Video and Avatar

How do I change my settings so the Racoon Avatar is not the first thing people see on my video (I have to change it during the meeting, for some reason)? I have gone in (what seems like) a million times to 'Background and Settings' and tried to check for NO avatars, and it still keeps happening. I've gone out and logged back in. I've even tried to set to No Video at all upon entrance. PLEASE HELP!
