Currently the player icon is determined with a random generator function depending on the position of Saturn in the sky during full Moon.

This might create some issues so:

For stk 0.8.2 the default icon should be tux (you can change it later).

For stk > 0.8.2 Local account use like previously the tux icon If you have an online account you can upload a picture on the website interface
We need to do some research because this might result into a problem with bandwidth. For instance Add a limitation of resolution (like 128 * 128) and size

Aeh - the player icon was not picked randomly, it was based on the unique player id, which is 1 for the first player, ... - and it happens that Sara has the intuitive name '20_sara', which makes it the kart with index 1. I've added an offset so that player 1 now gets tux as icons (followed then by willber, adiumy, sara). I've renamed this ticket for the rest, which is postponed
