Avatars stored outside domain.

Want to host avatars on a remote server (outside my domain)
Want Vbulletin via user cp options to get a list of avatars from the remote server and list them as they normally do if I had stored the avatars in the DB.
Instead of posting the location of the avatar from the DB, I need the script to post the URL to the actual avatar on the remote server and place it in the USERS custom avatar field for them (so if they choose an avatar from the list and on my server its http://myremoteserver.com.ips/avatar.gif, need that URL to be placed in the URL field under Custom Avatar)
Then when user presses submit, the AVATAR is now their avatar.

To make it "very user friendly" you need a hack. But consider this system too:

Create a HTML page with all your avatars displayed and under all of them post their URLs too. Then in your choose avatar page, link this page smt like: "click here to choose your avatar" and ask your users to enter the URL of the avatar they choose to the "You can enter an URL of your avatar" form field.

Easy, simple and does not require a hack.. :)

True, but Im taking the lowest common denominator when it comes to users coming to my site (ie they dont know what copy and paste is, or what a URL is, or what an avatar is, etc etc)

Rather have it easy for them then get 100 emails asking me how in the world are they going to use the avatars I offer.
