Hello Nasman,

You can override the control MonoSoftware.MonoX.ModuleGallery.UserAvatar, and implement your own functionality for saving the file to the file system in the SaveAvatar method. You would have to do the same for fetching the avatar image.

Unfortunately there is no "switch" from saving avatar to the database to the file system.

Please let me know if you have further questions.

Regards,
Dalibor
