In vBulletin 3 there is an option for members to upload a profile picture. This hack provides more incentive for members to upload their picture, as it integrates a gallery to browse them all. :up:
In addition to browsing profile pictures, there is an option for viewing signatures. This comes in handy, for you don't have to browse through each individual member. Also, a "edit signature" link is provided for moderators, for fast access to editing signatures that aren't in accordance with your rules.
Other Features
Require pictures to be approved in order to be visible. You can exempt specified usergroups from this.
Thumbnails are generated for profile pictures. You must have GD installed and enabled via the AdminCP options page.
For more insight, refer to the attached screenshots, or install it!
Upgrade to 2.0
Redo steps 7-8, 11-12, 19-20, 26, 27, and 34
Revert the template "modifyprofilepic", and do steps 29-32
Run the following queries:
[sql]
ALTER TABLE `customprofilepic` ADD disapproved smallint(5) not null default'0';
ALTER TABLE `customprofilepic` ADD reason varchar(100) not null;
[/sql]
Notes
This hack does not support uploading multiple images per account.
Profile thumbnail sizes are defined by the attachment thumbnail sizes. So modify the attachment thumbnail sizes in your AdminCP options page if you wish to change the profile picture thumbnail sizes. Be sure to run "re-generate thumbnails" via the vB3 Member Album -> Approve Images" page.
Profile picture sizes (not thumbnails) are defined for each usergroup. Modify a usergroup via AdminCP to change the dimensions members under that group are allowed to have for profile pictures.
3rd Party Add-ons
Pseudomizer has posted a migration script that will transfer your files from my old vB2 Member Photo to the correct tables in this vB3 hack. Click here to view.
Pseudomizer also posted a portal-integration allowing you to display a random profile picture on your portal. Click here to view.
1130 photos and about 500 show thumbnails... this is a great hack, I just hope it can be fixed but understandably, this isnt paid and it certainly isnt #1 on a list.
I don't have time quite yet for this hack :cry:, expect near the end of the month, 20th-30th of August, for an update.
So as to make things a bit easier when I do go to update (and help me from reading through the pages), could someone summarize the problems, or main problem, with this hack? I've had it running on my forum for months now and haven't had any issues with it. I may be able to do a quick update, if it doesn't seem to be a huge issue.
The main issue (for me) is with thumbnails, they dont get generated properly, using the code another user posted I got them to change from printing Array to printing something that turns out as a broken image. There is also a problem with the rebuild function timing out and the thumbnail page being too long (needs multiple pages) but those are minor.
I'm extremely confused. I've done everything correctly (or so I think, redone each step twice [copied original vbulletin 3.0.3 files over and re-configured them]), but in my album page, it shows avatars instead of profile pictures.
Check here for album. So far, aside from this, seems like everything's going smoothly!
Yep - I've got the same problem on a clean install on 3.03. I get the avatar photos for each person who has a profile photo. http://www.efhs84.com/forum/album.php? for the example...

The main problem is that somehow it doesn't work in vBulletin 3.0.3. I see you're still running 3.0.0, so maybe something was changed in the coding from then.
It's okay though, take your time! vBulletin hacks never come before your life, hopefully!
