Now installed the 6.x dev version for the first time. Enabled the module and tried as the admin user. Have a problem and a question about avatar priority.
1) In my user settings page "Replace my user picture with the gravatar for my e-mail address." option is selected. It says "If you have a valid gravatar for your e-mail address, it will replace your current user picture.". I have both gravatar and a user picture uploaded to drupal, but gravatar does NOT replace the user picture that I uploaded via user settings page. I still see the image uploaded to my local drupal profile. Gravatar picture is shown in my profile only after deleting the local image from my server. If I upload a picture to my local server, again local picture is show instead of gravatar. I selected the "Replace my user picture with the gravatar for my e-mail address." option, so shouldn't the gravatar image be shown in all cases?
2) I want to disable local picture uploading for avatar. Is there a way to set that users can use only gravatar? How?

1. Sorry, I should change the help text in the user account. Currently the behavior is the uploaded user picture always has priority over the user's gravatar. See #334609: Users should still be able to upload a user picture and override Gravatar.
2. I've opened a new feature request for a permisson to disable the picture upload form: #464562: Add a permission to disable the user picture upload form.
