    Excellent plugin!

    I inserted the avatars right after the title and before post using the following CSS mod.

    .postavatar{
    float: left;
    margin: 0px 15px 5px 0px;
    }

    Thanks, and Happy Holidays!

    I don’t seem to get working after installing and activitating it.
    I uploaded the images in the right path (which is: /wp-content/upload/icons). When I selected the images in my Admin CP and save the post, the image doesn’t show, only the text.

    Oh and can you elaborate this more:
    Add the following within The Loop:

    I don’t get what you mean by adding the code to the “loop”

    Thanks.

    Jan, does the path to your images folder have a trailing slash e.g. /wp-content/upload/icons/?

    Please check that.

    This is the loop The template tag should go there so that it will appear on your blog page

    Hi,

    I’m getting an error after I activate the plugin and go to the write post page:

    Warning: opendir(/home/.ella/liquidengineer/theliquidengineer.org/blog/wp-content/avatars//tmp) [function.opendir]: failed to open dir: Permission denied in /home/.ella/liquidengineer/theliquidengineer.org/blog/wp-content/plugins/post-avatar/gkl-postavatar.php on line 49

    I’m not sure why it’s tacking the /tmp on the end.

    Also, is there a way to set a default avatar so if I can modify my template and have all posts without an explicitly set avatar default to something?
