Description
** edited so the symbol isn't part of the link--
This is a quicky Stylish style I worked up only because regular users lacking a symbol bugged the hell out of me
Must use Stylish (for Firefox or Chrome) userstyles.org/ (or Greasemonkey, but Stylish works better) and I think Opera can use styles without anything special.
Then go here to install userstyles.org/styles/93634/daโฆ
Here's ~UnsubbedJon saying "hello" (to see it live).
Please note that with this style, it will only change how new users look to you. Everyone else will see no symbol. But if the fact that new users have no symbol bothers you, this is the style to install.
Any problems or suggestions are welcome

I do not want to spoil the arguments but would not it look better way to prepare if avatarena was greater on the name for an avatar it would make much a difference

lmao, I would, but this is a much more less frictionless option
Want it?ย Install.ย Don't?ย Then don't install.ย Simple.ย I, for one, love seeing symbols on ALL users.

lol, looks a bit strange, but i am sure there will be a lot of people who love it
I saw some people asking to get a snowman as well

I almost did the snowman ย But thought it just wouldn't make sense to anyone not of that era
Yeah, it's a bit odd since it's just different (unless you mean the rather wide symbol dimensions?) I think.
But I mean come one.ย EVERYONE has a symbol except new users?ย ย Bit of a slap in the face if you ask me.ย But this gets around it, if only for you, so that's mainly why I did it

Haha, nice!
I can't really say what the reason is. Maybe it's the symbol itself, the shape and that you are not used to it
It's a bit weird if you see names without a symbol first. Had my problems with it, because i always thought that something did not load or that there is simple something missing. Was also hard to figure out what kind of deviants those are during the first hours.
Bet soon there will be another script, that helps people to change their symbols to something they like more

Heh and that's what I love: people will come to the calling, and make scripts that change/modify how it is, to "appease the deviants"

Haha, nice choice of a symbol! I can practically hear Bruce Lee say "Be water, my friend."

Haha is that what that symbol is?ย I was just looking through my list of HTML entities (omg there's millions) and this one seemed rather appropriate
But man, I keep seeing no symbols on certain people and my first thought is "BUGGG!", but them I'm like "oh wait, they did it funny and didn't provide any for regular members"... Anyway, only been using this for about 5 minutes, but it just adds conformity to pages, which I'm a fan of.
Thanks man

Heh, well, to me it just looks like water is all. And i guess you picked it because it looks similar to the tilde, right?
And i know exactly how you feelโฆ

electricjonny In reply to rotane [2013-10-03 20:34:26 +0000 UTC]
Haha yeah, I can see the water, but as I was looking at entities, I saw this and was like "tilde, but two of them on top of eachother..." GENIUS!ย So I picked it since it sorta appears as a "random symbol" but still resembles the old one.
