| First let me say I'm sorry if this is in the wrong forum and yes I tried a search before posting this. I'm looking for a basic avatar mod but I have a couple of needs for it and I thought they were basic. I just want to have the ability for a user to upload an image for use, only they would see it and be able to use it. Heck they don't even have to be able to upload it they could just point to the location on the net. I also want to be able to delete any avatar I deem bad. I don't need the gallery and such that usually come with an avatar mod. I tried snitzbitz but couldn't find anything that suited my needs. I really wanted to implement the Zuel mod but it is much more then I need and it looks to not be to a finished stage yet.< |

| Unless I'm missing something that mod doesn't allow a user to upload/link to their own image. I think that's the one I installed on my test forum and it was more for having a huge list of avatars for users to select from. Not what I'm after. I just want a real basic one where they can either link to an image or upload and only they can use it. I do want to be able to delete one if I see fit though. So is there something like that out there?< |

look for "My Avatar Addon for Avatar Mod 3.4" on that page
there is a function to do exactly what you want (i guess  )
"# User Submitt Avatar - modified pop_add_avatar.asp file, to let user submit his own Avatar link url."< |

| After reading the review (2 stars) I think I'll pass on that one. Anything else out there?< |

Alas, no. Zuel's the only one that's attempted user avatar uploads. True, it's not finished yet, but if you get the latest version (from the thread here, not on Snitzbitz yet I don't think), it (mostly) works.
He's been distracted with other things but I bet a little encouragement will bring him back to add the final touches to it.
PS I dunno for sure, but 'submit his own Avatar link url.' is not at all the same as users being able to upload avatars.

I have made my own avator(one which allows for direct linking of images)
I have no tutorial yet for this if anyone wants it but you can check it out here:
http://mynameissteve.com/forum
It does not require any DB changes and very minimal code changes
15-20 lines total! using the latest forum.... 3.4.05
So let me know if you like it/want to know the code.< |

Jiffy,
what do you expect for nothing ???. I am using the add avatar add on and it's fine on my forum, just because the review only has two stars, don't make it pants.
Try it, you could always back it out.< |

I'm working on it. No ETA at the moment.< |

Oh man that might be perfect. I tried registering to see what it's like in the profile but I haven't gotten the email yet. Yes that would be great if you could share the code.< |

Thats odd....
What I can do which would be the easiest (if you have not changed any code on the "topic.asp" page would be to just e-mail you my page.
p.s let me know if you ever got the registration e-mail< |

Oh yea just to let you know I did try to reply to your e-mail you sent me and I got this awesome message:
The IP Address of the sender (64.233.182.189) was found in a DNS blacklist database and was therefore refused. < |

Oh btw - the Avatar mod on Snitzbitz does allow linked avatars. About 1 of my users (actually a co-admin) was smart enough to figure that out before I gave up and tried Zuel's upload mod.
I suppose it depends on how net-savvy your users are and how much work you're willing to do for them.

| Ok steve I added the code but how does the person link to the image? I thought maybe it pulled it from the "picture url" in their profile but that's not it.< |
