Hi there! There are a few different ways to get a cool icon under your name when you post. Some websites or forums may have a specific set of icons to choose from, so you can check if there is an option to select one in your profile settings. Another way is to create your own custom icon or avatar using a graphic design software or online tool. You can also search for free or paid icon sets online and use them as your profile picture. Finally, some websites allow you to connect your social media accounts, which will automatically use the profile picture from those accounts as your icon. I hope this helps!
