How To Create Avatar Images

Step 1) Add HTML:

Example

<img src="avatar.png" alt="Avatar" class="avatar">

Step 2) Add CSS:

Set a matching height and width that looks good, and use the border-radius property to add rounded corners to an image. 50% will make the image circular:

Example

.avatar {
  vertical-align: middle;
  width: 50px;
  height: 50px;
  border-radius: 50%;
}
