@trjExpensify this issue was created 2 weeks ago. Are we close to a solution? Let's make sure we're treating this as a top priority. Don't hesitate to create a thread in #expensify-open-source to align faster in real time. Thanks!

Hm, I don't think that's the same issue at all. The OP of this issue is about uploading an avatar "zoomed in" after the group chat is created, and that upload returning to the default avatar.

The tester here refreshed the page in the group chat creation flow, so the avatar cached locally was lost. I'm going to close this as it's incredibly unlikely someone will refresh on this screen prior to creating the group.
