Comment:

 First of all, I love the new interface.  Drag and drop is so much more
 user-friendly than trying to find an image in a file input box.

 Secondly, sorry for getting to this late!  Here is what I have in mind:

 '''Users - Profile > Change Profile Photo:'''

 '''Groups - Manage > Photo:'''

 Although I love how the "Delete" functionality works when you remove a
 photo and dynamically switch out the current photo on the page, I think
 the "Delete" link is not as prominent as before.

 What I've done is hide the "Delete" button from the Backbone avatar nav on
 the frontend and move the older "Delete" block above the uploader.  The
 "Delete" button is still visible from the WP admin's "Extended Profile"
 area though.

 I've tried to make this work well if JS is disabled and I think this works
 okay.

 The `.bp-uploader-window` CSS in the patch is to fix this bug:

 Would love to hear what everyone else thinks about this.
