Ok i'm really not sure how/if this would work but if you can help out it would be much appreciated.

I have created a custom field for user to fill in their profile which allows them to input their xbox 360 gamertag. What i would like to do is somehow when a user fills this information in it automatically completes a url. So for example i sign up and input my gamertag which is DaveKinetic. This is then taken and entered in to this url…

http://card.mygamercard.net/Ga…..agHere.png if entered then this link is used as the users avatar on the forum instead of selecting upload etc. This way their gamertag will constantly be upto date rather than having an uploaded image.

If a user were to not enter their gamertag then is resorts to using site avatar.

Yeah that was my second option to get users to add the image as an image in the signature.

unfortunately, we cant provide ad nauseum options on every field, especially the custom fields as they are really upredicatable. wink

besides, the custom fields are only visible in the profile itself… the signature is seen on every post.

in a future release we hope to add a lot more functionality to the signature.
