Would I still be accepted within the Buddhist community even though I'm gay?
Your acceptance is more dependent on the human beings around you than by the Buddha. Scholars say that in early Buddhism the subject of homosexuality didn’t even seem to be considered as it was never specifically mentioned. In Buddhism, there are rules regarding sexual practices but those rules focus more on consent and respect.
So basically the Buddha really doesn’t care about your sexuality as long as you're respectful and everything is consenting. (Which IMO is how everyone should feel)
