I don't know whether I can make a custom avatar skin for this board.
Dropping the increasing pool system and making all avatars available at once is possible. Just agree about it.

i really hope you get that working. that is by far the coolest avatar feature to have. but once it's working you should make it so that one needs 1000 posts or more to choose a custom avatar just so they don't become an epidemic

I agree that custom avatars are nice addition to a site. I had a quick gander over at the vBulletin modification forums to see if anything over there would help. It seems that someone did attempt a off-board custom avatar hack for v3, but it apparently ran into problems. There doesn't seem, despite a fair bit of interest, to be a follow up attempt.

I suppose it's possible that someone will release a hack to do the trick, Jelsoft will add the functionality in a new version (plenty of other boards already have it), or the host will allow uploads. So all is not lost.
