Hi all, site profile avatars that were uploaded have been involved in "the great purge of 2024" (sorry), and normal users can no longer upload avatars. You can stick with the default, pick one from the gallery (it will be expanded) or use the new avatar generation feature based on your username. All part of the new UK law on user content I'm afraid, I don't have time to go over thousands of uploaded images or the time to constantly approve individual uploaded avatars. I'll be improving our new generated avatar feature as time goes on, Patreon supporters get extras on it.
