Update

I've made a few additional instructions and comments to the original post. The link to a working demo has also been included. :)

Updated:

Resolved Username drop down menu displaying in the background of the Flash avatar. View image attachment for the results.

good work


< clicks invisible thank you button >

so why did you set regular avartars to 128x128?
Hmm, now somethings happened with my db too, works like 30% of the pageloades.. and I can't change the template anymore -_-

Did exactly as you wrote.

The modifications doesn't touch vB's database. The Flash codes are client side and should be safe. Forcing the graphics to 128x128px should not slow down your forum in any way since the file sizes remain the same.

*You can change the dimensions to any size you want (as specified in the instructions) or simply remove the "width" and "height" for vB's default avatar from the code. I've always preferred avatars at 128x128px.

Ok thanks !
And ..Strange ..as the postbit_legacy is the only template I can't edit now.. o_0

EDIT: Hmm.. seemed to fix itself. Clicks install !

Assuming that the codes were properly placed, it may be that you need to extend the timeout behavior in PHP's server configuration. Check the code entries once more just in case.

It may have been a server issue. I'm glad you got it to work. Enjoy! :)

Hmm, about the workaround with the usergroup dropdown menu..

Isn't it possible to like.. force your menu to activate itself.. ONLY when flash avvie is showing??

Even if you use a flash avvie AND a regular one??

Yes! :)

I've updated the instructions to version 1.2. If you've installed a previous version make sure to update it.

*Changes made (version 1.2):

1. Conditionals are set in which if you're using a Flash Avatar it will override the default; else it will use vB's default avatar.

2. Conditionals are set in which if you're using a Flash Avatar the User popup menu will display horizontally; else it will use vB's default vertical menu.
