I would appreciate a programmer if they come up with more useful tools instead of these kinds of things, which are not useful, but are for entertainment only. Don't get offended, OP, it's just my personal point of view. As you can see, people liked your idea and they started using it. Of course, I am not one of them Smiley. But don't lose hope, I would expect you to make some extensions or build something unique to make forum life easier.

I don't have any idea for new tools, so I am not the one who can suggest to you what to build. I appreciate people like TryNinja and LoyceV who developed some useful tools that we use every day. Or at least once a week.
C'mon, it's not that we all need useful things - fun stuff is also needed. And everyone have to start from something - usually it's small and simple things. And when they gain experience, they can start making more difficult things.

However, allowing image uploads might require the OP to implement some security measures, such as file validation, and possibly set limits on image size to avoid storage issues, which is another work.
Alternatively, allowing users to insert an avatar via a URL (like from Imgur or TalkImg) might be a simpler and more storage-friendly approach.
It already sounds a bit more complicated. But if OP is able to implement such things, I think that it would be best to use 3rd party websites to hosts these images, as you mentioned.
