Overview
One of the "hidden" functionalities which really is a gem and life saver for every admin that wants their sites to rise above other is the ability to easily change the default avatars and maintain that change with ease.
A common belief is to replace avatars in their original location, and while this would obviously work because its just an image that is being replaced, it is not a good practice to do that as your custom avatars will be overridden with every upgrade of JomSocial
In this article, we will show you how to properly replace the avatars on your JomSocial web site.
