Avatar attempt.
Update: I coped the link to the uploaded picture, selected (no pic) in 'Personalized Picture', checked the 'I have my own pic' box, pasted the link and pressed 'Change profile'.
There's still no avatar.

Second Update: It doesn't show the avatar in 'View my Profile' and immediately after completing the steps above, it wasn't in my posts. Apparently, it took a minute or more to appear.
