User Icon changes
Title:
User Icon changes
Area:
Styles
Summary:
Paid feature where the user can change the person icon next to their username.
Description:
Recently LJ implemented the ability to change the little icon next to a username site-wide. I'd like to see the same here, but with a few improvements.
First, free to paid accounts. It might just prompt people to buy a paid account.
Second, the image has to be hosted on another site, so it is not clogging up the servers of DW. Or an icon slot can be "sacrificed" to host it here.
Third, only small icons, 17x17 will be allowed.
This will be just a little thing to give some more color to DW. May pull some of LJ's customers over as well.
In execution it will look like this:
<a href='http://daven.dreamwidth.org/profile'><img src='http://www.rosequoll.com/lj/bdragon.gif' alt='userinfo' width='17' height='17' style='vertical-align:bottom;border:0;'></a><a href='http://daven.dreamwidth.org'><b>daven</b></a>
I got this from a lady who had this on LJ, and I think it's a cool idea.
This suggestion:
Should be implemented as-is.

It's cute and all, but can make it hard to quickly see who's who on a page.
