I've searched more than a bit, but I can't find the "avatar thing". I'm not trying to make my site like like this one, but I would like the users's avatar up top with their name.

I've tried several different options - adding this to forum_welcometext:

Trying "$bbuserinfo[avatarurl]" instead, etc. Nothing works. By not working, I mean nothing shows up, except when I try one of the avatarurl vars - then I get a broken link image.

Can anyone show me the light?

Firefly,

I finally found the post you were referring to, or at least I think it is - the one where you add the info to index.php for avatarurl, and give alternate images for no avatar and guest users? (I am at work now, so I can't find it).

Anyway, I did that, and here's the weird thing - it does show the image, but only the "No avatar" one. For some reason, even when entering the "avatar.php etc etc" directly for the image link, it does not pull up the avatar. It just shows no image. In the case of using the $avatarurl in the image tag, it apparently can't look up my avatar and goes to the default one. You can see what I mean at my site below.

Any ideas?

ixian,
I should have mentioned that my code only works for users with custom avatars, like we have set up here.
Making it support regular avatars will be a bit different.

If you want it so bad, I'll do it...?

Yikes!

Darn. I was hoping I could just take the same code that makes the avatars appear in posts and move it to the front page. Could you give me an idea of what's different?
