Mhmm.. Just curious, what plugin are you doing?

The one that I just submitted about not bumping up old threads.

To your request, as I said it can be done as a plugin but that would require some time and atm my free time is very limited. But I will tell you another way which is easy and handier.

Here is what you should do.

Go to the phpmyadmin at the cp of your host and then at the db where your forum resides on. Make a backup copy of your mybb_users table and then run the following query at the SQL tab.

PHP Code:[Highlight]

UPDATE mybb_users SET avatar = 'images/avatars/image.gif',  avatartype = 'gallery', avatardimensions = '100|100' WHERE usergroup = '4'; 


Don''t forget to replace the image.gif with the actual name of your avatar image and to upload it at the ''avatars'' folder in the /images/ directory.

This will set a default avatar for all the members in the admin group. To do it for other groups, you can add more of Set avatar..... Where usergroups.... statements separated by commas, or run the query individualy by replacing the usergroup = '4' with the other group id''s that you want to hook them with up a default avatar.

Let me know how it will go.
