Did you set to show icons for you in your user cp. I forgot to include these queries in the instructions.

ALTER TABLE user CHANGE options options smallint(6) NOT NULL default '31';

UPDATE user SET options=options+16;

I have 2.2.7 but no default installation of it anymore. I will look at a default 2.2.9.

Edit: I see the code is:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Change that to

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

ahhh those queries made the difference. I still didn't see the index.php code but it's good it works, now i gotta find some pics, can u just give me the ones ur using? i need smaller pics.

Also in announcement.php step 2.3 should be:

2.3. Below that add:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
if ($post[iconavatarid]!=0) {
$iconavatarurl=$post[iconavatarpath];
} else {
if ($post[hascustomiconavatar] and $iconavatarenabled) {
$iconavatarurl="iconavatar.php?userid=$post[userid]&dateline=$post[iconavatardateline]";
} else {
$iconavatarurl="";
}
}
if ($iconavatarurl=="") {
$post[iconavatar]="";
} elseif ($bbuserinfo[userid]>0 and !($bbuserinfo[showiconavatars])) {
$post[iconavatar]="";
} else {
eval("\$post[iconavatar] = \"".gettemplate("postbit_iconavatar")."\";");
}
-----------------------------------------------------------------

I assume you had icons set to not display and becauase I forgot the red line it still displayed there. I will update the instructions.

And the icons on my public icon list are some of my smilies which you can find here: at the bottom. You willl need to ask permission though and link to the site like I did and is done on this site. The others you may see are custom icons.

Great idea!

[Vivi Ornitier]

hey u should add an option where ppl can upload their pics or just simply link it from another destination, that would be the best way.

[Dark Jim]

Huh? People can already upload icons if they have enough posts. You may need to enable upload and lower the number of required posts under vBulletin Options.

Hey Dark Jim,

Can you set this to be like........only the admins/supermods/mods choose who can have the little pic thing next to their name or what not.

IE: If the staff decides that "bobberman46" was the member of the week, they can enable him to have the "member of the week icon thing" next to his username. But no other user on the forum can do so?

Dark J: I dont' see the options in my vbulletin options. It's just for avatars, nothign else.

I could probably but I only release hacks that I use myself, sorry.

Odd. Check your database. What is the last row in the table settinggroup? And what is the last row in the table setting?

Looks like one of these nice hacks again

Good job buddy *thumbs up*

Dark J: THe last table is the Upload options choice.

[Dark Jim]

Hmm I don't think so. Run this query:

SELECT * FROM settinggroup LIMIT 0, 40;

and tell me then what the last row is from settinggroup. Is it "Who's online" with settinggroupid "31"?

[Erwin]

Well done, Dark Jim! I've done a similar thing based on the mini-avatars hack, but mine's mainly template-based. Good job!

[Dark Jim]

So noone else had problems installing it?
