How to get a local player's avatar and put it on a decal?????
So I did some research to see if I could find a script that would get the players avatar and change the image to it. I found this script which doesn't work, I put a local script in a decal tell me if this is wrong.

2 | script.Parent.Image = "http://www.roblox.com/thumbs/avatar.ashx?x=352&y=352&format=png&username="..game.Players.LocalPlayer.Name |

I dont think this logic is possible, if theres no search on the developer hub then its impossible to do. Only option is to use :getuserthumbnailaysnc JesseSong 3916 — 5y

you can do the function :GetUserThumbnailAsync(), i dont know much about it the code below is from the wiki
01 | local Players = game:GetService("Players") |
02 |
03 | local player = Players.LocalPlayer |
04 |
05 | -- Fetch the thumbnail |
06 | local userId = player.UserId |
07 | local thumbType = Enum.ThumbnailType.HeadShot |
08 | local thumbSize = Enum.ThumbnailSize.Size420x420 |
09 | local content, isReady = Players:GetUserThumbnailAsync(userId, thumbType, thumbSize) |
10 |
11 | -- Set the ImageLabel's content to the user thumbnail |
12 | local imageLabel = script.Parent |
13 | imageLabel.Image = content |
you can read more about it at https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/api-reference/function/Players/GetUserThumbnailAsync
