This is just waht i was looking for thank you very much .

Alright, there appears to be some sort of bug in this. If a remember uploads a new avatar, the new one will appear in the postbit, but in their profile, it's a broken image. And after deleting the two plugins for this hack, nothing is showing in either the postbit or the profile.

How can I fix this?

Did you _also_ undo the template change? People have been using this for ages and no ones reported such a issue.

Please tell me what version of vBulletin you are using?

Can anyone say whether this plugin overcomes the bug where if a user purposely selects the "don't show avatars" option in their profile, they won't then see the "Default Avatar" for every user? This is a common complaint in every other default avatar hack, but I only saw one person mention it for this one. Maybe this one solves it? --Thanks.

If the user selects "don't show avatars", the default avatar is not displayed. It works as you'd want it.

I tried to install this on my 3.6.1 and i got this message
manage products
then add inport
I picked the xml file
default_avatar.xml

This file appears to be a Plugin, not a Product. Please use the Plugin Manager to add this file.

Use the plugin manager.

hows that?

Very odd that the default avatar will not show up in the memberlist, but it does show up for me when I view a users profile that doesn't have an avatar set. It also shows up in the postbit for any users that don't have an avatar set.

It isn't a big deal. It probably would be if it was the other way around. :)

My board is running 3.6.2

Actually this mod is designed to work in posts & profiles only so I don't think it's been designed to work in memberlist too.
