This plugin allows Redmine users to upload a picture to be used as an avatar (instead of depending on images from Gravatar).
Users can set their image through the /my/account page. The administrator can also manage users' avatars through the /users section.
Place this plugin into the folder plugins/
of your redmine installation. Make sure that the folder is called "redmine_local_avatars".
Update the gems, run any migrations:
bundle install --without development test rake redmine:plugins:migrate RAILS_ENV=production
And restart your application server.

Luca Pireddu [email protected] at CRS4 (http://www.crs4.it), contributed updates and improvements.
This plugin was written for use in an intranet with simple requirements in
mind. In particular, not much attention has been payed to security issues
and there hasn't been any thorough testing. Use it at your own risk.
Patches are welcome.
Avatar images are treated as attachments to User objects with the description 'avatar'. The AccountController is patched to provide the images, and the UsersController and MyController are patched to provide mechanisms to add/delete avatars.
