Hey Product Hunt community, I'm Jonny, the maker of PicLooks Avatars 👋 I’m a UI/UX designer, and I made this resource because through my career I’ve spent hours and hours trying to find decent profile pictures to use in my mockups. ❌  Most stock photos are look overly polished. NO NORMAL PERSON uses these sort of photos on apps. ❌  You can’t use actual UGC Because you don’t have the rights from the people in the photos. Playing with Midjourney, I saw a way to solve my problem. Though most people are creating art, or photos that look like professional photography, I found it was just as good at creating the imperfect, realistic photos that real people use as their avatars. The avatars I’ve created: ✅  Are Fully AI-generated. This means you can use them for any purpose. ✅  Look like real people. Not just models. ✅  Are diverse! All ages, genders and ethnicities. Hopefully, these avatars will ⏰ save you time searching, and 🎨 make the people in your designs look more authentic. And then hopefully in your design crit you get a round of applause and a promotion (not guaranteed). I appreciate any feedback. Do they look real to you? Are there any looks you think are missing? 🙏 Jonny x (follow me on twitter: jnyms)

@jonnymiles , PicLooks Avatars is exactly the tool I’ve been needing! As a UI/UX designer, finding authentic and diverse profile pictures that don’t look overly staged has always been a challenge. Your AI-generated avatars not only solve this problem but also offer incredible variety in ages, genders, and ethnicities, making my mockups feel so much more real and relatable. I love that these avatars are fully usable for any purpose without the hassle of licensing issues. This will definitely save me a ton of time and elevate the authenticity of my designs. Can’t wait to incorporate PicLooks Avatars into my projects and see the impact they make!

Very useful. I definitely agree that most stock photos tend to look overly polished, it was something that was off-putting me from using them. Good luck and congrats on the launch!

@tymzap thanks mate. Yeah I'm mostly solving my own problem here. Finding a non cringe option on unsplash took SO long. Thank you, appreciate it! 💖

Hey Jonny, These AI-generated avatars look incredibly realistic! How often do you plan to update the avatar collection with new faces? It would be awesome to have a constantly refreshing selection. Congrats on the launch!

@kyrylosilin good question! It will be depend on the level of interest, if a lot of people sign up I’ll definitely keep expanding the collection ☺️

This idea is great! I want to know if there will be more different avatars in the future, such as anime avatars, and if users can generate images by using AI?

@open_love_app I did actually think about adding new categories, like anime style, or linkedin style. Will think about it! Currently it's just static images, no generator.

Coool!! I love such simple ideas with profound implications

Launching soon!
@jonnymiles Congratulations on your launch, PicLooks team! Just a thought, have you considered introducing modification options to make the avatars more adaptable for users? I'm excited to see where you take this!
Nancy Le
wow, this app is incredibly useful! I've been looking for something like this for so long. Thank you so much for creating it. I'm curious - are the avatars I see in PicLooks Avatars unique to each user, or can multiple users access the same avatars?
Jonny Miles
Maker
@nancy_autonomous It's a static set of images. If people like this I might create an option to generate personalised avatars in real time – but only if I'm sure the result is going to be better than the real-time generation options that already exist. Currently this takes a bit of time and manual work to do to get a good output. And thanks! 🙏

How do you ensure the diversity of the avatars, and can users customize specific features like age or ethnicity?
Jonny Miles
Maker
@creditdiy I want to take diversity seriously, so there’s an age and ethnicity filter, and a feedback box in the sidebar to let me know if we are missing anyone out that we should add 🙏

The AI- generated aspect is really cool. It's nice to see fresh images that don’t look like the same stock photos everyone else uses.

It's crazy how this problem seemed so small but is actually a big one. Real picture generated by AI. Are you thinking beyond profile picture? like full images, situation based?
