<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote><font size=1 face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote> kycable,
You might take a look at the way I implemented it on my site:
http://www.cfm-resources.com/r/richard/beta/
Goto the Register page and you will see the drop down for Avatar and click on the <img src="icon_smile_question.gif" border=0> to see a pop-up with the avatars displayed.
The only problem is that I am using the filesystem object to display the avatars dynamically, which means that all you have to do is have the avatars name "avatar_xxxx.gif" and it will display them in the drop down box for the users to pick from. I even implemented a way so that each individual member can have their own specific avatar by setting up a directory (using their member #) and those will show up in the drop down box as well.
Some hosts don't allow you to use the FileSystemObject. I know for sure that WebSamba doesn't support it, now sure about Brinkster. cfm-resources.com for the moment still supports it. <hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote></font id=quote><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" size=2 id=quote>
I just tried top sign up and this is what I get

cfm-resources.com recently reloaded Windows2000 to fix some problems and haven't reloaded ASPEmail yet. I just forgot to disable the e-mail functions. |

Kenno (NOT KEENO <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle> Sorry was reading a topic earilier)
Well I have thought about the picture reloading several times, but I have found that if the exact picture is called it come from the cache it loads quickly. My dad who has AOL, on a Saturday night at 9pm with a 33.6k modem when to that topic mentioned above and found it loaded in about 5 seconds. (That was with 3 pics. (mine, my wifes, and the no_photo.gif). With the idea of removing the no_photo.gif that would be 2 pictures. Plus by turning the number of topics to say 10 per page or so should take care of any speed problem.
That is true not many have added their picture but with this addition it may allow people to say "well I'll throw something up there" Even if it is just a picture of a smiley face or something.
In fact I am thinking about have two pictures in your profile, a image picture, and a topic image. (I have to get Access 2000 again though. I can't find Disk 1 of Office 2000) <hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote></font id=quote><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" size=2 id=quote>
Cool! Atleast I'm not the only one who have thought about it! With you explaination above I don't see why we shouldn't have this photo feature in the forum. <img src=icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>

I put this change into my forum and something very strange happened. It shortened the width of the message area by around 1/5 or perhaps 2 inches .. the right edge has moved in. Does anyone have any ideas of why this happened? I used the Change you specified in your post, Richard
If you want to see what I mean, go to

Also, is there any way to make the pictures have a "Maximum" size but to allow pictures with smaller sizes retain their original size? Right now it forces them to 150x150 and really distorts the pictures that were made smaller, whether it be shorter or thinner.

Anyone?
Please, I got the mod to work fine in my topic page, but when I checked the profile page , the image won't show ( I get the box with X sign in it and the M_Name is correct though, in the img's alt part). I made sure that the M_PHOTO_URL is correct. I even checked the MEMBERS table and it was there too. the strPicture = 1 (I checked there too). Anyone knows what's going on here? help???!! Richard??
