Rick,
I am sure you noticed it looking at your profile here.
In the UBB buddies content I see two users that are missing a avatar. Not even the "nopicture.gif"
The two buddies are mmg and drew strickland.
Is that a bug or is there something missing in their respective profiles?

Likely they're using an external avitar and it no longer exists...

I would think if that was the case we would see the infamous red x.
Is that not true?

Not nessessarily; I think Firefox tries to hide the "red x"... Look at Drew's URL to his photo:
https://www.ubbcentral.com/version7/files/14.jpg

It's not even in the current directory the UBB is installed in tongue...

Okay it does look like FF tries to hide the invalid link.
But I also notice in visitor comments as well as UBB buddies images are missing.
Maybe this should revert to the default nopicture in both cases.
For another example in Ricks profile I posted a visitor comment. I don't have a custom avatar but the nopicture gif does not appear just my name.

Fixed the no avatar issue on comments. Can't really fix the one where the avatar is missing however. We could but it would be a bit slower loading, since we'd have to do a check to see if it exists for every avatar being displayed.

this could be added to the content rebuilder, imo

then the fix could be applied there as a one shot wink
