Comment:

 Back from the dead, I'd like to propose we enhance `bp_get_group_avatar()`
 in a few different ways:

 * Allow it to work on the Group Creation screen.
 * Provide sane defaults in the event it's called outside a group loop.

 These two small tweaks eliminate the need to guess at whether to use
 `bp_core_fetch_avatar()` or `bp_get_group_avatar()` for the group creation
 screen, and allow `bp_get_group_avatar()` to always put out some image,
 rather than create PHP notices or exit early.

 Patch imminent.
