If your talking to me I will be happy to share, I will go get it for you.

Here is one version,

Code Select Expand


global $memberContext;
$user_id = $context['common_stats']['latest_member']['id'];
loadMemberData(array($context['common_stats']['latest_member']['id']));
loadMemberContext($user_id);
if (!empty($memberContext[$user_id]['avatar']['image']))
echo '<div align="center">'.$memberContext[$user_id]['avatar']['image'].'<BR>'.$context['common_stats']['latest_member']['link'].'</div>';
else
echo '<div align="center">( No Avatar Yet )<BR><BR>'.$context['common_stats']['latest_member']['link'].'</div>';


The one I have calls for a image that I created if they do not choose one. I can post that as well if you like.

This code will put an image of your choice in the block when the newest member does not select an avatar:

Code Select Expand


global $memberContext;
$user_id = $context['common_stats']['latest_member']['id'];
loadMemberData(array($context['common_stats']['latest_member']['id']));
loadMemberContext($user_id);
if (!empty($memberContext[$user_id]['avatar']['image']))
echo '<div align="center">'.$memberContext[$user_id]['avatar']['image'].'<BR>'.$context['common_stats']['latest_member']['link'].'</div>';
else
echo '<div align="center"><img src="path to your image"></img><BR><BR>'.$context['common_stats']['latest_member']['link'].'</div>';


Make sure to replace <img src="path to your image"> with the path to your image you are going to use.

Works good for me.
However what i was thinking would be nice if the no avatar image could be clickable wich when clicked take the user to the profile screen to change his avatar

[rebelrose]

The link that says the user name should do that.

I know that, but i was just wondering if it could be done so the image is a link to

I think it could, just a matter of getting the code right, I am no coder, but I can try to give it a go later and see what happens, Unless one of the coders come along first and give you the answer.

Thanks, i am no coder either, that is why i asked here . In return i will create a pack of avatars soon
