An avatar is the small image you see on your profile. It also shows in other locations, such as next to your name on Message Wall posts. It's a good way to identify yourself on the wiki, giving people a feel for who you are.
To update your Fandom avatar:
- Hover over your avatar at the far bottom left of the page, and click "View Profile"
- Click the "Edit Profile" button top right of your profile page
- Click the pencil icon at the bottom right of the current avatar to open the avatar tool:
You can repeat the same process at any time to change your avatar to a new image!

Gamepedia-original wikis
Avatars on wikis that use Gamepedia features (i.e. those which use "UserProfile" pages) are controlled by Gravatar, a free website that allows you to tie an avatar to your email address.
Simply visit https://gravatar.com and create an account using the same email associated with your account. Once you’ve selected an avatar on Gravatar, it should only take a few minutes for the image to start displaying on your wiki account on affected wikis.
Note: avatars have to be rated 'G' in order to be displayed.
