Default avatar url and colors should be skinnable #8697
Description
Since the default avatar urls are images, not css, they cannot be changed by a skin/theme.
ref: https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-react-sdk/blob/master/src/Avatar.js#L53-L60
In #7569 it was mentioned removing the images and replacing them with background colors. This seems like a good idea. I think that issue got lost/ignored since #8474.

Yes, I agree we should change to CSS for these. It's a bit silly to use images here.

It also would be great to define
config.jsoncss variables inlight-custom/css/_custom.cssto be able to customize the avatar background AND foreground color …robintown commentedon Jul 16, 2021
