• When the maximum number of displayed authors is reached, a picture representing more authors will appear.
• The photo slightly separated on the left is the author who created this article.

Additional functions:

• When the mouse hovers over the picture, the username will be shown.
• Clicking on the picture leads the user to the author's user page.
• On special pages the profile pictures will not be displayed.
