Mine is a Kerbonaut from the KSP2 tutorial "Space is the Place", I believe. I took the picture of him waving and cropped it down.

Changed again! This time it’s a Soviet space poster showing a cosmonaut guiding the way for earthly laborers.

My profile picture is a photo of the character Uncle Radley from the Australian TV show Bluey, but his original eyes and mouth have been replaced by the Man Face from the video game Roblox.

Just showing some support for the brown dwarf's out there, someone's gotta stand up for the little guys you know?

Mine is a shot of Eve with spectra-scatterer (Thank for making such a great mod, HafCoJoe!).

My banner is a lot more interesting. It is a resized version of the below flag.

The stars are the different planets of the stock system, and the stripes show that the space program is from Kerbin.

Hey, @Kimera Industries, I heard you are a vexillology expert. What do you think about my flag?(hyperlinked above)

Hm, pretty good. I like how it is reminiscent of the ratios of the Canadian flag, and the use of symbolism for the planets, with the focus on Kerbin. I think it could be improved if it followed the Canadian flag ratio exactly, (1:2:1) and if there were fewer colors. Having a color for each planet works out if the planets are in a line like a typical solar system diagram, but having them all in one badge feels slightly cluttered. You could make more of the planet's colors the same and use sizes to tell them apart, or put them inside a circle instead of a badge shape and line the planets up in a ring.

Just my two cents. Keep in mind that it is a well-done flag, so I have to nitpick to find what could be better.

 

My profile picture is a cropped version of Kimera Industries' full logo:

I modified the rocket to be less tall by shortening its plume, to fit in a square better.

Before this, my profile picture went through several iterations, such as: 

• An explosion (My first profile picture)
• My first Duna landing
• The Russian PrOP-M Mars rover, one of the most unique space vehicles out there.
• A taynix from Skyward
• And probably something else

Alr, I'll see what I can do.

Thanks for the feedback!

My profile image is a highly edited picture I made for my job. It's a picture of a polluted tungsten coil taken with an electronic microscope.
