Personally, for my company&amp;#39;s twitter, facebook, and blog accounts, I use a special company logo that fits into a square. (The normal logo is rectangular.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I do this for two reasons:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. I think it looks much sharper than having my gnarly mug up there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. In my own opinion, for what I do, I think having a sleek logo instead of a headshot looks much more professional. I want people to associate those tweets, facebook statuses, and blog posts with my company, not me :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But again, great post -- it really did make me sit back and consider why I do what I do, and if I should change it!</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20995189/7837111773983125686/comments/default/2198656829876553851'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20995189/7837111773983125686/comments/default/2198656829876553851'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.smallbizsurvival.com/2009/12/should-you-use-your-own-picture-for.html?showComment=1259859309558#c2198656829876553851' title=''/><author><name>Carter Schimpff</name><uri>http://www.gogarraty.com/blog</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img1.blogblog.com/img/blank.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.smallbizsurvival.com/2009/12/should-you-use-your-own-picture-for.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20995189.post-7837111773983125686' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20995189/posts/default/7837111773983125686' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-13317317'/></entry></feed>
