Avatar How to?

[Miku]

Hi, could some one help me with this?

 

I need a way so when members register and go into there member.php (User CP) page they can add an avatar via URL only. If they add this avatar then they will see there image on the left side off the screen. How can I do this?

 

I need the full script as I am a full noob.....

-Thanks

We won't give you the full script. You need to make an attempt or you'll never learn.

 

 

How much of your system is done sofar? And how is your database structured?

You won't get the full script here, defeats the purpose of the board.

 

I'll you need do is, when your user registers, store the address of there avitar allong with there username, then, you simply need to display it back from the database.

Im not gonna give you the full script... but I can give you an idea of what you want to accomplish

 

basically you want to store the URL in your database, as thorpe said, and when you want to display it, get the url via a mysql query, like:

$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM tablename WHERE criteria='$credientials");//criteria and credentials are basically what you use to validate that its the specific user when they login. Using something like their session username is a good thing to use here
$r = mysql_fetch_assoc($query);
$url = $r['avatar'];

echo "<img src='$url' />";

 

hope that helps
