Look for the code below in global php

and replace it with this.

$avatarurl = fetch_avatar_url($bbuserinfo['userid']);
$avatarurl = iif($avatarurl, $vboptions['bburl'] . '/' . $avatarurl, $stylevar['imgdir_misc'] . '/noavatar.gif');

The code needs cleaning up a bit but it works

Thanks for taking the time to answer me.

I tried what you suggested but unfortunately it didn't work. As soon as I turn the weclome block off in vbadvanced the avatar in the welcome hack goes off too. Even after making your suggested change.
