Frequently Asked Questions.

Q. Why do I need such a thing, you ask?

A. Some admins might like to have this available to their members if they find some users avatars offensive. Also Max Taxable asked for it to be made. :)

Q. Does this work everywhere?

A. No, it is designed to only work in the postbit.

Q. Can the option be added to the post foot control area?

A. No, there is already to many mods that add options there, and this would just further clutter it up.

Q. How do I change the avatar that are shown ?

A. Edit the setting, Ignored Avatar Image and add the image name and type in the option. Should look similar to this, No.png. Image must be loaded in the folder, ozzmodz_mods/ozzmodz_ignore_avatar/images.

What does 'Marking As Installed' do ?

* It helps you to stay on top of updates - members who have installed modifications will be notified whenever new updates are available.

* For security issues - vbulletin.org will contact all members who have installed a modification whenever a security issue is brought to their attention.

* Marking a modification as installed also helps me know how many people are using my work, giving me extra incentive to provide more features and new modifications.

I appreciate the support!

This is a good one Ozzy. Is there any issues with this mod being activated if avatars are turned off in the usercp settings?

Not that I can find. :)

Everyone needs one of these. Thanks ozzy.

Nice mod. Marked as installed :)

Thanks, glad you like it, and thanks for marking as installed. :)

This Mod quickly put the quietus on avatar complaints at one of my boards. This should be native vB and I highly recommend it. Installed and nominated.

Good stuff, glad it did what you needed. :)

I'm even finding myself using this, blocking avatars I don't like, on my own boards. Had no idea this would be as useful as it is.

Yeah sometime you don't even know if you need something till it's there. :)

Deff agree. I ended up installing this and it works great. No problems with the usercp thing so far. Marked as installed

As always, thanks for keeping vbulletin fresh ozzy :)

Glad you like it, and thanks for marking as installed. :)

Also glad to hear no issues yet with the usercp thing. :)

Cool mod!
Considering installing, however..
Can one be made for signatures as well?

Thanks!

bop5 made one for that already

Ozzy what if we don't specify and image to replace the ignored avatar with? I'm considering this for my users with photosensitive epilepsy triggers but replacing an image with an image is a bit pointless for them.

Granted I think I'll use this mod anyways as it is quite handy :)

As it is now, it would show some text like ozzy47's Avatar.

Create a transparent background PNG image with nothing else but the transparency, make it the size you want it to be in postbit, then upload that to your server and have this Mod point to that.

Will replace the avatars selected with, empty space.

I took the liberty of creating that image for you, see attached. 150px by 150px.

Yeah that image should suit some people. Perhaps in a future update, I can add a option in the ACP settings to display the replacement avatar or display nothing at all.
