Now that I'm on this look-and-feel trip...

Not sure why I never did before: I've just turned on phpBB's 'Avatar' feature. This means everyone can now upload a small image to sit below their name beside every post. It doesn't have to be a photo, it can be anything you like. Maximum is 80x80 pixels and 10kB.

I haven't turned on the 'gallery' for people to pick from ready-made images. But if someone has a really nice collection of crazy images that would somehow apply to this community, I might.

I'll upload as soon as I think or something suitable...

Not sure, if itīs a good idea to be able to use Avatars.
They will bring up the amount of traffic of the website, and if you want to read this forum online with the xda, you have to turn off pictures or have to download much more...

The special mobile style I made (which is automatically selected for XDAs (or more precise: when a USER_AGENT string contains '240x320') does not display the avatars.
