Help:Avatars

You can upload an avatar to represent yourself on the wiki. It will appear in several locations, and gives users another way to give themselves an identity.

''Note: The user avatars listed here are for the 2008 social profile system found on a few wikis. The new 2009 Blog system uses a different global avatar system.''
