Avatars

I promise to make this easier... but I've just plugged in comment avatars. To use them, first go to register and setup a basic account (I'm not quite ready with advanced accounts).

Then login.

Then go to avatar and select an avatar. You will only be able to do this if you have an account and are logged in.

From there on in, if you're logged in and make comments on this board, your avatar will be displayed.

There is still a lot to do, so don't hassle me about feature requests like uploading your own avatars and viewing profiles and stuff like that.  All of that will come in time.

Oh and for folks who have been here awhile and made comments in the past, if I notice you have an avatar, I'll do what I can (manually) to add it to your existing (prior) posts.

Shouldn't write so hastily... Avatar uploading is working, as well as basic profiles. The down side is that only 'authors' can upload avatars, and I'm not ready to turn on 'author privilege' yet - there's still some PHP code to clean out. And there aren't any profiles to view except mine.

I don't know, think you have enough avatars for people to choose from? Sounds like you're enjoying yourself - who cares if its all geekspeak right now.
