For awhile now on the Kairosoft Wiki, there are occasionally these weird avatar uploads that always seem to have the following in common:
 * Almost always a picture of a real life person
 * Always 1/3 the size of a normal avatar
 * The user rarely ever makes any edits (including no user page). If they do make an edit, it shows they have only ever edited on this wiki.

Some examples: (note that as they have made no edits, their user page links show up as red)
 * User:Eduardo.jenir
 * User:Khankalam786
 * User:Patrik.akerstrand
 * User:Neelpatel14789
 * The rest of the avatar uploads can be found here, with almost all the red links having this issue, and a few of the non-red ones as well.

So I guess my question is this; why does this happen / who are these users? My guesses are that it depends on their country, or maybe something to do with mobile. Either way, it's usually rare that people use their personal photos as avatars, and the fact they are shrunk makes this stand out.

Thanks, and have a nice day,
