iCloud avatar disappears every time I leave the Settings option
Why has this particular Avatar disappeared every time I leave, and then return to, the Settings option?

Ah, so that is the browser view! :)
I found 163 files it could possibly be, most likely...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/ABAssistantChangelog.aclcddb-shm
But...
To find out if it's system wide or user specific, try this...
Open System Preferences>Users & Groups, unlock the lock, click on the little plus icon, make a new admin account, log out & into the new account.
Does it work in the new account?
Thank you for your response BDAqua, the graphic in my opening post is MacBook Pro 15 2 ~ macOS High Sierra v10.13.6, and the graphic below is iMac 21.5 ~ macOS High Sierra v10.1.6 .........................
The same 'problem' arises on both devices!

I have now reviewed > iCloud > Options > and > iCloud > Settings > via 3 Users, on two devises, BDAqua, and the result is the same. Upon return, the chosen avatar has disappeared from the Settings display, but remains on the Options display!
I am inclined to agree with your opinion therefore DBAqua, that it is down to Apple, and, it is supposed to be that way ................. maybe!
Is there a way of approaching Apple directly, for clarification on this matter?

I have ........................ dropped Apple a wee note BDAqua:
Dear Apple,
if I change my avatar at > iCloud > Settings > it displays at > iCloud > Options > and other locations, E.G. Contacts, so that is just fine.
However, if I log-out from iCloud, and relog-in, to Settings, or even if I simply refresh the Settings display, it has disappeared; although it continues to display at > iCloud > Options > and other locations
Is this what should happen?
~R.
I will let you know if I get a response!
~R.
What device are you seeing this on?
Mine forgets it on that page, but when I go back to the 1st iCloud page the Avatar is still there!?
Yep, same with me BDAqua, the Options screen appears, and reappears, displaying the Avatar added in Settings,
just fine .............

PS ~ Yes it's a Browser display / Mozilla Firefox v99.0.1
It's something at Apple's end, not sure if it's supposed to be that way or not.
I will look back at this again tomorrow BDAqua, it is getting close to my bedtime here right now!
