We will see radical changes in our profiles on Facebook in the coming future, as the company plans to add support for videos to the profile avatar instead of the images that are there now, add a new bio field, and also overhaul the design of the profile page for mobile devices.
"The world has changed since it was first introduced in 2004 profile", Said the production manager of Facebook. "Today we begin to try the next step in an obvious evolution of profiles: Profile Video"
Αυτό το χαρακτηριστικό θα προσθέσει ουσιαστικά μια επιλογή μεταφόρτωσης βίντεο στο πεδίο του avatar του προφίλ μας. Μόλις το βίντεο του χρήστη ανεβάσει, το Facebook θα αλλάξει το μέγεθός του, και στη συνέχεια θα κυλάει συνεχόμενα και τέλος θα το παίζει αυτόματα για όλους τους people who visit your profile.
Avatar in the Profile that will be displayed for a short time
In addition to looping GIFs (which look like videos), Facebook engineers are also preparing current profile pictures. This will allow users to set a profile picture for a number of days, then when the timer expires it will revert to the previous photo their.
This item is inspired by Celebrate Pride filter of the company, which members used to show their support for the LGBTQ community, and after some time their avatar reverted back to their previous photo.
As Facebook says, topical photos in the profile may be of great use when it comes to holidays, birthdays, or support for various social media campaigns.
Bio fields and focusing on profile images
If you like Twitter Bio, then prepare to create your own customized description for your Facebook profile because the company is thinking about adding it.
This new Bio field will appear right below the profile photo, and it can be used to add details for you.
Above this, users will also be able to set the order of their top 5 suggested images.
Μια αλλαγή αναμένεται επίσης για τη θέση της εικόνας του προφίλ, η εταιρεία ανακοίνωσε ότι θα μετακινηθεί από τα αριστερά προς το κέντρο της screen, currently only on mobile devices.
The new update program has begun to spread to iOS users in California and the United Kingdom, and is currently being tested. If the users who experience it are receptive to the new changes, you can expect to hit the door in the coming months.
