Load avatars using alternative domain

[CTXMedia]

Is there any way to hard-code the domain portion of the Avatar gets?

For example, my main domain is: www.cyclechat.net - and I have images for the styles loaded via: www.cyclechat.co.uk

However, avatars images are not included in this and so come from the primary domain.

I'd like to utilise asynchronous downloads and request the avatars via the .co.uk domain to speed up page loading.

Any idea how I'd go about this in XF?

Thanks,
Shaun

Aren't avatars stored in the /data/ directory? If you use $config['externalDataUrl'] as http://www.cyclechat.co.uk/data (and copy the data across) you should be able to utilise this.

Thanks James - I hadn't realised you could specify a data URL, and after reading your post found this:

Which also has a config item for specifying the JS path too ... bonus

Thanks for the pointer,
Shaun

Yes, sorry, should have clarified that.
