I changed the template directions to put the avatar over the username instead of replacing the username.

Nice update, but that was the first thing I did. Amy, any thoughts about 5 colums of users?

It's not something I'm going to tackle because I don't need it. Sorry.

And you're right....
The thing about those hacks is that I never know how to begin.
So if a coder lik Amykhar posts a hack, I'm normaly able to costumize it to my needs. At least I try to. Cause everybody just wants it a little bit different. A hacker can never make something to everybody's liking. But they always did the difficult job of figuring out where to put something.
And that is why I love this forum so much :)

After looking at the php files and it would be a seprate process from this hack.

This is working great for me! Thanks amykhar!

I notice though, that users without an avatar show up as a "broken image" icon.


Anyway to make them appear as blank space, or a generic "no avatar" GIF or something? Cuz currently it looks ugly (or worse... broken.)

is there anyone to do this in the forum home page's What's Going On? Instead of showing who's online via username, it'd show the avatar. Is this possible?

I resolved this, by the way, by uploading a suitable "no avatar" image to my style's images/misc folder, called "noavatar.gif"

is there anyway of showing this directly on the forumhome's who's online part? i'm actually trying to display it in a module on vbadvanced, but haven't been able too nor do i know anybody working on it.

Do you mean something like this?
