Any progress?
Please turn off this forum! The avatars are the only advantage over a mailing list. This is bitter but true. Give something better a chance. Give up!

I'm pretty sure that avatars will be disabled until at least the new forum is out and being used - as theymos has stated it was removed due to an exploit made possible by avatars and though I believe the exploit has been patched he is not keen on restoring the functionality.
From what I've heard, pretty much. The exploit involved uploading a php script instead of an image into an executable directory, then using it to put some (slightly) malicious Javascript into the forum's MOTD so that it ran on every page. I followed the troubleshooting and analysis through IRC while it was being fixed immediately after the hack, but it seems that avatars may be disabled for a while anyway.
Any progress?

Just wait till Whiskers sees this... 
Yep, even with the message there are threads about that
Been seeing this for a while now, been making this forum feel a bit impersonal to me, as it's nice to attach an image to people names, else you kind of get drowned out in the sea of newbie names.
How come the functionality is currently disabled? Can't imagine a 100x100 pix avatar below 100kb can really that much of a drag on a server or host ...
