guestbook avatars - confused ?   
www.jpgimage.co.uk/full.php?image=30

Selecting one of the four radio buttons will decide what avatar is used 
- and even though it was myself who designed it - i find it little 
confusing .

The confusion being you can pick one of the 40 gallery avatars - but it 
doesnt get used unless you click on the appropriate radio button and 
click on submit .



One (logic?) thing i did learn from doing it this way was a method that 
meant the usual type of ..... if () {} ..... lines of php code to decide 
what avatar gets displayed to the public isnt needed .

The default and the gallery avatar folders remain untouched regardless 
of what avatar is selected/picked .

I used a folder called 'avatars_main' and anytime the the SUBMIT AND 
CHANGE AVATAR form button is clicked - it copys the selected avatar into 
the 'avatars_main' folder .

Thus - no need for any if(){} stuff as the 30 avatar images are just 
pulled straight from the folder - in the normal way .


Or are you still confused.com ? :-)
