Description
## Description
On the [Places page](https://decentraland.org/places), the creator attribution section is showing a circle with the creator's initial letter instead of their actual profile picture/avatar from their Decentraland profile.
## Expected Behavior
The creator's Decentraland profile picture should be displayed next to their name.
## Actual Behavior
A fallback circle with the creator's initial letter is displayed instead of their profile picture.
## Steps to Reproduce
1. Visit https://decentraland.org/places
2. Observe any place card that shows a creator attribution
3. Note that the creator avatar shows a circle with a letter rather than their profile photo
## Screenshot
Reported via Slack — screenshot shows the letter-circle avatar appearing in the creator attribution area on a place card.
## Possible Causes
- The profile image URL is not being fetched or passed correctly to the avatar component
- The Decentraland profile/catalyst API call for creator metadata may be failing silently and falling back to the letter avatar
- The image URL may be returning a non-200 response or an invalid format
