I’m having the same problem. I think it appeared a couple betas ago. I first noticed it when there were no avatars to choose from (as described in [Selectable avatar quirks](https://meta.discourse.org/t/selectable-avatar-quirks/118527)), but now there are avatars added and I get the same empty “change your profile picture.” I tried [safe mode](https://meta.discourse.org/t/53504?silent=true), but there are a bunch of plugins that could be causing a problem.

The solution I’m attempting is to convince the site admin that forcing people to use a set of avatars is a bad idea. 🙂
