Transparency in avatar?

[Duckface]

When my users are uploading an avatar with a background they always seem to get a white background. Does anyone have any solutions to this what it seems a common error? I have tried both a gif and png and they both add a white background.

I believe this happens automatically with avatars that have transparent backgrounds.

One way to change this is to open up the avatar in an image editing program and fill in the background you want manually. Then upload it to the forum.
