In an effort to personalize the experience in the Canon Community we will be retiring the legacy profile avatars on 01/20/2022 and we encourage you to upload your own image if you have not already done so.
Please review the Community Guidelines and the FAQ for additional information.
Q: Who will be affected by this update?
A: Anyone who has registered as a member in the community and selected a profile avatar “From The Community” will have the avatar replaced with the generic profile image. We encourage you to personalize your experience and update your own image.

Q: If I selected my avatar “From My Computer, From My Albums or From Another Site” will I have to upload that image again?
A: No, your avatar selection will be carried over during this update.
It would be great if the personal avatars would show up correctly througout out the site. In many places, a very fuzzy and pixelated version displays. The generic avatars though look crisp everywhere.
While I didn't go through all the locations where one's avatar is shown, the following are problematic:
- upper-right-corner of the site
- Likes Given To listing
- Popular Authors listing
- In the 'Reply to the topic...' box.
It does show up properly though in any discussion thread.
Note that I'm viewing the site on a Mac with a Retina display, these images appear to not even be normal resolution, so probably an issue with non-retina displays too.
