Well, with over 200 downloads and 32 problem free install's, I though it time to take this out of the beta hacks forum (note, there are no changes to the file in the beta forum, so no need to re-download if you already have the hack installed).
I put this together originally as a walkthrough for an admin friend, and thought someone might find it useful. Althouth technically, my contribution is a couple of simple template edits, it does contain hacks posted previously. Like I said, it's a combination of 2 previously relesed hacks (both credited fully). One by Firefly (avatar hack) and one by MrLister (since your last visit). It combines both of these hacks into a welcome panel at the top of the BB, just like the one here and on a few other sites. I'm pretty much a newbie to vB hacking, and struggled to put this together myself (couldn't find any instructions/hacks etc), but I think I've done an OK job. Maybe this will save a few headaches to others like myself Anyway, here's a pic to illustrate the hack/edit (or whatever it is ) You can see a working verion of this hack here: The Genome Collective Thanks to Firefly and MrLister for providing the PHP hacks in this err, whatever (BTW, if this is in the wrong forum, please (mods) feel free to move it) Happy Christmas everyone. here it is: edit: updated version number to 2.2.6 because it works There are no changes to the files - it's not a new release. Thanks. /edit Show Your Support

In reply to your post in the last thread, I uploaded the images. Can you check and see what the url is it is trying to call the avatars from?
And thanks for this hack, it adds a feeling of (this site just kicked my ass) to my boards, and I like that. After I got a good php editor, It installed easily. (For those of you without one, try www.download.com, search for edit plus 2) |

I noticed it pointed to a avatars directory, mine has it setup as avatar, so I didnt feel like editing php so I just made a avatars directory and uploaded.

Man, whatever you're happy with, but that's gotta be the hard way - I would have just clipped the "s" off the end - really simple, it's only a path
Anyway, it's working fine now, though you might want to change those avatars to a colour scheme that matches your site better. Should be a breeze to knock out a couple of gif's in Photoshop for you guys |
