The Author Avatars block shows the profile pictures of a post's authors as a row of small overlapping circles. Each circle links to its author's page. Use it in a byline beside the author names, or in a post list where posts have more than one author. You find it in the Content group of the block picker. It goes in a Section, or inside a Group, a Collection, a No Results or a Paywall.
The block reads a post, so it shows only on a post's own page and in the items of a Collection that lists posts. Everywhere else it shows nothing. The pictures come from each author's profile in Ghost Admin.
What it shows
It shows up to three authors of the post, in the order Ghost lists them, from left to right, with the first author's circle on top. A post with more authors shows the first three and no count of the others. A post with one author shows one circle. Each picture is cropped to a circle. An author with no profile picture gets a circle with the first letter of their name. The links always go to the author pages Ghost makes for each author.
To show one author's picture as a larger image, use the Avatar data block instead, described in Data blocks.
