Unmaintained avatar.php 1.1.2a

No permission to download
This script is useful when you have any HTML web page needing to show a user's avatar, and the user's username or userid is available to you. An HTML img tag will be the typical usage:

Code:
<img src="avatar.php?userid=3" />

Installation:
- upload this script to your forum root. :coffee:

You have 3 GET parameters you can set:

userid - the userid number of the user.
username - the username of the user. Can be used instead of userid.
size - can be s, m, or l. The default is m if not specified.

Example usage:

Code:
<img src="avatar.php?userid=3" />
<img src="avatar.php?userid=3&size=s" />
<img src="avatar.php?username=admin" />
<img src="avatar.php?username=admin&size=l" />

If the user is not found then it will output the default "no gender" avatar:

avatar_m.webp


This script supports all three types of avatars... default, custom, and gravatars.

Note that calling avatars like this doesn't have the usual cache-buster timestamp in the URL. So a hard refresh might be necessary to see a user's new avatar after they have changed it.

Thanks for this. Makes getting avatars for outside of xenforo applications and scripts a breeze. Helped me complete a project I was working on and saved a lot of time.
much needed :)
I use this for my staff page outside of my forum and it works perfectly. It also auto updates every time the Avatar is changed which is very nice. Recommended if you want Avatars on a site page unassociated (is that a word?) with the actual forum.
So simple, great stuff. Thank you Jake.
Excellent
You are, quite simply, the most amazing person on the planet... I spent all day beating my head against the wall trying to learn this new system. THANK YOU.
