Just curious if they have been disabled globally by the admins or what, I can't see anyone's avatar on the site, wondering if it's just me or I've missed some big event relating to their removal since I was last her some months ago.

EDIT: Nevermind, I can see them all now. Very strange.

Maybe you were on the mobile theme? It's basically the default without avatars.
