Avatar Contributions.

An avatar refers to a 184x184 image visible on an individual's Steam Community page. Avatars have no effect on gameplay, and are intended to identify and differentiate players within the Steam Community. In-game, each player's avatar is visible next to their name on the scoreboard. If a player is killed, when the freeze frame of their killer appears, their avatar will be shown alongside their name. If the killer is one of the player's Steam Community Friends, then a buddy icon is shown next to their avatar.

According to official guidelines[1] on selecting an avatar, users may not upload offensive, vulgar, or avatars specifically prohibited in the Steam Online Conduct rules avatars.

After the Manniversary Update, the 'Contribute!' section on the Official TF2 Site was replaced by Workshop guidelines. Avatar submitting is currently unavailable.
