Get started faster with Material Tailwind avatar component for web or mobile applications where user identification matters.

The avatar is an important UI component that provides a quick visual identification of users/people. The avatar is usually used to portray people in social media apps, chat apps, and forums.

We created a series of avatar examples to help you build easier your application or website. All these exemples are styled with Tailwind CSS and based on Material Design.

Check them below.

Avatar Examples:

Default Avatar

Use our default example of placeholder for user profiles with Tailwind CSS classes for a responsive and rounded design.

  <img
    src="https://docs.material-tailwind.com/img/face-2.jpg"
    alt="avatar"
    class="relative inline-block h-12 w-12 !rounded-full  object-cover object-center"
  />

Avatar Variants

See below how you can implement different shapes for your Material Tailwind avatar.

     <img
        src="https://docs.material-tailwind.com/img/face-2.jpg"
        alt="avatar"
        class="relative inline-block h-12 w-12 !rounded-full object-cover object-center"
      />
      <img
        src="https://docs.material-tailwind.com/img/face-2.jpg"
        alt="avatar"
        class="relative inline-block object-cover object-center w-12 h-12 rounded-lg"
      />
      <img
        src="https://docs.material-tailwind.com/img/face-2.jpg"
        alt="avatar"
        class="relative inline-block h-12 w-12 !rounded-none object-cover object-center"
      />

The default or circular variant works great for social media platforms and chat applications. Rounded avatars can be used in business applications, professional networks, or team collaboration tools. The square variant works where a more formal tone is wanted (for example, in document management systems).

Avatar Sizes

See below how you can modify the size of your avatar from small (6x6) to large (110x110 pixels) using Tailwind CSS classes. This way, the avatar can be responsively scaled to fit different design contexts.

      <img
        src="https://docs.material-tailwind.com/img/face-2.jpg"
        alt="avatar"
        class="relative inline-block h-6 w-6 !rounded-full object-cover object-center"
      />
      <img
        src="https://docs.material-tailwind.com/img/face-2.jpg"
        alt="avatar"
        class="relative inline-block h-9 w-9 !rounded-full object-cover object-center"
      />
      <img
        src="https://docs.material-tailwind.com/img/face-2.jpg"
        alt="avatar"
        class="relative inline-block h-12 w-12 !rounded-full object-cover object-center"
      />
      <img
        src="https://docs.material-tailwind.com/img/face-2.jpg"
        alt="avatar"
        class="relative inline-block h-[58px] w-[58px] !rounded-full object-cover object-center"
      />
      <img
        src="https://docs.material-tailwind.com/img/face-2.jpg"
        alt="avatar"
        class="relative inline-block h-[74px] w-[74px] !rounded-full object-cover object-center"
      />
      <img
        src="https://docs.material-tailwind.com/img/face-2.jpg"
        alt="avatar"
        class="relative inline-block h-[110px] w-[110px] !rounded-full object-cover object-center"
      />

Avatar with Border

Use the following example to create avatars with different border styles and shapes. Each avatar retains the object-cover and object-center classes to ensure the image fills the allotted space and remains centered, while the p-0.5 provides a slight padding inside the border.

  <img
    src="https://docs.material-tailwind.com/img/face-2.jpg"
    alt="avatar"
    class="inline-block relative object-cover object-center !rounded-full w-12 h-12 border-2 border-gray-900 p-0.5"
  />
  <img
    src="https://docs.material-tailwind.com/img/face-2.jpg"
    alt="avatar"
    class="inline-block relative object-cover object-center w-12 h-12 rounded-lg border-2 border-green-500 p-0.5"
  />
  <img
    src="https://docs.material-tailwind.com/img/face-2.jpg"
    alt="avatar"
    class="inline-block relative object-cover object-center !rounded-none w-12 h-12 border-2 border-pink-500 p-0.5"
  />

Avatar with Text

You can use avatar with other components as well. Our example below which includes typography shows how to form a complete user identity block.

Avatar implementation best practices for developers:

• Make sure that the avatars are responsive, visible on various devices and screen sizes.
• Use ALT text for accesibility and seo.
• Optimize avatar images for fast loading (recommendation: JPEG/ WEBP for photos and SVG for icons)
• Provide users with easy ways for uploading or modifying their avatars.
• Use default avatar for new users.
