I know it's a small thing, but I really just do not at all care for the round user avatars. They're distracting. They create too much movement on the page, when all I want to do is read text. Square avatars don't draw the eye away from the content nearly as much. Edit: Can someone please explain to me why this was downvoted? I'm not complaining, if it was done for good reason, just curious. I'm not the world's most prolific HN user. If my tone came across as being too harsh, it wasn't intentional.
