Please allow us to just upload an avatar image.

Please make it so I can just upload my avatar image.

I am sure that lots of people like Gravatar, but I am not a big fan.

Unlike basically every site I have ever been to this site does not let me simply upload an image for my avatar. And unlike most other websites I actually really really want a good avatar.

What takes me 40 seconds on most websites has been dragging on over 20 minutes now. And I won't use Gravatar for anything else anyway.

This is also a good idea since the avatar people want might be different from their normal internet activities. Or heck, even from campaign to campaign.

Please make an option where we can choose to have a Gravatar account, and a normal "just upload an image" option.

OK..... so you can just upload an image.
Fail on my part.

So I guess my new request is that it is easier/more obvious how to change avatar from one's account page.
I was about to say, it is that simple. You just were doing it wrong :P

We just added the ability to set an avatar directly on Roll20 from your account page. If you don't, we'll pull from Gravatar like before (so if you already have one there, you don't need to do anything). But if you want to use one different from your Gravatar, just hover over the image and press "remove", then drag and drop. This will set your avatar on the Roll20 site, in-game, and here on the forums (although it may take a little bit to show up new on the forums). Thanks!
Thanks Riley D. I gunna check it asap. Then i will post the results. Again thanks.

:D
Works perfect from Gravatar.
i wonder ... we could use animated avatars? like gif or somthing?
