+UPDATE+
+Thanks to Link14716, your selections stay selected after your users save them in their profiles. The ZIP file has been updated with the new code. Or if you just want the code then check out THIS post.
+IF YOUR HACK HAS THE ANIMAL 'CATEPILLER' MAKE SURE YOU FIX THE SPELLING ERROR!! Silly me, I misspelled the word 'catepiller'. You need to update /includes/functions_showthread.php and the MODIFYPROFILE template from the word 'catepillar' to 'catepiller' with an E.

*Note: I no longer support this mod in any form or fashion. Please don't PM me with questions about it.

I'd never use the "other" version just because he asks for money to remove the link to his site. I respect the original creators here for this hack and appreciate the effort and time involved.

Thanks!

I haven't read through all 16 pages of this thread, but I was wondering if anybody was taking on this hack now that the original developer dropped it? THe idea seems kinda lame, but I was thinking... is what would make it much better is if as the life of the "pet" dropped, the image would change as well so that I could specify a new image of the users pet "dying". This would make users feel guilty about their poor pet and want to post... OK maybe not, but it might be kinda koo.

What would be need is if someone took this and ran with it and then integrated it with ushop ucash!

I updated my forums with this hack Postbit Alignment now vB3 Pets works fine when the alignment is set to top but if you move it to the left the vB3 Pets disappears.
Anyway of getting it back on left alignment as having vB3 Pets show on top setting makes the user details section massive.
Check out what I mean at xLAN.

Mega ditto!!

i'm installing this hack for a client/friend of mine.. it is useless to add uShop things in that, it'S just a status display, no feature, no actions.. take care, the description is the ToDo List, not the actual thing.

How can I add more pets? I tried to add a monkey but the picture won't show.

For the record: I have let the comments Automatik made go, until now. I'm not starting a flame war or anything. The Petz hack I created was completely different to this one and I did try to talk to Automatik about improving his hack before I even started on a new route. After I had created PetzVB Automatik offered to do some images for me - but unfortunately that fell through...
Also the advertising and what not - I was not aware of the ethos of the board.
So now that that is cleared up... Who wants pie?
