Add avatars to the team page

GitHub exposes public profile images via a stable URL:

https://github.com/abe-101.png

We could use this to display each team member's GitHub avatar on the team pape.

We can do something similar for each of the libraries listed on https://pycal.org/libraries/
https://api.github.com/repos/mergecal/python-mergecal gives you the projects description

I was thinking of using gravatar avatars for the team instead.

Either works.

Gravatar is a better idea
It slipped my mind
Let's go with that

I don't think everyone would be ok with creating an account on gravatar.

@niccokunzmann @stevepiercy @tobixen Have you ever used gravatar?

I think everyone should have their real picture, would look professional ;)

I won't change my gravatar. It's part of my identity. I was a dog in a past life.

I like diversity.

We could also not use Gravatar, and save network requests.

GitHub icon has the plus point of people recognizing you from this website across the projects.

I think: it is the call of the person putting in a PR at this point. There is enough info to act and make a good decision. It is upto Abe to close this issue after merge.

I don't wanna be professional! You can't make me grow up! 🍼👶

[SashankBhamidi]

Haha.

Okay, let's go with GitHub profile pictures as your gravatar usernames? I'll assign it to copilot to work on.
