Remote avatars
 
Yeah, I know vB hasn't got remote avatars implemented because of the security. But, hosting avatars on a large board takes a lot of expensive bandwidth.

I figured I could host the avatars for the forum crew (admins and mods + private forum members), as this would eliminate the problem of someone getting an admin's cookie/session.

But the normal users don't need this, who'd want to "hack" a user with no special privileges anyway.

So, could someone make a vB3 hack for using remote avatars? :)

Follow Steps 1 and 2

then for step 3 use the follwoing replacement:

PHP Code:

                if ($avatarid == 0)
                {
            
// begin custom avatar code
            
global $bbuserinfo;
            if ((
$bbuserinfo['usergroupid'] == <GROUP ID TO ALLOW REMOTE AVATAR>) OR ($bbuserinfo['usergroupid'] == <ANOTHER GROUP ID TO ALLOW REMOTE AVATAR>))
            {
                
// begin custom avatar code
                
require_once('./includes/functions_upload.php');
                
process_image_upload('avatar'$avatarurl);
                
// end custom avatar code
            
} else {
                
// get maximum filesize/dimensions etc.
                
require_once('./includes/functions_upload.php');
                
$userinfo = &$bbuserinfo;
                
$imagepermissions = &$userinfo['permissions'];
                
$type "avatar";
                
$maxwidth = &$imagepermissions[$type 'maxwidth'];
                
$maxheight = &$imagepermissions[$type 'maxheight'];
                
$maxsize = &$imagepermissions[$type 'maxsize'];


                if (
$avatarurl!="" and $avatarurl!="http://www.") {
                    
// check valid image
                    
if ($imginfo=@getimagesize($avatarurl)) {
                        if ((
$maxwidth AND $imginfo[0] > $maxwidth) OR ($maxheight AND $imginfo[1] > $maxheight)) {
                            eval(
print_standard_error('error_imagebaddimensions'));
                        }
                    } else {
                        if (!
$allowimgsizefailure) {
                            eval(
print_standard_error('error_imagebadurl'));
                        }
                    }
                    
$DB_site->query("UPDATE " TABLE_PREFIX "user SET avatar2='".$avatarurl."' WHERE userid='$bbuserinfo[userid]'");
                } 
            }
                        
// end custom avatar code
                


**UNTESTED**
use at your own risk, i'm not quite sure what you want, but you should be able to modify that to suit.
