New default avatar

EDIT 2018-09-30: I have updated the palette of my avatar to the shade of blue used in Scratch 3.0.

This is the current default avatar:

It was designed for the 1.4-era Scratch website, with a light-blue to white gradient. It's also annoyingly blurry.
As such, I have created a replacement avatar that fits well with the new version of the Scratch website:

As you can see, it was designed to be simpler, with only the Scratch cat's head visible and no gradients used, and the background is the same shade of blue as the one used in the website navigation bar. It's also a crisp image, with no blur visible.
I have also provided an (removed by moderator - for safety reasons, please don't use Google Drive) which can be rendered at any resolution.

I have over 100 supporters! Thanks for your support in making Scratch look better!

Ooh, pretty.

Not sure how it would go with the colour scheme, but quit close!

EDIT: Pretty close, but could be a bit darker.

Mind if I keep the icon?

I agree. The old icon was great for the old website, but this is 2.0! We don't need 1997 images!

Idea:
Maybe the ST can have a contest just like they did for the scratch news icons.

Just a thought.

Totally support! Reminds me of the crisp colors and simplistic design of Windows 8 and IOS7, which is what graphics have become.

Yes! And to be honest, I am tired of the old one. It just doesn't look that good anymore.

Nice! I rather like it - I'll pass it on to the rest of the team

This is my forum signature! On a forum post, it is okay for Scratchers to advertise in their forum signature. The signature is the stuff that shows up below the horizontal line on the post. It will show up on every post I make.

It's so smooth, and nearly fits with the site colours too!

I support this!
It looks a lot better than the current default Avatar. I hope the people in charge of Scratch see this.

Plus Plus Plus Ten! A Hundred! A Thousand! I could never decide that number should I “plus.” So for now, let's call it X.
I don't really like the old one, it's really blurry. Those blurs would really annoy my Mom.

That's a great suggestion! It blends with the 2.0 theme really well. Nice work!
