Award Suggestion

You made profiles able to be coded, so, why not an award/badge/thing?? for a nice-looking profile?
Just a silly little suggestion for the coders on this site, perhaps.

Just to be clear, how would you define a "nice-looking profile"?

Hmm, maybe just something that's pleasing to look at, a nice theme, maybe an aesthetic-type profile? I'm not good with words but basically something pretty or with some cool coding.

^ What Baud said.

Though I'm not opposed to the idea, it definitely needs to have a clearly defined objective goal.

Judging how a profile looks like is so subjective that members could believe the choice of who gets such an award is based on favoritisms, I don't think the staff would be happy to deal with users asking "why wasn't my profile good enough? Is it because user X is nicer/more active/whatever than me? "

Also awards are mostly used to show a user's contributions towards the forum, so having one just for having a pretty looking profile wouldn't exactly fit with the others.

Without counting that the number of members who actually customize their profiles to that extent is very small, so not only it would be dedicated to a niche, but you can easily find pre written code to copy and paste everywhere online, so it wouldn't even necessarily take skill to obtain, making it a little useless in my opinion.
I'm sorry but we don't need anything that can point to favortism on the forum we have enough things to keep in check as it is.
