This extension adds an option to each user's page to change his profile image. At the top of a user's page users can see their current profile image and the link "Userimage". Clicking on this link opens a dialog offering several options for setting a profile image:

  • A new image can be uploaded.
  • A image has already been uploaded to the wiki, or an image from the web (through URL) can be used.
  • A new avatar can  be generated.
