3/4/08: Added an "Avatar Power Pack" with 400 more high-quality Avatars, bringing the total available to 545. Never show your visitors the same Avatar twice!!! 2/11/08: Updated to make the admin backend a little more user friendly. Added the ability to assign avatars to 50 users at a time, rather than your whole site, thus reducing CPU server load on sites with thousands of users. Made the report function viewable only by individuals with administrator access level or higher. -------------------------------------------------- In my experience, only about 10-20% of users at a community builder site take time to upload their own avatar. As a result, they remain faceless citizens of what should be a growing, personalized, dynamic online community. AutoAssignAvatar Pro automatically assigns a random avatar to these anonymous individuals. Immediately makes your site friendlier and more personable. Includes 145 sample avatars and thumbnails tastefully selected to complement the design of almost any webpage. The licensed version has these additional features: First, you can upload images to the Community Builder gallery. Users who select a thumbnail from the gallery will be upgraded to the full sized avatar the next time the module runs. They're not just stuck with the thumbnail as their avatar. Second, new users who register will be randomly assigned an avatar, after a period of time determined by the webmaster. My preference is about 3 to 7 days. This gives the user a chance to upload their own image without feeling like you've commandeered their profile page. Once this interval elapses, the module can optionally email the user and let them know that an avatar was assigned for them. A link back to their profile is included in the email, along with instructions for uploading their own avatar, should they desire. Third, the licensed version has detailed report features that tell you how many users have uploaded an avatar, what image types, and what avatar and thumbnail files have gone missing. If you intend to use the Avatar Gallery, this module is practically a must, since it lets you showcase your entire membership, not just the 10-20% that uploaded their own image.
