The choice of an avatar is a responsible event, since a mini-image will characterize your personal and professional qualities. The nature of the icon largely depends on the direction of the resource on which it will be used.
Instructions
Step 1
Think about what information the avatar should carry, what impression it will make on other users. This picture is your face in certain internet circles.
Step 2
The image should be recognizable, easy to understand, while choosing, dubbing should be avoided in every possible way. The quality of the picture depends on how it will be displayed with different browser settings. It is advisable to give preference to graphic files with the maximum resolution and optimal size.
Step 3
If the dimensions of the image are too large and do not fit the site's requirements, then they can be changed in the Adobe Photoshop program ("Image" - "Image size"). At the same time, you should not flicker either: a good picture is clearly distinguishable. If an icon with a panther is selected as an avatar, then there should be no associations with an ordinary black cat.
Step 4
A working avatar deserves special attention, which is also part of the image. He, like everything else, should be profit-oriented. If you are looking for customers on the Internet, as well as communicate in professional blogs, then it is advisable to use the same photo as your avatar. Yes, yes, just a photograph, because it:
• individual;
• associates with you as a specialist;
• inspires confidence;
• humanizes your face;
• easy to remember.
It is best to refuse the collective choice of an avatar, because, first of all, the owner himself should like him. Therefore, it is necessary for the owner of the image to decide which photo should be in the work account.
Ideal avatar:
• good quality;
• demonstrates an open gaze;
• a well-taken shot;
• associated with professionalism;
• favorably presents its owner.
The constant change of images is only appropriate in hobby clubs and dating sites. But the image of a specialist should be firmly associated with you, so it should not be changed often.
