Disclaimer and other notes:
Before adding this MOD to your forum, you should back up all files and databases related to this MOD.

This MOD was designed for Avatar of poster on Index and Viewforum 1.3.0 / Board3 2.0.1
and may not function as stated on other Avatar of poster on Index and Viewforum / Board3 versions.

Instructions:
Upload the package with AutoMOD or read the install.xml

Preview:

Is there a way to adjust how large the avatar is displayed? It seems a little big for my forum theme.

My mod inherits the settings from "Avatar of Poster on Index and Viewforum". You have to edit the setting "Maximum dimension for the displaying of the avatar" to change the dimision of the avatars (FYI, Affects only the Avatars on the Index, Viewforum, Forumlist block, Global announcements block and the news block)


Example: (20px)


ALSO:

A new Version is out:
Changelog:

• Display the Avatar on the "Global announcement block
