On the [Accounts page on Polkadot Developer Interface](https://polkadot.js.org/apps/?rpc=wss%3A%2F%2Frpc.polkadot.io#/accounts), in the Polkadot Developer Signer, and on many block explorers, small icons (also called identicons) appear next to your account address:

They are generated randomly when you create an account on Polkadot. If you don't like them or want to shake things up a little, you can change the icon theme on Polkadot Developer Interface.
