Full image for Advanced profile?

Visitor
Hi All, I am new to drupal and I have been playing around with the advanced profile module and I just have one small question to ask: How do I add a large user submitted image to the profiles page? What I want is when people sign up for an accound they can upload a small image for their comments ect and then I want them to add a larger image to be used for their header. How can I do that? I hope someone can help :) Jimmy

working on it

Using different sized avatar images on the same pages is a pain... i am playing with a few ways of doing this but none are all that successful.

BUT if you use the Lullabot Avatar tutorial then you could use the "Enlarge Photo" trick that i used here http://afterthemouse.com/users/18/tim-jennings to blow the picture up on demand... sorry i am in a rush here but if you do a view source on the page you should get the idea...

gotta run!

Thanks allot mouse77e! I did

Thanks allot mouse77e! I did see that site before, however that it not the kind of thing I am looking for.

What it is, its a away of having on large image that is only visible on the profiles page so users and upload their own big picture and then have another image purely as an avatar so have two different user uploaded images one header image (400x250 px) and a 80x80 px avatar.

I will have a play around to see if I can get this to work but if you or someone else can help then that would be superb!

Thanks again.

Separate image

If you want a separate image, here's a rough, untested plan:

1) Install imagefield
2) Add an imagefield field to your profile node type
3) Put this field in a group on its own
4) Add the group to the profile panel where you want the picture

Thanks

Thanks Michelle for the help! I will give that ago (not sure if I can get it working as I am new to drupal)

Also not sure if there is a bug in your forum, if you look at my total number of posts and when I joined your forum the number of posts and start date is wrong:

You're anon

That's because you're not logged in so all anon posts get lumped together. I'll be putting something in to advforum to fix anon users but haven't gotten to it, yet.
