Blank Avatar Per Skin

 

This modification will override the default IPB behaviour of using a single "blank avatar" image in the style_avatars folder to instead use one out of your currently selected skin's folder. The advantage to this hook is that you don't need to use dodgy PHP code in your templates.

 

To use, simply enable on your forum and add a file named "noavatar.png" to your skin folders. IPB will then use your new "noavatar.png" image in place of its own.

 

If you would rather use a .gif or .jpg image, you can override the file name by adding a new setting called "hookBlankAvatarImageName". This will override for all skins so make sure the file exists for all of them.
