Magnified Avatarsby `Alexander-GG

Maybe you already know about Face Your Avatar social experiment. But if you don't know yet, in a few words, the idea of an experiment is that by setting up our photos as an avatars (and somehow simulating face-to-face communication) the deviantART community may became more personable, friendly, and healthy. If you are interested in, go and read more about Face Your Avatar social experiment.

According to that experiment, many of us have set their photos as an avatars. As you know, the resolution of an avatar is 50x50 pix and this definitely is not a comfortable resolution for viewing the charming portraits of each-other.

My simple idea is to have a "magnified on mouse hover avatars" feature. And it would be even more better to have a possibility to set different images for usual (50x50 pix) and magnified views (maybe 100x100 pix as it's shown here).

That's all!

Mr. Bruce Willis looks much better than me. So, I placed his portrait on a presentation image instead of mine. Hope, he wouldn't mind.

Definitely a very good idea. I always thought that 50px isn't enough. I suggest 75px by default, and 100 or 125px by zoom.

`Alexander-GG Apr 28, 2011

Yes, I do agree. A bit larger avatars would be nice!

Thank you very much, my friend! Really glad if you like! Thanks!

By the way, I want to talk with you on a some good and interesting things. Note me when you will have some free time for a skype conversation. Now it's the Easter time and we have some celebrations here (in Georgia). But, maybe in the end of this week will be okay for you? It's not a hurry.
