don't know if this is the exact edits that LDM has on here, but these is what i have! Remember that this edits are for a clean file with no mods, if you have any mods around the same area you will have to work around them!
first:
Open index.php
Find:

Code: Select all

'NEWEST_USER'   => sprintf($user->lang['NEWEST_USER'], get_username_string('full', $config['newest_user_id'], $config['newest_username'], $config['newest_user_colour'])),
Add after, on a new line:

Code: Select all

'USER_AVATAR'                    => get_user_avatar($user->data['user_avatar'], $user->data['user_avatar_type'], $user->data['user_avatar_width'], $user->data['user_avatar_height']),

Open styles/prosilver/template/index_body.html
Find:

Code: Select all

<!-- IF S_DISPLAY_ONLINE_LIST -->
   <!-- IF U_VIEWONLINE --><h3><a href="{U_VIEWONLINE}">{L_WHO_IS_ONLINE}</a></h3><!-- ELSE --><h3>{L_WHO_IS_ONLINE}</h3><!-- ENDIF -->
   <p>{TOTAL_USERS_ONLINE} ({L_ONLINE_EXPLAIN})<br />{RECORD_USERS}<br /> <br />{LOGGED_IN_USER_LIST}
   <!-- IF LEGEND --><br /><em>{L_LEGEND}: {LEGEND}</em><!-- ENDIF --></p>
<!-- ENDIF -->
Replace with:

Code: Select all

<!-- IF S_DISPLAY_ONLINE_LIST -->
   <!-- IF U_VIEWONLINE --><h3><a href="{U_VIEWONLINE}">{L_WHO_IS_ONLINE}</a></h3><!-- ELSE --><h3>{L_WHO_IS_ONLINE}</h3><!-- ENDIF -->
<table><tr><!-- IF S_USER_LOGGED_IN and USER_AVATAR --><td valign="top" style="padding-right:6px;">{USER_AVATAR}</td><!-- ENDIF --><td>
<p>{TOTAL_USERS_ONLINE} ({L_ONLINE_EXPLAIN})<br />{RECORD_USERS}<br /> <br />{LOGGED_IN_USER_LIST}
    <!-- IF LEGEND --><br /><em>{L_LEGEND}: {LEGEND}</em><!-- ENDIF --></p>
   </td></tr></table>
<!-- ENDIF -->

yeah, i mean any mods that involved doing edits to the index_body.html!
and yes, to the style you have in use, if you are not using prosilver just look for those edits and it should work!

Hi, i have a different skin installed as of the last few days, called N.Design, there is also N.Design 2, which allows me to have the mod i was on about here all that time ago, however the first N.Design is the skin im using and it refuses to let me have the mod, both are based on Subsilver but only the one that i dont use will let me have the avavtar showing on the main index.. I dont need to be messing around with my modified skin again as it took me 3 nights to get it how it is... is there any help anyone here can give me on this?? ?
I have a test board, but if i install both N.Design themes it confuses the board.. and imagesets are sometimes read off opposite folders... Which again is strange.. the N.Design 2 is templated differently, and i prefer to stick 'with the original one if i can after all the work i did on it.
Please help.. again..:)
