It might be useful to have the colour a random pastel ish colour rather than all being the same if possible

 

But isn't that the colour of scrabble tiles?

Or, it may remind people to put their own pictures in.

 

If I remove my Minion, do I get a T?

 

Do not remove your minion. They don't like it.

My avatar didn't change. 

Great News! I'm sick of seeing these grey and white images, gives Geekzone more character

Ok, back home so here are the new rules:

- By default new users will have the Letter Tile.
- Users who did not have an avatar before today now have a Letter Tile.
- There is no change for users with a custom avatar.
- Users who delete their custom avatar will be assigned a Letter Tile, unless/until they load a new custom avatar.

For what it's worth (and I imagine it's very little), I don't like the colour of said tile, I find it wildly distracting.

If the tiles were pure CSS/HTML then you would actually be able to customise them with your own user CSS (not sure if its possible on all browsers, but it is on some).

I finally figured out what bothers me about those tiles. They look exactly like the Terrance & Phillip T-shirts!
