I have a bad idea for board index design 
Hopely, you're not laugh ....

I modified, INDEX.TEMPLATE.PHP (in THEMES directory) for FUNNY purpose.. See my attachment (picture)


If user login normally, the forum will show her or his avatar, NOT Bad avatar like above 
See picture below...


And, if the "easy code" just like this (put in the index.template.php file) SMF Beta 5

Code Select Expand

// Otherwise they're a guest - so politely ask them to register or login.
else
{
echo '
                                                        <img src="http://yourforum.com/Themes/monkey.jpg"><br />
', $txt['welcome_guest'], '<br />
', $context['current_time'], '<br />



Or, if you wanna add CODE from Geobytes, that show your visitor CITY Information display dynamically, you can add this code at same file

Code Select Expand

// Show the menu here, according to the menu sub template.
template_menu();

echo '

<script language="Javascript" src="http://gd.geobytes.com/gd?after=-1&variables=GeobytesCountry,GeobytesCity">
</script>
<script language="Javascript">
document.write("Warning! User from "+sGeobytesCity+", "+sGeobytesCountry+", must be above 17 years old");
</script>

</div>';

// The main content should go here.  A table is used because IE 6 just can't handle a div.


PS: Dont laugh on me
Cause I am new on PHP

Hmm, a guest pic isn't a bad idea. Perhaps the SMF logo instead. But I hate multiple use of one smiley...

Sorry... Just my idea, if you didnt like it 
I am so sorry 

[Daniel D.]

I like the idea a lot, just the smilies.

I think its a great idea...a more original approach to the login. And the picture of the monkey is funny..   ( whats this with smilies then..? ..oops.)

I wanted to implement something like that myself, just didnt know how!!??

The picture I wanted to have up is something like

Wow, nice avatar for unknown user.
BTW, i want to make default avata like this to my member forum, if they didnt have or set avatar, yet?

Is anyone here can show me the code?

Well, you can rename that to "blank.gif" and upload it to the avatars folder... That will make it the default if they haven't set an avatar.

I've just set it up to see how it looks...

airport-tkd.com/forum

Here's the code I used

Code Select Expand

$txt['welcome_guest'] = '<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
  <tr>
    <td width="5%" valign="middle" align="center"><img src="http://www.airport-tkd.com/forum/Themes/default/images/guestav.jpg"></td>
    <td width="95%">
      <div align="left">Welcome, <b>' . $txt[28] . '</b>. Please <a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=login">login</a> to post.<br />Or do you need to <a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=register">register</a> an account with us?</a></div>
    </td>
  </tr>
</table>';

Well, you can rename that to "blank.gif" and upload it to the avatars folder... That will make it the default if they haven't set an avatar.

Have you actually verified this, which you keep saying and I'm almost sure is not the case?
