 * Hello :D.
 * I am currently developing a theme which can be seen here:
    [http://oqueuefansitedev.co.nf/](http://oqueuefansitedev.co.nf/)
 * And i want my users to be able to upload a custom avatar for use on the forums/
   posts / whatever.
 * I know there are alot of plugins out there that accomplish this, but i’m trying
   to avoid using plugins whenever possible.
 * Is there a wp_theme_support() or anything like that i can include in my functions.
   php to accomplish this?
 * Or a way to do this without using a plugin?
 * Thanks! 😀

 * I don’t know if this is what you want, but in my one theme i was uploading picture
   on my own theme_settings. This is a link where i was able to do it.
    You could
   probably use it to do what you want. [http://www.webmaster-source.com/2010/01/08/using-the-wordpress-uploader-in-your-plugin-or-theme/](http://www.webmaster-source.com/2010/01/08/using-the-wordpress-uploader-in-your-plugin-or-theme/)
