Tailwind Avatar Radio Picker (Profile Selector)

The "who's watching?" screen as a proper form control: profile photos where the active one scales up, gains a bright ring and full colour while the rest rest slightly dimmed. The double ring is ring-3 ring-trb21-acc ring-offset-4 ring-offset-trb21-bg; the sprung lift is motion-safe:. An "Add profile" tile shows how to mix an action into the row without joining the radio group.

What changed in the port

Which parts became utilities, which stayed CSS, and why.

  • The double box-shadow ring became ring-3 + ring-offset-4; the depth shadow composes alongside it as shadow-trb21-lift.
  • filter:saturate(.7) brightness(.8) became two filter utilities, each undone independently on hover and check.
  • UI upgrade from the CSS original: the "+ Add" tile the original only described is now built — a real <button> outside the radio group, with its own focus ring.
  • UI upgrade: names rose from #84848f (5.2:1) to 7.3:1, and focus rings clear the accent ring with a 10px offset instead of colliding with it.

How this works

Rings, not shadows. The original built a gap ring and an accent ring from two box-shadow spreads; ring-offset-4 paints the gap in the stage colour and ring-3 the accent, still composable with shadow-* for depth.

Faces are content. Every photo's alt is the person's name, and the visible caption matches, so the option announces as "Amara, radio button, checked". The Add tile is a real button — arrow keys never land on it.

Make it yours

  • Accent: --color-trb21-acc; keep ring-offset-trb21-bg matched to the stage.
  • Calmer: drop the scale-112 lift.
  • Size: size-[92px] on each image and the Add tile.

Gotchas — read before shipping

  • ring-offset-* is a solid colour — change the stage colour and the offset must follow.
  • Filter the image, not the label, or captions dim too.
  • Keep scale deltas ≤1.15 to avoid mid-animation blur on low-DPI screens.
