Feature request

Which Nextcloud Version are you currently using: 31.0.7

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently, Circles (Teams) in Nextcloud only allow a name and description. There is no way to assign a picture or avatar to a team.
This makes it harder to visually distinguish teams in lists, menus, or when collaborating across multiple teams. Especially in larger organizations or communities with many teams, a visual representation would improve orientation and usability.

Describe the solution you'd like
It should be possible to upload or assign an image/avatar to a Circle/Team.
This picture should then be shown wherever the team appears (e.g., in the Circles app, sharing dialogues, Collectives, Talk channels linked to a Circle).

Describe alternatives you've considered

  • Using emoji or prefixes in the team name – but this is inconsistent and not visually strong.
  • Relying on text descriptions – but this slows down identification in the UI.

Additional context
Other group-based systems (e.g., Slack, Microsoft Teams) allow assigning pictures to teams/workspaces. Bringing a similar option to Circles would increase clarity and improve user experience.
