We have the enabled group policy with a block word list. Works great to restrict non-admin users from creating a team with one of those words in the name. Our admins can create teams with a restricted word in the name on the behalf of our users. We'll then assign the teams owners to the site.
The issue is the non-admin team site owners can not change the site's avatar. They get an error there's a word in the name that's in the block list.

SolutionHi @jimatbutler ,
OK, so here goes.
I thought I could find a method of getting round this by going to the SharePoint site that backs the Team and setting the site image. I was able to do this but the image did not initially take effect in Teams. I think it might have done if I had given it some time.
If you are not feeling like time in on your side, check this out. I then went to set the image again within Teams and it worked. Not sure if it was a fluke but feel free to give it a go.
Thanks
Henry

@HenryPhillipsNimbitech Thanks for the work around. I have changed the image in SharePoint for my test site. Waiting to see if it refreshes the image in Teams.
Do you or anyone else know if this is a bug that Microsoft will be addresses?

Hi @jimatbutler ,
I couldn't comment but if nothing else despite it sounding like a bug I would be tempted to report it via: https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/ but phrase it has a want.
Failing that you could raise it via support process from the M365 Admin Centre.
Thanks
