transfer files from SD card.
