I know there are several requests for profile pictures. But I wanted to justify why they should be and the idea of how this feature can be implemented.
Justification: For many users, Proton Mail and other services (Drive, Calendar) are the main services they use on a daily basis. For many people, a profile picture is just something important, it can be a selfie, or it can be a company or individual logo. Proton provides the "Proton for Business" service, and as you know, businesses want their account to be as professional as possible. Users with their own domain in the email address probably want the same.
Idea for implementation: Adding a profile picture involves sending that picture somewhere to Proton's servers. So this forces Proton Team to have extra space on the server (one for profile pictures, the other for Proton Drive). I came up with 3 points that might be a good solution to implement this feature.
1. Setting each photo in 1:1 format, where the maximum size would be 256x256 or 128x128,
2. The ability to add a photo only in Mail Plus, Drive Plus or Proton Unlimited plans, it may also be only for Proton Unlimited, it's up to the Team's decision,
3. Adding a profile picture would take free space, adequate to the size of the profile picture file, from Proton Drive. This photo could appear in Proton Drive as a file, e.g. profile_pic.[format of uploaded file], or not appear in Proton Drive, but take up space from it (so Proton Team would not need additional space to store profile pictures).
