Mini Mods - RoG's Xbox Live Avatar in Posts

Okay this is my first release. for postbit legacy

Screenshot at the bottom.....

Create a new profile field or use an existing one for xbox live gamertag.

First step, you may have already done this.

In Postbit.css find

.postbitlegacy .after_content {
 position: relative;
 width: 100%;
 clear:both;
}

and replace with

.postbitlegacy .after_content {
 position: relative;
 width: 100%;
 clear:none;
}

Second Step.

In postbit.css

find

.postbitlegacy .signature, .postbitlegacy .lastedited {

underneath that code you will find

margin-top: ?em;

replace that number with 17, so it will look like this.

margin-top: 17em;

Step Three

Now go to the postbit_legacy and find

{vb:raw template_hook.postbit_messagearea_start}

add after

<vb:if condition="$post['fieldx']"><img src="http://avatar.xboxlive.com/avatar/{vb:raw post.fieldx}/avatar-body.png" align="right" width="150" height="300"/></vb:if>

Replace the x with xbox live profile field number.

Thats it

Hope you all enjoy it

Works great, but i have an issue with the quote box.. see attached pic.

It was colored in & it blocked the avatar, but now i made the background clear so you can at least see the avatar. Is there a reason the quote box is extending beyond, & into the avatar image.?

Anyway to fix.?

Thanks

So that worked great (i should have looked at earlier posts), but now that i upgraded to 4.2 the quote box is still good, but it keeps all text at 80% width too all the way down the post, not just at the avatar.?

I like how it used to wrap around the image instead.
Can this be fixed easily.? It's not a huge deal, just curious.

Thanks

Hoping someone can help with my issue

You can see by the image that it cuts some of the video off at 48 seconds where the video is actually 1.04 long
I can click to remove adverts.etc or change quality either

Go to your bbcode_video template and change the width and height of the youtube player there

Mind If I ask a really Dumb question? No not that one...

I was wondering, this would be unique to each individual user correct?
Kinda would seem stupid if not...
So I was also wondering how the user would input their unique id and where?

Then once that was done, why not use it as their avatar instead of the AVATAR and move it out of their post area all together? or be able to choose it as a Signature?

Seems like it would be clean and efficient and not create any issues with posting.
If you have not done this WHY?

Now the really Dumb one.
Can you Teach me How to make a persons Avatar (prefer Signature) their XBOX live character?
I think it is pretty cool Just reading you guys are able to even do this stuff...
I am running VB 4.2 patch 3...

Also would wonder if it would work on VB5 the same way?
I do see the Live Avatar mod, but I still wonder about the Signature mod?

[Inspector G]

I knew it was a dumb question sorry about that...I found the mod for profile
Never Mind that one wont run on 4.2 p 3 it was 3.8

[Inspector G]

No reply's at all...
Still wonder if this will run on 4.2 I see in a post above someone is running it on 4

[marccap]

I have it installed on 4.2 and working

[Inspector G]

The next thing I would like to ask, since I see so many pages and then revisions...

Does anyone have the correct code to start off with and instructions or is the only way to get it too completely sift through the entire thread a post at a time?

I know that sounds lazy, not at all...

I just am not attempting to screw things up so I can then go all the through the thread post by post to fix it, when I could have just skipped the whole process with a couple lines of code, this is way over my head.

But I would like to be able to have this on my site working it looks awesome...

Thanks again for at least telling me it runs on 4.2...
Ok I am going for it...
I think I see some of the answers to a couple questions I had asked...
