Userpic twits
<rant>
Seriously folks, if you don't know what you want, or you can't be bothered to explain yourself clearly and completely, don't get mad at me because I make a picture that you ask for, but not what you want.
This goes far beyond the poor girl who misspelled a four-letter word. About 70% of the userpic requests I get, even from folks who seem to be professional icon-requestors, make no sense.
If you want something specific, use specific language. If you say, "Make it cool" then you'll get whatever the designer thinks is cool, not necessarily what you think is cool.
