Let's clarify something: I am not in favor of "photo avatars". I don't want my photo under my username. I am in favor of putting whatever the hell I want under my username that lets me express myself. People who don't want to see avatars can turn them off. There is absolutely no justification for the hand-wringing and bizarre what-if worst cases being trotted out. None.
