Description

Current UI to manage profile avatars is confusing.
It is not clear how to use the provided form.

  1. It's not clear how to set a random avatar. It isn't even mentioned that this is possible at all.
  2. It's not obvious how to unset a custom avatar and change it to use gravatar.
    Do I have to click "Delete Avatar" or select the radio button "Lookup Avatar By Email Address" and "Update Avatar"

Screenshots

Screenshots of a first draft will follow.
