I’d just like to say a few things about designing userpics, for those who want to try their hand at it.

  • 100 pixels is smaller than you think
  • If you need to put text on an image, make sure you can read the text before you deliver the final design
  • They’re animated GIFs, not “flash icons.”
  • Blurry is rarely a good thing
  • Google Image search is your friend.
  • Be polite and reasonable.
  • Perhaps you should re-think hosting images on Fotki or Virtue.nu, since they seem to fail so regularly.
  • Sometimes several people post a userpic simultaneously. It’s not an insult to you.

That is all I have to say. Good night.
