@brownsmart I don't think you can remove them but you can always upload a new one.

Seems like a bit of an omission... gh#3458

Didn't you used to be able to upload an avatar if you had the imgur plugin too? Or did I imagine that.

Yes you can upload a new avatar but you can't just remove the old one without uploading a new one - which can be a bit of a bother with gravatar if I recall correctly.

Yes replacing is an option, but did you know that when you replace it the avatar the actual file it self doesn't, the previous image stays in the image folder.

Thanks @julianlam
