- Any chance of guest/no-avatar-selected additions like the original vB2 hack? I can see why you've opted not to show the guest one. Room needed for the login section. Hmm... See, I made customised versions of those avatars and the guest avatar made the place much more inviting.

I had thought abuot this myself; having two extra queries per page in global.php is a bit much.

What I might do now (seeing as I've got to do some other bits anyway) is alter the conditionals so that the New Posts and New Threads only display on the Forum Index.

Any other thoughts on this?


I'm going to look at the template now, see if I can alter it to accommodate a 'guestavatar' option as well.
