The NEW SWAPD STAFF AVATAR CONTROVERSY contest! Win 250 USD in SWAPD AutoBumper Credits + 1x Free SideBar Ad!

Although I like this idea, I don’t think it should be the only option. Maybe give the option to have it in this format but some prefer to not have it that way (myself included).

Either because of personal branding reasons or sometimes also because it may not look as nice with usernames that are longer than the OG users (such as yourself, Comfy, with a nice and small username. Compare that to someone who has a username Like Mikaelson2024, it may not look as nice, especially if it were the only option)

That’s why @GOAT doesn’t like it.

And @SWAPD

Thanks GOAT :goat:

This may look cleaner + centered since you don’t have a VIP/Diamond badge in the lower right corner

I like @Mafia’s concept more than mine where I put admin at the bottom.

However, the logo without words is better & more simple. It says Admin under your name, so a bit redundant to include it on the avatar.

This is hard.

Trying to create something new & original but it is very hard.

You can only use the logo, or the role - the Admin, Agent, etc. or both.

Only logo - OG profile picture.
Only role - new profile picture.
Both - illegible, bad scalability.

So, the best option is: using the colors for your advantage - which I’m trying to do now :stuck_out_tongue:
Logo revamp would be good too, but that’s too much work I guess just for profile pictures.

My ideas, will probably post more later. Nothing original, but I think working on colors + small details is more than enough.


Decided to create small details in the logo. I used gradient, glow, outline and inner shadows for more depth and making it stand out a little bit. Why no text? Well because it doesn’t matter really, and it doesn’t scale well. The logo shows that the person is staff member, and that should be enough in my opinion. If someone wants to know what rank the staff member is, they can see it after clicking on their profile.


Details in closer look, as you can see the black background version is a little bit diferent. (Also the black isn't fully black, to make it look more pleasant to the eye)


It scales really well, well because it is just a logo. The details vanish when the picture is small, but you can see them in user profile.


Different color ideas, and an idea for admins to have black background, and agents/mods to have colorful background. Why? I don't know. It just fits for admins to have the elegant black color.
