Twitter Should Banish The Default "White Egg" Avatar

When you sign up for Twitter, you begin with as a “white egg”. You might get a white egg on a blue background, white egg on yellow… but you’ll always start with this white egg. And while I do like the symbolism, I think it’s a little on the bland side.


A Russian design crowdsourcing site thinks it has the answer to the humdrum of eggshell in its recently run Twitter avatar contest. They’ve come up with a cute, customizable blue bird that could potentially usurp the egg as the default avatar for new Twitter users, if Twitter is paying attention.
