Something that struck me today about my new YouTube channel was that I had no idea what to replace my placeholder profile picture with. Currently, my profile picture is a simple pastel pattern, but I have a feeling that this makes it harder for viewers to engage with the channel. So what do you guys prefer to see for YouTube profile pictures?
1. A photograph of the YouTuber
2. A graphic design of an avatar or character
3. A stylized font of the channel name
4. Other (please comment)
Thanks :)
The Youtuber, but maybe I'm biased because that's what I've chosen.
I just feel like too many people go for the "self-sim" avatar. It's perfect for the forums, but it's a little boring on Youtube where you have more freedom with it.
