Documents the avatar improvements landing in Flarum 2.0 (flarum/framework#4431):

  • Static images (JPEG, PNG, BMP, WebP) now converted to WebP on upload (was PNG)
  • Animated GIFs now preserved as .gif instead of being flattened
  • New php flarum avatars:convert-to-webp CLI command for batch-migrating existing avatars
  • WebP accepted as a valid upload format

Added as a notable change in the Backend > Miscellaneous section of the 2.0 update guide.
