Not sure if this helps you rvt, but I think it will do what was requested.

I'm not sure if the avatar is the right function for this... IMHO a avatar is a small graphic to express 'something' since I'm working on a chat site I really need both... Avatars to be shown next to a forum message and when I want to 'see' somebody I need to go to a profile.


or i'm I wrong here?

Checked in OPN_RC and it worked well. Perhaps you should look at Admin --> Usergroups and check in usergroup "User" wether the rights in module "user image" are both green, this means read and write are activated.

Ok, but you can restrict the filesize in Admin--> Settings-->Graphics

Summary:
User Images should work as far as I tested it
You did a wishticket for a profile image, well done, keep you informed about the status of this idea.

I have played around with it but this is not really what I'm looking for.
First of al I don't like that member can add more then one image to the system and secondary it looks like that a 'normal' user cannot upload a image.
When I'm in admin I can see a upload button but when I'm at 'normal user mode' there is no upload image button.

I expect to have around 4000 member in a year if everything goes well (current we gained 750 members in less then 3 weeks) so I just cannot allow that members can upload more then one image for there profile.

One other major problem for me is that when a user uploads a image then the filename is not changed...

Again with so many users it would be a issue that people end up with the same picture names.

So there are two prblems here:

- As a normal user I cannot upload images
- I need some kind of 'profile' image which I can add in the 'your account' box and this mage needs to be encoded. For example -.
So when a user uploads myself.gif and has a userid of 345. the name will end up in myself-345.gif

Hey All,


I found the user-image module but I'm not sure how that actually works...
What I basicly want is that a user can upload a image to his profile so other people can see it.
Is that currently possible and of so, how??

(BTW: I have user admin images working...)
