    I have seen several of these from different systems out there that I know run Synchronet.

    Is this something all Synchronet systems are suppose to be sending out?

    Ok, I see. The reason I asked this is that I see several systems sending this stuff out but have not seen one in there from my system so I did not know if I needed to do something to have it do this or it abnother update is needed.


    Thanks

    If you have the AVAT-OUT timed event setup and one or or more (active) users on your BBS have an avatar selected, then it should export them to SYNCDATA periodically.

    Is this message referring to the Avatar feature added?

    That's all I can get out of it.

    teh wili should fill you in, check to see if you have avatars.js and avatar_chooser.js in your /exec directory and you are good to go after a couple steps that should be explained in the above link.
