avatars are presently disabled due to an exploit being found to be utilizing them. atleast that is what i was told when i asked this same question about an hour ago.

If one can not confer upon another a right which he does not himself first possess, by what means does the state derive the right to engage in behaviors from which the public is prohibited?

Maybe read the other threads in Meta?
Is it too difficult?

People need to stop posting these threads without reading others first. I am concerned as well, as I look like a total newbie with my avatar, but reading is really not that hard.

The signature campaign posters adding useless redundant fluff to their posts to reach their minimum word count are lowering my IQ.

And I was just about to make a thread in this forum about problems with my avatar  D. Glad I had a quick look first now.

Is there an ETA on when they'll be back? Suppose it's not a massive deal, but it helps identify yours and others posts quickly and easily.

There was a recent attack on this forum (not the previous man-in-the-middle attack but another one before it) that used avatars.they have been disabled until the admin solves the weaknesses in avatars.

Like people would read it, or even look. Would be better if added to the profile page where you set the profile picture.

I think that would be a wise idea. Still, I'm sure we'd still get one or two of these threads haha.

The avatars are disabled because of a vulnerability in avatars allowed a hacker to abuse it. They are down from about a month ago. Adding a warning might be better since most users thinks it's an issue in his computer/connection.

Somebody mentioned putting a note on the avatar section in peoples profiles. I think a AVATARS ARE CURRENTLY DISABLED message would cut these threads down by about 99%.
