Profile picture?! Look at this @Aswer
@DenWalker I mean picture to appear next to the name of the user. In the game, in online friends tab, forum posts... Similar to chess.com and ICC.
It would be nice for everyone to be ABLE to have a profile picture... but I believe it was rejected years ago as an anti social media thing.
I also think that it would be a great feature.

Useless advertisement. Soon gifs appear. The atmosphere becomes that of a sandbox. Who needs to see an avatar Everywhere? Games, posts, messages, questions... all kiddy stuff.
Think people want to see yours? Put it in your profile. Simple enough. The site is CLEAN in appearance. No need to ruin it. A kiddy sandbox atmosphere? Go to CC. You'll be happy.
The difference is lichess is more about playing chess, not creating a "social network".
An avatar is a "form" of advertisement. Half the people will change theirs every other day. Don't really see the point of "pictures" appearing everywhere you look.

I agree with mdinnerspace.
