New default avatar

ScratchMarioMan64

The new icons above look a bit too bold. A little more lighter (just a tiiiiny bit) might make it easier on the eyes.

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

Great idea!

Woah, for me those are waaaay to dark blue, and they don't match the color scheme. I also like the idea of just having the sillouhette, like in the original post.

As for the original post, I really like it! However, I think it should be updated to the 3.0 cat sillouhette instead

I'm a bit surprised that the default Scratch pfp hasn't changed, since it's a remnant of the 1.x days of Scratch, and that light blue gradient doesn't look too great. (the default pfp seems to be a bit of a trend though out in the community, since i've seen multiple people make their pfp in the default pfp style.)

I support this, I like it, I want this here because the current default is rather boring, and annoyingly blurry.

Please, state why it should be added to Scratch. Simply saying “I like it” isn't constructive.

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 SVG file which can be rendered at any resolution.

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

I like the new design

Support. Maybe even make the original an option, and give a few other ones like Gobo, Pico, etc.

why would a profile picture need to fit with the website's design
It's the default profile picture, and fairly common among new Scratchers. It's supposed to be related to Scratch's design in some way, and the current default PFP fits the design of Scratch 1.4 with its gradient. It's also incredibly blurry.

just change your profile picture if you don't like the default picture.

I support! But the color of the background is rather bright for me….
