Hi all.
VbTeam, I want to congratulate you on a very good job you have done with the new version. My upgrade from 2.7 went smooth without any major problem, even though my site is pretty busy and loaded with images/text.
The only major problem I have after the upgrade is custom avatars being displayed as broken images after upgrade. I was running version vb 2.7 before with "avatars as files" hack that stored all custom avatars into a file directory instead of the database.
I loaded the old custom avatar files to the new "customavatars" directory in vb3 but they do not show up. I investigated the problem and I found out that the avatarpath is different in the new version (last digits).
Has anybody run into the same problem?
What is the solution to the problem, other than asking my users to reupload their custom avatars?
I have contacted vb support for this problem but haven't heard from them yet.
Here are the links to the old and new forum:
