Hey,
If you visit: http://ve-designs.net/ve45/
I have the login working, so you can login to your account and you will be directed to the forums.
However, how would I go about it so that when you are logged in you see your avatar in the box on that page, and you no longer see the login forms but instead links to access your user cp etc,
any ideas?
Thanks again,
-Van

I have been playing the flute for 6 years now and I love it, and I am playing the pipe organ as well. I also like to teach other people the in and outs of software such as the CS3 suite from Adobe.

If you use IPBSDK it will be a simple thing, since you can find in the examples folder of IPBSDK a little script tidbit that will display the avatar of the logged in user.
If you are not using IPBSDK though, I would reccomend you to use it

If you do not want to use IPBSDK for such a small matter, or you simply can't due to the fact you are using another forum software, you can easily download the package, read the get_infoadv() and get_photo() functions, and you can draft a similar function for your software, provided you know what the database tables are called, and how they are called. Thus, you can form your own simple query and grab the user's avatar yourself. 
Otherwise just use the basics of IPBSDK, as it is a very nice package.

From the looks of it, he doesn't know enough PHP to draft his own functions. I don't mean this offensively, just an observation. My apologies if I'm wrong.
However, if you're not very fond of PHP, I suggest you just get someone to do it for you. That or get someone to explain it well enough for you to do it yourself with IPBSDK.
Good luck
By the way, here is the link for IPBSDK..
http://ipbsdk.sourceforge.net/

something along the lines of a basic mysql query,
select from avatar from yourdb where user = $session
Correct me if im wrong, I haven't a whole lot of experience with ipb.
