Is there a way to load a file from an external site (cURL?) and assign that as a member’s avatar? There must be other ways to do than just manually via the avatar edit form page?

The files are not loaded into the media library, but stored in wp-content/uploads/avatars/USER_ID/-
I can do that. Is there a way I can make BP create the various sizes?

Super, so I’m now pulling it in with imagecreatefromjpeg(‘http://…’); and saving it with imagejpeg().
Anyway to auto crop to get the images into a nice square shape?
