User Icons
 

Current version: 1.2.1 (Last updated:4/30/03)
------------------------------------------------------------------
New features/fixes since the last update:
- Optimized code so it uses much less queries on private.php.
- Added instructions I forgot for private.php.
------------------------------------------------------------------

With this hack members have icons next to their name in posts, announcements, private messages, on the who's online and on the forumdisplay page. Users can use a public icon list or upload their own icon just like avatars. They can also choose to not display icons in the user cp. Administrators have various icon options exactly like with avatars.

This is based upon the mini avatars hack but I liked it more if it was exactly like how avatars are handled. A whole lot of the code is a copy from the avatar code except all variables are changed and only a few other changes/additions. But I wrote a full instruction for your convenience. :D
