Add extra info to userpic uploaded notification
Title:
Add extra info to userpic uploaded notification
Area:
notifications, icons
Summary:
Correct the terminology and add useful descriptions to the email notification.
Description:
The "so-and-so has uploaded a new userpic" email notification for people in your circle could do with a couple of updates:
1) Change it to say "icon", since I think that's official DW terminology now.
2) Add in the description and comment as text, partly for the benefit of screenreader users getting emails, and partly so if someone uploads a cool new icon, you can see the comment that says "made by exampleuser" and give them appropriate credit without having to go to the allpics page.
This suggestion:
Should be implemented as-is.

I know that many people often say 'icon', but given the religious connotations of the word 'icon' and it's meaning I'd rather Dreamwidth stick with the more neutral and, I believe, more descriptive term 'userpic'.
