Profile Enhancements - Username Image

Hi all, this is a very basic template edit to allow username images.
I'm not a coder, so I'm hoping that the more experienced members will help out in perfecting this.

What does this mod do?

This mod allows you to change the username display on the postbit to an image. If a URL is added to the profile field it will display the image, if it is left blank the normal text username is displayed.

What doesn't this mod do?

Nothing else. I'm hoping that some of the more experienced can help turn this into a full modification with usergroup controls, size limit controls, browse local files and upload controls, etc. If you are able to help out with this, please let me know



This runs off of the User Profile Fields in vb, I would suggest you make it not user editable, as I'm not sure if there are any security risks with allowing your members to insert a URL to an image.

Install instructions are in the zip. If you use, please be kind enough to mark as installed.

Updates
------------------
.02 - Missing </a> added. This made the rank part of the profile link.
.03 - Added instructions for applying the username image to user's profile and who's online.
.04 - Added height restriction to image tag.

Not at the moment no, it's a bit more complicated to do those.

you know how you can make this modification more productive?

A lot of people when they come on the forum, leave their email id in it.. then some dumb spammer grabs those email ids with softwares and makes them vulnerable to spam

This mod of yours can actually turn those email ids into images and protect them from the robots that grab email ids.

Hope you'll take this suggestion and release a mod to that extent.

Regards.

I found a small error.
To display it in the member profiles, it does not work, instead of displaying the image of the users profile your viewing it displays yours. Can anyone help fix this? I've tried editing the code but no luck.

Hmmm you're right, not sure why I didn't notice this, I'll try and look into fixing it, not got a great deal of time spare at the mo, but I'll do it as soon as I get chance.

I'm fairly sure it has to do with that small snippet of coding for the 'MEMBERINFO', but I can't seem to get it right. I either get it so it displays no images, or your image and the person name, or nothing.

Okay i fixed it to the point of it working on Posts only, Although as for member profiles...it either does not show at all, or shows the same image on every profile.
