The directory for avatar aren't created on each kunena page, check this directories and all the subdirectories :

/media/kunena
/administrator/components/com_kunena
/components/com_kunena
I don't provide support by PM, because this can be useful for someone else.

No - never use 777 on any folder on any webserver. Its a bandaid to a different underlying problem.

You should be running 644 on most or all folders, but what you need to check is what is the userid and group of your apache server user. You then need to make sure that user is the owner of all files within the httpdocs folder of your server. Lets assume your server uses 'apache' as the user and 'apache' as the group.

JUST AN EXAMPLE:
You would run a recursive
Code:
chown -R apache:apache *
against the content of httpdocs as well as
Code:
chmod -R 644 *

But you need to replace userid and group with the actual one from your server.

777 means that any and all processes on that server can write and change your website.

As an alternative you can configure Joomla to use ftp to access the underlying file system - in case you cannot change the users to the apache id and group. Please see the Joomla documentation on how to configure and turn this on.

Hope this helps!
We love stars on the Joomla Extension Directory . :-)
