What features would you like to see in future versions of Joomla?

← Joomla Idea Pool

User Profile image/avatar

Allow site users to upload an image file to be associated with their profile. The image could then be displayed along with any site posts and/or comments.

This is a sorely missing feature for Joomla which I hope to see added in a near term release (version 1.7 or 1.8).

        I would love to see User profile image/avatar for the new Joomla 3.0

        Deno028. Thanks for your tutorial link. Is there any demo site that is using this so we can see it in action? It would be great if this was in Joomla by default.

        I was expecting it to be present as well. Since it isn't, I'm writing one right now. I currently have the basic function in place and working - users upload images which are resized to an administrator specified dimension. I would say my progress is 70%. I'm attempting to use only Joomla native and Mootools native libraries so the plugin is lightweight.

        Before I submit it to the JED, I'm going to implement several other features, such as:

        require administrator approval (option)
        apply effects to the image (option)
        store original image (option)
        reprocess stored image (original or post-processed)
        crop (option)

        Any other ideas before I finish?
