Xbox 360 Personal Gamer Pictures 101

Xbox Development Team member Daryl Welsh (IndieGames) must have gotten so many questions about Xbox 360’s personal gamer pictures that he decided to answer them all in his recent blog entry.

To those who are still in the dark, the personal gamer picture is a new feature with the Xbox 360 Spring Update. You don’t need the Xbox Live Vision camera to get this nifty picture. In fact, you can get a new image now. It’s that easy. Personal gamer pictures will only be seen by people on your friends list (such a lucky bunch!). The not-so-special ones see your public picture.

The Xbox Live Vision camera can be used to take your own photo, which again, only the chosen ones will be able to see. Slated for a Fall 2006 release, the camera is being tested by the Xbox Team. So there’s a chance you’d see personal pictures of Xbox Team members. Seems they’re having a fun time with the new feature.
