Hmm, I'm familiar with the UBB avatar bit where it just has a dropdown box that changes the image via javascript. I'll see what I can do

Ok.. here's the original from member.php:

PHP Code:

  $avatarcount = 0;
  while ($avatar=$DB_site->fetch_array($avatars)) {
    $avatarid=$avatar[avatarid];
    if ($avatarcount==0)
      $avatarlist .= '<tr>';
    eval("\$avatarlist .= \"".gettemplate("modifyavatarbit")."\";");
    $avatarcount++;
    if ($avatarcount==$numavatarswide) {
      $avatarlist .= '</tr>';
      $avatarcount = 0;
    }
  }
  if ($avatarcount!=0) {
    while ($avatarcount < $numavatarswide) {
      $avatarlist .= '<td bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}">&nbsp;</td>';
      $avatarcount++;
    }
    $avatarlist .= '</tr>';
  } 


You want to make it look like this:

PHP Code:

  $avatarcount = 0;
$avatarlist.="<tr><td bgcolor=\"{firstaltcolor}\"><img name=avatarswitch src=images/blank.gif></td><td bgcolor=\"{firstaltcolor}\"><select name=newavatar onChange=\"switchimg(this);\"><option value=\"\">";
  while ($avatar=$DB_site->fetch_array($avatars)) {
    $avatarid=$avatar[avatarid];
$avatarlist.="<option value=\"$avatar[avatarpath]\">$avatar[title]";
/*
    if ($avatarcount==0)
      $avatarlist .= '<tr>';
    eval("\$avatarlist .= \"".gettemplate("modifyavatarbit")."\";");
    $avatarcount++;
    if ($avatarcount==$numavatarswide) {
      $avatarlist .= '</tr>';
      $avatarcount = 0;
    }
*/
  }
  if ($avatarcount!=0) {
/*
    while ($avatarcount < $numavatarswide) {
      $avatarlist .= '<td bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}">&nbsp;</td>';
      $avatarcount++;
    }
*/
    $avatarlist .= '</tr>';
  } 


I just commented out all the old stuff.

Next you want to edit your modifyavatar template.

At the top of the template find $headinclude . Put this in after it:

<script language="javascript">
function switchimg(newimg) {
var URL = newimg.options[newimg.selectedIndex].value;
document['avatarswitch'].src=URL;
}
</script>

Also, you're going to need a blank gif image for a starter. I've attached one for you. It's 1x1 and transparent. Should do nicely.
