So, from what I can tell, it's impossible to change a user icon (aka avatar) once it's chosen but I don't know if registering for a new account allows you to upload one instead. Does Paizo Publishing have any plans to let either happen? I'm sure many people would love to use their own avatars if given the chance.
It's not impossible to change your avatar to something else (you can do this through the Messageboard Settings under My Account). We do not have any plans to allow for user-submitted avatar images.
I change my avatar almost once a week. :-)
It is quite possible to change your avatar, as I just did. I clicked on "Change My Avatar" on the "My Account" page, selected a new avatar, and voila! I am no longer Dr. Lucky.
Or were you referring to the name? I don't know any way to change that without adding a totally transparent alias.
Transparent? You mean, you can tell it's me...

Sorry about deleting that message -- I didn't realize you were about to quote me.
I don't care a lot about custom avatars but there are many cool illustrations from Paizo books that I hope they uploaded. Some of them are already kinda old and when I see them in a book I think «I could use it for one of my aliases»
Sort by date will give you the most recently uploaded. I believe they added over 700 new images in September or thereabouts.
Yep, I check them often as I love creating aliases and searching more fitting avatars for older ones. I think I wasn't still here in september anyway. I think I joined later.
There's generally an announcement in this thread when new avatars are uploaded.
