Mini Mods - FH Profile List

The Skinny
A site I work on was using Zoints and with that, used the forumhome random profile feature. Well there were way to many problems with Zoints for me to even consider keeping it, but the owner of the forum liked the random profile feature, so I told him I would make one for the default vB profiles. So I did and figured I would release it here sense I couldn't find this mod on here anywhere.

What does it do?
This mod allows the admin to display a horizontal table on the forumhome, that displays a number of boxes, which the admin chooses, that contains a users name that is linked to their profile and their avatar scaled down to make the box look organized.

What can the admins do?
The admins can enable or disable the mod.
The admins can choose to list the users based on one of a couple things.

1. Most Recent(Latest registered members.)
2. Latest Visited(Latest members to visit the forum.)
3. Latest Activity(latest members to post on the forum.)
4. Random

The admins can restrict what usergroups can see the mod.
The admins can specify the width and height of the table cells.

Installation

I have attached an example of it both working and not working on our forum. On the right it is fine, on the left the users avatar does not show at all and only has the user name. The rows and columns would be great as an admin cp option for this mod.

I don't know what the problem is. I'm building a brand new forum area for one of my sites, installed the latest VB and this plugin, and all works just fine, this was a brand new install. Then on my older sites, it works just fine. All I did was follow the directions of the mod, worked on three sites so far, from VB 3.7 to VB 3.8. No clue since I didn't make this mod.

What I do want to know, as I'm no coder, is how to make it where I show profiles in rows of two, like two on the top row, two on the second row. Once I have my new site finished, where I need the 2x2 code, I'll show it to everyone, as right now I'm not ready to give the URL out as I want it completed. I will add, right now I have a row of two random profiles and it works just fine. Thanks, rg sends!

Ok, I finally ran into the problem you are talking about, but only because I merged users from an old forum into a new forum. The users from an the older forum, their avatars did not transfer, so their accounts are empty, but it doesn't pick up the "no avatar" photo. Not sure why, but obviously it's a DB problem and all I can do is encourage the user to update their avatars via mass email. Once they load the avatars, I'm hoping that's not a problem.

I also modified where I put the link to the random avatars, I have it on the side bar, upper right on this site, http://www.photonewschannel.com and it's working cool, other than that one minor problem. Again, before I merged the users from the old site, all was fine and all new users to the site, the mod is perfect. Just my thoughts, not sure how to correct it, but I can live with it for now. This isn't my mod, but I think it's well worth it because even if an avatar doesn't show up, the link to the user's profile does. Thanks, rg sends!

I cant seem to see the profile list on that site you gave. I am interested in getting it vertical if you could post the code for it to be vertical I would appreciate it. Thanks!
