If you have included vB's forum/global.php in the PHP script you want to use it in then its automaticly avalible. Otherwise you will need copy the getavatarurl function from admin/functions.php and change the MySQL part to match the format that the other script is using (mysql_query istead of $DB_site->query for example).

I really appreciate your help...but I just can't make this work.

I have tried every combination of includes, requires, PN database connection syntaxes, plain mysql_query queries, playing with the variables all over the place..... you name it.

I've never in my life heard of someone putting images into a sql database....I can't even fathom the reasoning behind....

Here I am 8 hours into this and I can't even get a URL to an image...if someone told me they had to go through all this for an image url I would have laughed at them.

Is there any more that you can help me with on this? It is just plain beyond me and I've lost my marbles trying to get it.

All I want is the URL to the avatar so I can make a simple <img src= link .

Again...thanks for your help..and patience with me.
