I may be missing something super obvious, but, where/how can I upload custom avatars that will be assigned to my users on signup.
I see admin/config/files allows us to link to a URL, but how do I upload them to MY server for selection?

The discussion revolves around uploading and assigning custom avatars in Discourse. Timelord asks how to upload avatars to their server for automatic assignment upon user signup. merefield suggests checking the ‘Selectable avatars’ setting in site settings, referencing a Meta Discourse topic. Timelord clarifies that the setting doesn’t confirm automatic assignment. merefield initially suggests a plugin might be needed but later shares a key detail from the referenced topic: newly created users are automatically assigned a random avatar from the list, confirming the desired behavior. Timelord confirms finding this information as well.
Selectable avatars in site settings? (and associated settings).
See the Files section for complete list.
Thanks - I thought this might be it, but it does not say it will be autoassigned.
I want to be sure an avatar other than the default letter is automatically assigned.
Good point, I’m not aware of that function, perhaps others will chime in, but you may have to build a plugin to achieve that (in which case consider Marketplace)
FYI the topic is here:
Thanks,
I guess a simple workaround would be to use something like imgur.com for the avatars, and add those URLs, however I ideally would like to have all images served from my infrastructure
Oh wait, from that topic:
?
Just found it also!!!
