 * Hello,
 * I am currently working on a site which utilizes Ultimate Member as a source for
   core functionality. The concept of the site includes a need for user profiles
   to be thoroughly filled out, including a profile image. I would like the user
   to be able to set their profile image during registration flow as part of a smooth
   user experience, though it does not seem that this functionality is possible 
   within the plugin.
 * I have seen in previous threads on this matter that the plugin did not support
   this functionality as of a few months ago, though it was stated that the feature
   may be coming in an update. Since I am using the latest version of the plugin
   and have not seen any mention of the feature in the support forums, I am wondering
   if this feature is still being considered for addition to the plugin, or if there
   is an official workaround which will allow users to set their profile image during
   registration until the feature is officially implemented.
 * What is the status of this feature, and is there a workaround which will work
   with the latest version of the plugin?

 * Just a commentary while you wait for an answer. If you force users to upload 
   an avatar (or a wall cover) you will have less user registrations because some
   will quit and not come back, some will have to come back later, some will upload
   something inappropriate for them or the site.
 * Some could even have uploading failures if you don’t set size settings right 
   and some will simply not register as they don’t want to have their pictures online.
 * These are the main reasons I can think of as to why nobody needs that option.
