that code looks good, but I don't like quoting line numbers unless I'm looking at your file .... highly unlikely our files are identical, so there's no point really.
Here is my avatar code from topic.asp (and a few lines above & below to help locate it)
if strShowRank = 1 or strShowRank = 3 then
Response.Write " <font color=""" & strForumFontColor & """ face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """ size=""" & strFooterFontSize & """><small>" & ChkString(getMember_Level(Reply_MemberTitle, Reply_MemberLevel, Reply_MemberPosts),"display") & "</small></font><br />" & vbNewLine
end if
if strShowRank = 2 or strShowRank = 3 then
Response.Write " " & getStar_Level(Reply_MemberLevel, Reply_MemberPosts) & "<br />" & vbNewLine
end if
Response.Write " </p>" & vbNewLine & _
" <p>" & vbNewLine
if Reply_MemberAvatar <> "noavatar.gif" then
response.write" <img src=""" & Reply_MemberAvatar & """ width=""" & intAvatarWidth & """ height=""" & intAvatarHeight & """ border=""" & intAvatarBorder & """><br>"
end if
if strCountry = "1" and trim(Reply_MemberCountry) <> "" then
Response.Write " <font color=""" & strForumFontColor & """ face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """ size=""" & strFooterFontSize & """><small>" & Reply_MemberCountry & "</small></font><br />" & vbNewLine
end if
