Avatar Opacity For Online/Offline Members

[Loyalty4Life]

I think there is a vB2 hack that shows a person's avatar slightly shaded if the person is offline. But if the person's online, his/her avatar is at 100% opacity.

Can this be done for vB3? Thoughts on the idea?

Anyone?

From vbulletintemplates.com ...using search "Opacity" in all forums..and did a little quick writeup..


<if condition="$onlinestatus==0">
<if condition="$show['avatar']"><td class="alt2"><a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]"><img src="$avatarurl" alt="<phrase 1="$post[username]">$vbphrase[xs_avatar]</phrase>" border="0" style="filter:alpha(opacity=10) /></a></td></if>
<else />
<if condition="$show['avatar']"><td class="alt2"><a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]"><img src="$avatarurl" alt="<phrase 1="$post[username]">$vbphrase[xs_avatar]</phrase>" border="0" /></a></td></if>
</if>


For some reason, it wont work..but the opacity bit works..figure out the if statements and your away :D

Oooh, I think I'm gonna implement this one. What a brilliant idea :D

Hmm, I expect that the variable $onlinestatus might be only specific for the template postbit_onlinestatus, i'll try and figure this out when I get home.

I had everything to do with the avatar in postbit_onlinestatus, then in postbit I yook out the avatar stuff and user $post[onlinestatus], the image opasity worked with no avatar's getting loaded. prolly have to be coded in

Same at our site. Our lead programmer was up all night trying to figure it out, which I was reloading an old VB2 database. That poor bastard.

u noticed how the simpliest of hacks dont work so good on vb3 and if they do u have to go about it the hard way - and yeah i hate phrases who ever invented them wants locking up :)

rant over :)

* lasto puts both hands up so Curll and Slappy Nutz cant wave to one another.

There is channels for that sort of banter and it aint here :)

Does anyone have an answer to how to make this work?

[Slappy Nutz]

I will tonight, dammit!

Heres the new problem I have, if I put this code
<if condition="$onlinestatus==0">
<div class="smallfont">
<br /><a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]"><img src="$avatarurl" alt="<phrase 1="$post[username]">$vbphrase[xs_avatar]</phrase>" border="0" style="filter:alpha(opacity=10)" /></a>
</div></if>
<if condition="$onlinestatus==1">
<div class="smallfont">
<br /><a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]"><img src="$avatarurl" alt="<phrase 1="$post[username]">$vbphrase[xs_avatar]</phrase>" border="0" style="filter:alpha(opacity=100)" /></a>
</div></if>
in postbit_online status,remove the $post[onlinestatus] from below and put that in place of the avatar code the shading part works but none of the avatars get loaded and mouse over just brings up 's Avatar insted of Username's Avatar. Someones gotta know what to do here.
