You do that, Ed.
While you're at it, take the opportunity to point out that there is a hack to store custom avatars as files, rather than as database entries.
This apparently decreases server load (fewer database retrievals), decreases bandwidth requirements (images are cached by browsers), and reduces greenhouse gas emissions.

Cheers for the info, I'll pass it on.
We are trying to keep the forums as much 'hack' free as possible as added hacks and mods are what have caused problems in the past...... sometimes months down the line after the hack was added and all seemed fine.
As far as I know, bandwidth is not much of an issue at the moment as BCUK is now running on a new dedicated server so we are not encroaching on anyone else ....... I'm pretty sure we have more than enough bandwidth to spare.

Your just on the other side of the hill to me.
Maybe it's a Pennines thing.
May be a payment/membership thing. I uploaded "V" just t'other day.

Hi Guys,
It's not a payment issue, I need to change a few things is all, I'll add it to the list and get it done as soon as I can. As Ed said, the forums just fresh up after some major work and there's a fair sized list to get through.
Thanks for your patience

think the avatars just haven't been copied over yet
they are looking at this directory:
http://www.bushcraftuk.com/community/images/avatars/
they are still on the .net server though:

We should be able to copy them over soon.
cheers
