- Story Pictures - You can bind a "icon" type picture to your story. This is right under the title box when you write your new entry.
- Portraits - You can now update your user preferences to include a self portrait.
Now, you may be wondering why no pictures are showing up for you in either box - this is because you dont have any small enough. I'd be crazy to let anybody post any sized image to the front page! For Story Pictures, you can only have images smaller then 150 (height) x 200 (width). For self portraits, you can only have pictures that are 400x500. I made these numbers up, so if you find these (especially the portrait) unreasonable, let me know.
I'm kinda on the fence over these. Maybe after a while they'll look "normal" but right now they appear out of place and somewhat distracting. I know, I know, you can't please everyone and I'm not asking them to be dropped, just wanted to voice my opinion :)

If it helps, I'm not completly sold on the location, which is why I gave the option of where to place it (left or right of the text). It does seem to interfere. I might incorporate it into the tables somehow so text does not wrap around it. There are a few other thing I can do like force a border around the pic, or something like that.
I want something like this on the front page to make it more lively. But yes, It has grown on me somewhat.
