The premise of this mod is simple; it replaces the avatar of a banned user with a picture you want to replace it with, maybe a banned image or something that humiliates the member.
This allows you to put 'Banned' avatars to decent use (those that say banned on them in big, bold letters).
How to use:
First, find in Postbit/Legacy:
Replace with:
Then, in Memberinfo template, find:
And replace with:
Screenshots and Banned Image I used below (or use a banned image from one of the many avatar packs that has them even though they aren't usable by default):
Common Questions
1. How do I change the image URL for the banned avatar?
You replace images/avatars/banned.PNG with whatever you want to replace it with.
2. What's with the basic default image?
I needed a default, had short time and my board has a distinct gaming theme, therefore the default is of a Glum Reaper from Super Mario RPG.
3. It don't work!
Make sure banned users can use/display avatars. Then the mod should work.
