I prefer to use an avatar. It's supposed to evoke machine translation in a humorous way (2 burritos = 2 small donkeys)...
On other, non-work-related social sites, I use different avatars, for example "neal the sloth" (http://admascots.wikia.com/wiki/Neal_the_Sloth) ...

It is almost the only photo I use on the Net | May 25, 2017 |
I had a couple of attempts at a logo and a terrible photo of a green shirt, possibly with me inside it ... and then I adopted this one.
It must date from around 2004. | | |

An artist friend made an avatar based on a picture of me. I figure this should "age" less than a regular picture would. | | |
Less than 1 year | May 25, 2017 |
This photo is a selfie I took last August, I like updating my photo.

About 3 years' old | May 26, 2017 |
Choosing the least worst photo among very few is not only boring, but also a genuine challenge, so it will likely stay here for a while.
