What does this mod do?

This mod allows you to change the username display on the postbit to an image. If a URL is added to the profile field it will display the image, if it is left blank the normal text username is displayed.

What doesn't this mod do?

Nothing else. I'm hoping that some of the more experienced can help turn this into a full modification with usergroup controls, size limit controls, browse local files and upload controls, etc.

This runs off of the User Profile Fields in vb, I would suggest you make it not user editable, as I'm not sure if there are any security risks with allowing your members to insert a URL to an image.

Install instructions are in the zip.

Updates
.02 - Missing </a> added. This made the rank part of the profile link.
.03 - Added instructions for applying the username image to user's profile and who's online.
 
It's too bad you couldn't do something like phpbb's "Create a smilie" mod. Where it would create an image from a name the user typed in.
 
Cool idea...

Maybe could try auto text over image generation...

Like put the user name automatically over a background image
