What is your profile pic?
You may have noticed that the newly upgraded rollover feature (the pop-up that appears when you hover over a user’s name using the desktop version of the site) aimed at encouraging interaction and connection. Now you can get a quick look at basic info without having to click into the profile such as if a listener is verified, what level they or a member is on (tip: helps to identify newbies to welcome), and what I like most: a bigger clearer profile photo.
To celebrate the rollover, please tell us

★ What is your pfp - It is an astronaut holding a planet flower.
★ Does it have a meaning? I have a deep obsession with space and astronauts. A lovely listener also made it for me.
★ Why did you choose it? I chose it because not only did a listener make it and it holds value, but I love how cute it is holding a planet flower and it's pretty.

It's an artwork! Infinity Mirror Room-Fireflies on Water by Yayoi Kusama

I'm not sure. It reminds of being one with the universe and co-exiting with other wonderful beings.
☆ Why did you choose it?
Because it's beautiful and inspiring :)
I bet @Hapra probably will have a lot to say about his pfp :P
@Jenna

@wildflower999
Haha, that is okay! I like your pfp too! It's very serene and I like that it means coexisting with others for you.

★ What is your pfp - It is a misty/foggy forest
★ Does it have a meaning? - All of my life I have really loved nature. I am a deeply imaginative person who loves to read and I think a foggy forest is the perfect start to any epic story. When I imagine a misty, foggy forest, it is my sacred place if you will, where I feel safe, protected, and content. And when I chat with members I hope they feel the calmness yet intrigue I feel when I look at it.
★ Why did you choose it? I chose it because I really like the energy associated with the image. I feel very calm, yet interested to learn more in what the picture is showing, and it sort of pulls me in. I think my goal when talking with members is to allow them to feel invited to share with me and I thought the image was an approachable and a fun one to choose.

Hi H! 😊 ❤️ Thank you for this fun forum post! I always love to hear the origin stories and reasoning for the choice of pfp's as well as screen names of others as I see those as an extension of ourselves here on 7 cups. ❤️
I'm not exactly sure what my pfp is exactly, but instead what it looks like or feels like to me. To me it seems like a big burst of light. For me it looks like and feels like positive energy, happiness, hope, and joy. I chose my user name first and then stumbled upon a pfp that seemed to match it?
I chose Sparky to hopefully represent my positivity, energy and willingness to help. I chose Gizmo for the second part, as a Gizmo is like a widget...some sort of useful little gadget that has no name. I was hoping it would show my willing spirit to not know exactly what it is that I could do around here, how I could be of help, to not define myself, but just that I care and I try hard.
*high fives* 😊 and *hugs* ❤️
★ What is your pfp?
It is a picture of an Orca with streams of light and dark coming from it.
★ Does it have a meaning?
Yes, the Orca has always been an animal that has been interesting to me,
I find them to be amazing and inspiring.
They are very big on creating strong connections to one another.
They have wide range of emotions, including empathy, joy, playfulness and love
and also, high emotional intelligence.
★ Why did you choose it?
When I saw the photo, I knew I wanted to have it as a Profile Picture.
But I knew I had to change it a bit, which I did.
I needed to add the light to the photo, because that way it was balanced.
🌓
We all have light and dark within us.
We will always be in the gray, and that's amazing.
I would love to see the story behind your wonderful profile pictures:

★ What is your pfp
Me!
★ Does it have a meaning?
Yes, my friends started calling me Pat the Cat for some reason.
★ Why did you choose it?
This photo reminds me of my cat Rudy, who used to rudely pee on the curtains, while retaining the elegance of a refined gentleman cat with the tuxedo and all. But it's me! Meaaowwwwwww.
★ What is your pfp
A Lion.
★ Does it have a meaning?
Yes, my Spirit Animal is a Lion.

A friend here used to call me "Lion Flower."

★ What is your pfp
My pfp is rain on a car window!
★ Does it have a meaning?
I haven't thought a lot about the meaning behind my pfp. A lot of people say that they enjoy the sound of rain and find it calming, which creates a nice environment for listening ♡ฅ ^
★ Why did you choose it?
I chose this picture because it's calming and simple!
tagging @LittleBirdie30 I've always been curious about the giraffe!
@VioletNotes Aww thanks for the tag Violet!! People always ask why I have a giraffe for my pfp when my username is Birdie, but I love giraffes and I came across the picture and thought it was cute! (I blatantly searched for "cute giraffe pictures" on Google).
