I seem to remember a decade or so ago, using an Avatar as your profile photo was stopped, no longer allowed. Seems Mingle2 has had a change of mind.
Do you think they are OK, what are your thoughts.

Interesting take… I think apps change all the time anyway. I’m more interested in the person behind the profile though :wink:

The Avatars are being put up by the site..

Anyone that does not put a picture up has a Avatar Picture put in place till they add a picture..

It use to be that unless you had a real Picture of a person up you could not even post in the forums.. Which was nice..

Thanks to everyone for the comments, and information, not realised the Avatars were site generated for those without a photo. I am fairly certain that back in the day there was a time when you could post your own Avatar. I was sorry when they were stopped, whilst I never posted my own, I thought some were really funny and brightened up the forums, but some were less so, which may have been the reason they were stopped. Unless, they were never really allowed and it was just a brief time before Mingle2 clamped down on it.
