I think Rob is onto to something here. He's collecting the default icon for a whole bunch of sites. Would be amazing to see the collection expand and analyze the data (male/female, non-human/human, face/full body, etc.)

As a side note, last month one of my favorite new blogs, Sociological Images, wrote about the default representations in Facebook which appears as a white male for individual users and yellow men and women when they're showing the whole globe.

Required, but not displayed (so don't worry about spam).

If you've got one, flaunt it.

You can use some HTML (a's, br's, p's, oh my!) if you'd like, if you don't know what that means, don't worry about it.

REMEMBER ME?
