Avatar 😁

• Visualizer

  Show what the avatar looks like before posting or updating

• Link to upload or select avatar

  Accessible link for a user to select

• Placeholder image

  If a user hasn't uploaded or added an avatar yet there should be a placeholder e.g. a default icon, or the user's initials

• Acceptable file types

  Tell the user what file types are allowed (JPEG, PNG, SVG)

• Status change updating avatar

  This doesn't have to be apart of the avatar component (it can be a banner or toast for example), but it is possible to incorporate it

• Alternatives

  If a user doesn't want to upload an image, offer an illustrative alternative, as it's better than nothing and can still convey their personality

• Editing uploaded avatar

  Allow a user to crop and resize their avatar before saving it
