What's up here? I can't add an avatar to my account. Even one of the lame canned ones.

The avatar changes is completely disabled as far as I know, but the interface doesn't tell you so. You upload, or choose a picture, whatever, then it just has no effect. Pretty lame...
6000BTC are kept from donations, suposedly to improve the forum. Shame....

Monero's privacy and therefore fungibility are MUCH stronger than Bitcoin's. 
This makes Monero a better candidate to deserve the term "digital cash".

This really needs to addressed. Just put a text next to the option and say disabled. People are wasting hours trying to get their avatar up by the hundreds.

Pretty sure everybody's trying at least twice, for instance once with upload once with url. That's precisely 2 wasted trials. Then you think "maybe my picture is too large?" and you try again with a reduce one, etc. Multiply by number of users... that's hours wasted for humanity, it doesn't have anything to do with being smart/not smart.
However, changing the text so everybody knows it's pointless in advance, is the smart thing to do (or just the normal, logical one).

Someone stressed should do a sticky about it. I mean, obviously there is demand. Did I say demand? I mean Bitcoin, sorry.

haha, now I see all the posts.   This is what I get.    I tried about 8 times before I posted in a thread then saw this post.    Wasted about an hour.

It should be stickied or etc...   This does increase traffic (not BW but potentially a significant number of SYNs).

No matter where you go, there you are.
