Hello my reader, it's been a while since I made a non-gaming post. Today I was thinking about the help I received from @event-horizon and @soulfuldreamer through @steemcurator06 & @steemcurator03, and how can I repay the help and motivation to keep posting.
Let me start by saying this. Thank you for the help! Much appreciated!

The first thing that I observed when the two steemcurator accounts left comments on my posts is that they don't have an avatar, or at least not one that pops up and doesn't feel like a newly created account. I checked the steemcurator accounts from 01 to 09 and I think I only found two of them with an avatar, it was 04 and 06 if I remember correctly.
So my idea was to create a new avatar for each account, something that each account can use and once a user sees a post/comment knows exactly where that came from, something that attracts your eyes when checking it.
You know how on other social media platforms they use a blue checkmark to show you that an account is verified and increases it's trust factor because people know that account went through a KYC if we can name it like that. I also added a blue ring with soft light around the avatar just for that, when a user sees it, it's probably because he got some support and been curated by that account.
I will create a table below with the avatars, I checked some accounts and created the avatars from 01 to 09, if there are any other that need it, I have a Vectorial file, I can always generate a new one.
Account Name | Account Avatar |

I found an SVG online with the Steem logo that saved me some work, I added it as part of the background. The font used is free for commercial use, looked for something bold and wide that can easily be distinguished in a small avatar.
The font name is: vipnagorgialla
Now I thought maybe we can change the background color to match the SP of an account to differentiate it, if the avatars are going to be used and you want them to be differentiated by the background color, let me know I can do that.
(or any other change if needed)
And now since we have a set of avatars, we could also use a background, I made something simple, something that if you open the profile on mobile you won't feel your eyes burning from too much bright color.
Used the 3D function inside Adobe Illustrator to create 3 coins look-a-like, and wrapped the logo inside them after.

Super late edit: Sorry I didn't copy paste the full post from my text editor here, I missed the table with technical details. Added it a few lines above.
