This user is wearing Vod's avatar. It is quite misleading. Is it allowed?

The only problem is if there is a copyright on that picture and the copyright owner objects to the use of that picture.

I have seen him post somewhere in some signature campaign thread, got me confused for a second, but he's doing no harm.
It's not like someone has the copyrights for their avatar.
