ENS App Adds Header Images and Security Improvements
🖼️ ENS gets headers
ENS App introduces header image customization alongside key security upgrades.
New Features:
- Set custom header images for your ENS profile
- Gasless changes when using the 'Upload Image' option
- Upload images during registration and subname creation
Security Enhancement: The app now fetches avatars and headers from ENS's metadata service instead of directly from records, providing:
- Cleaner image display
- Standardized formatting
- More secure image handling
This update allows users to further personalize their ENS profiles with both avatar and header customization options.
New in the ENS App: set a header image for your ENS name. And if you use the 'Upload Image' option for your header or avatar, you can make gasless changes anytime. Just like your avatar, now you can personalize your profile with a header. Try it now → app.ens.domains
