Avatar borders

*Haylau Jun 22, 2012 Student General Artist

So I always wondered if DA could implement some sort of feature where when you post an avatar, you could choose from an array of borders to surround your avatar. I find that it looks bland when it is just a square.
if a border sounds ugly, then maybe the idea of having rounded corners might sound nice? its really hard to explain, but I really think it would make things easier for people who dont know how to make a border or just want an easy fix. I know how to do it, but it takes time, and thats time not a lot of people have ~_~
Just a suggestion LOL

MMno.
At this point, anyone can make their avatar how they want to look like. So this would be useless.

Uh NO because this would make transparent avatars look stupid.

well I am saying we would have a choice lol like, a check box saying ' round corners' or 'square box'

I think it's a good idea :/

It's probably already been said, but there are people that are photographers or sculptors, for example, that don't know how to make a rounded border/don't own any digital art program.
The worst that can happen to you is that you don't use it. :S

Sounds like a ridiculous, useless and bad thing to me. You can make your avatars with rounded corners if you want, or with a border. I think you should stop wanting other people to do things you want for you.

kay, I only suggested something that I thought would better the DA community. I KNOW how to make an avatar have rounded corners and borders, but I thought it would be nicer if DA just implemented those options. Like I just said to someone else, it was only a suggestion and I wasn't looking for people who didn't like the idea, so why bother commenting on it if you don't like it?

I commented to say I don't like it. When you make a thread, some people will agree, others won't. You need to learn to get over yourself.

I don't need to learn anything, and I understand people will not agree with me, but why do people have to bring in my artistic ability or say i don't know how to do it when I do, I was thinking of others that don't, and I just thought having rounded corners on our icons like twitter and tumblr does would look nicer.
