I am uninstalling what i have done to make vbb funtional again, but if someone who has had this problem or knows how to fix it will tell me i will probably install it again.....
I installed the avatar hack exactly as the readme stated, but the second to last file to edit (showthread.php) did not have the requested text to find contained within. i looked through it and it did contain the ,iconpath in a few places so i hoped that it was a more current version and continued to change the templates. now when i attempt to view the page i get the infamous MySQL database error and a horde of emails. the readme helped none in actually installing, just the script editing. so i didnt know where to upload the accompanying scripts or where i could find help. so, i came here. any ideas?
ok, i think i fixed all the problems. the readme was horribly inadequate.....
and i am having trouble figuring out how to add icons. placing them in the directory does not work, is that a problem in itself?
now im having trouble with an upload script i am writing. ill redirect you to the post ---

i discovered in showthread.php the pattern to the new , select statement though i dont understand it, i added a
,user.iconpath as iconpath
on the end instead of a simple ,iconpath as is stated in the readme.
now unfortunately the same error continues in the index.php file.
i fixed that by inserting a new row in the database (iconpath, varchar 200) but its a bit of a quick fix i suspect
Showthread.php has been slightly rewritten in 1.1.5. Look for a line which looks like:
$posts=$DB_site->query("SELECT post.dateline as dateline,post.postid as
