Show support for Opera on Twitter

July 22, 2009 · by Espen André Øverdahl

A rising trend on Twitter is showing support for various causes using a "Twibbon". A twibbon is a small avatar/icon which is displayed on your profile picture - making sure you let your friends and followers know what cause you are promoting.

@xlight created an Opera group and if you are using Twitter and want to promote Opera, then join the Opera group!

Caution: The process of adding this twibbon will *reduce* the size of your full-size avatar to the size of the smaller version.

For instance, normally, you would go to somewhere like http://twitter.com/ellinidata and see that the words in the avatar are not really readable at that small scale. So you would click on the avatar and... find that the full-size one is also unreadable.

It's a nice idea, but not a perfect implementation.

@brianlj you can easily return to your previous avatar at twibbon website.
