update avatar by external system

[ghiboz]

hi all!
I wish made this thing: I wish deny the users to upload or change her own avatar, and after, by an external program ( I know the id of the user) set the new avatar (atm suppose an url with the image): how can I force this thing (mantaining the good things of the xenforo avatar, like the dimensioning, etc...)
thanks again!

looking in depth i've seen in XenForo\ControllerPublic\Account.php the function
actionAvatarUpload, that seems the function that upload the avatar, update the db...
how can I call this function? thanks again
