Not sure why this doesn't exist already. Seems pretty basic but I would like to see the ability to set a players custom avatar file to a url. I handle all player registration and profile editing on my site so it's easy to have a player edit and upload custom avatars but it's difficult to set this file into the servers filesystem. I just want to make an API call to set the avatar to the url.

Re: Avatar URL
Poker Mavens is designed so that all of the file I/O passes through the server rather than relying in any third-party web site URLs. If you allowed players to submit their own URL for an avatar it could initially point to something compliant and then later be switched to a different image that wasn't compliant (i.e., wrong size, flashing GIF, obscene, etc.).
