Hey Brian, to us, actually Roger Mozbot is a much more attractive from a branding standpoint. We considered including him as well, looks like we should have. Thanks for the feedback.

Bryne, perhaps you're right. In hindsight perhaps we stretched our own standards to hit an arbitrary number. Point taken, we'll revise the post. Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks for the compliments on our Twitter profile design!

Completely agreed re: your Twitter page (and any other marketing channel) needing to serve your business objectives.

As quality design is one factor in establishing trust in a brand, we feel that when brands get something so basic as layout of their Twitter profile wrong, it warrants a nod and perhaps a nudge, which is what this post is intended to be.

Yep, what amazed us most was who WASN'T on top of the change yet, given Twitter's importance to branding these days. Well, and the free template.

Thanks Ghostfish, the post seems to be getting great response here and on Twitter. It's been a pet peeve of ours so wanted to get it out to the world as our first major content contribution.

Granted, most of the world isn't seeing twitter at full size on a huge screen. Our goal is simply - let's make it perfect for everyone in one fell swoop.

Smudge, this is awesome feedback. You probably noticed in our comment above we've just launched this week, so this is much appreciated. If you see anything else, feel free to fire away. We'll be working to address these issues this weekend.

Hey Pubby, yeah the post is meant to be a quick tip, in and out, get your twitter profile fixed.

We specifically decided to avoid teaching people design in this post. That is forthcoming. :)

Also, thanks for the feedback on our own site - we just launched about 60 hours ago and are still working out a few kinks. We'll get this fixed pronto.

Best, Paul Grieselhuber
