How can i set up an image as profile picture?

It seems like it has been disabled since the forum MITM a few months ago, but i would like to set up one so, do i need a better rank as forum member or is that disabled forever?
Since the last forum hack, the options of setting avatars was disabled permanently for this version of forum by theymos. They suffered a hack which forced them to do so. Forum member group cannot enable your changing of avatars.

I just wonder, someone please explain how exactly adding a little picture as your avatar makes whole forum compromised for hacker's attacks. :/

Maybe some type of injection attack?

By the way, the topic's question should be added to the newbie FAQ, since its common topics about it(but still less than the ones about activity and waiting time)
Not mug newbies read about the FAQs, they just create a topic and ask questions immediately without researching much.

You have to be high enough member to be able to get picture ability. And when you enter settings of profile it says ''changing avatar currently unavailable''.

There is no way you can do that.
It is not related to member rank.
The avatar feature will not come back before we have the new forum software (expected to be ready in 2015).


This has been discussed many times in the past, check the Meta Board. They will be allowed in the new forum software
idk when will new forum software release

Please take a look at https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.5069851
