It was nice eye candy, but really only added to the load.

Great mod I tweaked it a little to work in my footer.

@ GamersChallenge

I had the same questions and actually came up with a very easy answer. I just used the unknow.gif wrapped by the Guest conditional. Heres my code, feel free to weak as needed.

<div style="float:left; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 5px;">{vb:raw ss_avatar}</div>
	  <vb:if condition="$show['guest']"><div style="float:left; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 5px;"><img src="images/misc/unknown.gif" alt="" title="" /></div></vb:if>

Here's a link, check the footer to see it in action. http://www.scalemotorcars.com

Opp's I should be a little more clear on where to look. Bottom right with the kit motor boxart. Once a member log's in that changes to the users avatar. :up:

[FReeSTER]

very nice mate thanks

[Emeralda]

Really nice, though because we use kinda big avatars (150x200 even) and not square, I had to modify the code a bit for a 100px high header:

$ss_avatar = "<a href=\"profile.php?do=editavatar\"><img src=\"$ava_urlX\" height=\"90\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Avatar\" /></a>";

It doesn't set the width, letting proper proportions to stay.

blah can delete.
