I think that there whould be away to completely BLOCK all users from having avatars. I want to do this on my site, but apparently, you can't. I want a kid safe forum, so please add this tool.

It no work =( the lowest you can make it is 20x20. People can still see the picture. Please make a tool that takes away avatars!

There is something you can do.
But you have to do it one by one for all the members.
Go to Users and Groups>search users> in the admin only fields of the profile click NO for "Can display avatar :"

edit: I was having a senior moment about the suggestion.
