I think it looks retarded, tbh. Its like WHAT THE FUCKS WITH THAT, BRO. WHERE'S YOUR FOREHEAD AT. I've applied at a place and been challenged many times. Characters already there ALWAYS go and comment the "elitists" journal and not mine. Just because my characters have foreheads doesn't mean I'm not a bad role player. It just means, I don't dig that look of an icon. For some characters, I have it cut a little above the eyebrows because the icon looks alright that way with a certain picture or if I'm playing Travis Clark because he's got a big forehead~
But I don't like the fact people won't talk to you/comment/give home options because you don't have that type of icon.
