Just had a look at the code. In order to save certain infos about the avatar (ie. its dimensions), into the database, the URL is parsed and the image is then temporarily stored on the server to run the calculations locally (has to do with PHP-security-restrictions). In other words, the error-message is misleading.
I can't change the PHP-code either to program a little workaround, so it looks like avatars are, at the moment, unchangeable. I'll go talk to MH about introducing something like an LFE-change-avatar-day

This question comes from a random member's curiosity: there's no way to change avatars if admins use the Admin CP and administrates another user's profile or something like that to change the user's avatar, is there?

Correct. I just tested it, an avatar-change via the Admin Panel is not possible as well.
RE: avatar change - MH-Razen - 03-25-2013
could have answered you that ... - you wont even be able to use ftp
avatar change day still means a high risk for me since - in case of another attack - I will have to pay my hosting company. I dont really want to take that risk untill everything is fixed - and that could take a while...
