(sorry to clog this thread up, but it may help others anyway).

I found out that adding a new picture to a profile now creates the larger one.




But it doesnt display on the profile.



currently i have restored engine/lib/views to default, put team webgalli's code in the start.php of my theme and i have also changed the css in icon.php which ive added to my theme.

/* ***************************************
    AVATAR ICONS
*************************************** */
.elgg-avatar {
    position: relative;
    display: inline-block;
}
.elgg-avatar > a > img {
    display: block;

}

.elgg-avatar-tiny{
    width: 100px;
    height: 100px;
    
}

.elgg-avatar-tiny > a > img {
    width: 100px;
    height: 100px;
    
    /* remove the border-radius if you don't want rounded avatars in supported browsers */
    -webkit-border-radius: 3px;
    -moz-border-radius: 3px;
    border-radius: 3px;
    
    -moz-background-clip:  border;

Any help?

Use elgg_save_config() for the elgg_set_config to persist.

http://reference.elgg.org/configuration_8php.html#a52035ce2a3c1aef94c10c60e3d0a34c0

i made a plugin to do this, check my profile

You can do it by

1. Using the elgg Web services plugin skelton available here @ http://community.elgg.org/pg/plugins/project/829356/developer/juho.jaakkola/elgg-api-skeleton or https://github.com/Tachyon/Elgg-Web-Services
2. Sharing the elgg session with your application. Just google for it and you will get some hints.
3. Loading the Elgg engine to your application and use the Elgg API calls to login/logout the user depending on their status in your application.

If your application is a well written piece of code, it will not be that hard to do it. If you are having only limited contents in the current platform, try to import them to Elgg.

Thank you very much Team Webgalli!

I will check that out:)
