Got a few ideas about avatars
- Allow URL linking
- Also the ability for the user to be able to remove their avatar.

Ay removing it is kind of obvious, i'm still totally against linking elsewhere though, how hard is it to save it to desktop then upload it?
From an admins perspective not only do you have the problem of waiting for it to load (imagine if someone linked to one that was hosted on sortitoutsi.net!), or the site being down, then there's also the fact that it's just not very nice to other webmasters, I don't like people hotlinking to my images so why should I do it to others?

Keeping everything on here is far better than your site throwing up 404 errors for images that are no longer hosted on another domain.
Think of sortitoutsi.net, its error logs are huge and thus it slows the site. How much of that is due to missing files I wonder?
