Profile Picture feature

It will be very useful and interesting if we have an option for adding profile picture.
There have been more and more requests for all these kinds of stuff recently, like adding a profile picture here, adding achievements there, and how about new backgrounds, trophies for everybody, and how about a button to insta-link your game on Facebook and twitter?

Lichess is created for pure chess experience without shenanigans.

Don't get me wrong though, I always like it when people post their ideas. Lichess also gains a lof from that. I merely don't want to see Lichess turn into chess.com
@everagepleb2
I not agree for trophies;
I don't asked "trophies for everybody"... i asked Trophies for THE WINNERS OF THE TOURNAMENTS.

I think is totally different....and i think that is normal to have a trophy if i win a tournament...(infact all the other chess sites has trophies for this)

for the rest, i agree with you.

Cheers.
This is not a NSAbook or some other (((social))) network.
I hope it stays that way.
But still wish since people have keep track of their personal PROFILE: records, rating, rank like stuffs it will be nice just an option for a picture only as additional.

I don't understand what the issue is, I don't want profile pics or trophies either, but I don't think making it an option is necessarily a bad idea. That said, I would much more prefer it if Lichess keeps their main focus on the development and improvement of the chess experience on this site instead of the social network aspect.
