# [avatar_upload] shortcode issues

 * I appreciate this nice plugin. I have a front-end page using the [avatar_upload]
   shortcode. I have 2 issues:
 * 1. I put some introductory text above the [avatar_upload] shortcode in the front-
   end page. However, the introductory text is displayed below the avator form, 
   not above. Even if I switch to the default theme the problem persists.
 * 2. Do I understand this correctly: Using the [avatar_upload] shortcode, when 
   a contributor or subscriber wants to update their avatar from a prior avatar,
   first they have to Remove the old avatar, then click Save, then upload the new
   avatar in a second form submission? If so, I think this confusing for the contributor/
   subscriber. I’d like to suggest letting them upload a new avatar and have it 
   replace the old one in one step, like other member websites. (In fact, that’s
   why I’m trying to add introductory text in #1 above…)
 * Thanks again for the plugin and the good support that you give even in your spare
   time.
