Member Photos vs Avatars - long term?
How Do I?
I hope someone can offer some clarification:
We’ve been using EE for years with many members, always relying on photos (not avatars) for profile images. After upgrading our site to EE 7 and revising the old site, I noticed the following:
The control panel now only supports uploading and managing avatars, not photos. Why avatars? Most platforms use a profile image instead?
In the Entries Tag documentation, there’s no mention of photo-related variables like {photo_filename}, yet it still works. Why is that?
Is one of these features being phased out? Should we now store member images as avatars, or continue using photos?
My take is there’s only nomenclature differences at play here. Avatars ARE (or, can be) photos and vice versa. An Avatar is merely another way of saying “profile image”, as an avatar IS an image and a photo is an image. Images for everyone, I guess…

Buonasera dalla costa di Amalfi! Ho notato un annuncio mentre navigavo su un sito di risultati calcistici e ho deciso di provare. Pensavo di smettere perché non vincevo mai nulla, ma poi ho testato ivy bet e la sorte è cambiata radicalmente. Ho vinto una grossa somma alle slot che ha risanato il mio saldo negativo. Anche i giochi di poker sono seri e competitivi al punto giusto. Sono felice di non aver rinunciato prima di trovarlo.
