In buddypress under general settings there is an option to set a default avatar when a subscriber signs up if they don’t have a pic to upload to their profile.

the question is… can i create my own avatar that would be the default?

if so, how can I do this?

I tried looking in the images folder in buddypress to find a .gif file of an avatar, but no luck, unless I was looking in the wrong folder. all I want to do is change out one of the default avatar image files and use my own buddypress. anyone have any ideas?

you find “mistery man” in wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/images/mystery-man.jpg

is a raw solution but it work

ok if selecting mystery man, and say i had my own avatars, ( say 200 of them ) and i wanted a random one instead of the default … how would i do that?
