hi,
i was wondering two things in relation to avatars in the forum module:

1.) is it possible to set a default avatar for people that don’t set one on their own?
2.) would it then be possible to have that avatar be chosen at random from a set of avatars?

1.

Welcome <a href="http://{path=member/profile}" title="Your Account">{screen_name}</a>!
     {exp:member:custom_profile_data}
        {if avatar}
            {avatar_url}
        {if:else}
          <a href="http://{path=member/edit_avatar}">http://www.site.com/themes/site_themes/default/no_avatar.gif</a>
        {/if}
    {/exp:member:custom_profile_data}

2. perhaps with some php

thank you very much.

and just to be more clear about the second part: i’m not looking for those avatars to change randomly on page reload. more specifically, when the user registers i’m looking for 1 avatar to be set randomly from the directory i have them in.

i’m guessing thats going to go deeper than theme_threads.php & theme_member.php. probably into some of the core files. but thats alright.

thanks again.
