For those sites where it is easier to associate an image to a user than a name, the mini avatar next to a tag brings avatars to users wherever the name is mentioned (in posts / conversations).

Features
  • Display avatars next to tags
  • Styling is controlled via style properties
  • 0 queries
Note that this is untested on 1.2-1.3, but should function properly.

Future Features
  • Gravatar Integration
  • Gender defined default avatars

Amazing add-on ! Works right off the bat with XF1.5.
Just one question, I can't find how to remove the @ next to the username when the avatar is shown, like it is in the example picture (the dog avatar) ..
When tagging someone in a profile status comment, the mini avatar doesn't seem to be shown.

That's a very small "issue" though -- this is a fantastic addon.

This is seemingly such a small feature, but it really adds to the experience of tagging.

And, most importantly, members love this!

Highly recommended!!
I will have to agree with Dave as well, this should be an option within the XenForo core to toggle on or off. My community really enjoyed this small refinement of the tagging system because it brings it to a personal level. Folks have emotions attached to images or avatars and simply writing a name doesn't come close to the emotions one might experience when viewing a picture.
Excellent addon! This should definantly be part of the XenForo core. This add-on adds the icing to the cake. A must have, that will really enhance any forum. Thanks a ton Jeremy!
Thanks to Jeremy for coding this - as Dave said it should be a core feature as it seems to capture the spirit of member interaction that XenForo is designed to take advantage of.
Ask and ye shall receive. Good work.. 4 stars.. will give you five when it works with gravatars :D (Gives you something to work toward hah) . Seriously though - excellent addon, makes tagged users look so much more interesting.

That delete button is tempting... I could have supported Gravatar right away, but at the detriment of destroying site performance.
Great resource, should be in core. Finally able to get rid of that @ sign, yet still have people know what the username link is for. Jermy is the best.
