[FEATURE] Forum Avatar Image Upload

edited November 2012 in Need Help
I have been reviewing many of the links GSA has created. So many of the links are user profiles of different types.

I see on many of the pages that the profile has been "Viewed by xxx people." 

BUT it really looks like the profiles are created by a bot as they don't have any avatars uploaded. This surely must be amongst the easiest ways to give the profiles more credibility?

Would it be possible to have a folder full of avatars and GSA selects one to use when creating the profile?

Would anyone else find this a useful feature? 

Again...I'm trying to use GSA so that humans will look at and use the links created.

    Of course you can modify the scripts to upload avatars. Though some sites are picky on type/size and you have to fight a lot of problems here. Just be warned. ;)

    So it's a lot of work to get it to upload avatars is what you're saying and not really worth it...fair enough. Was just asking as it seems like a super useful feature and will make the profiles look a lot more real and more likely to get clickthroughs from actual users. 

    Maybe an idea for the future...if we can come up with an easier way to do it.

    The work here would be to find out what image types are supported by all platforms + what sizes they allow. And than you need to find images that suite there needs (or convert them). Thats not really worth the work.
