I've been having a little trouble with my host today and when I made my last post, my website was down. Since my avatar is served from that server... it should have been blank or broken right?

Wrong.

boRg has added (and it may have been there all along I don't know), a sweet little addition to the img tag.

" onError=""this.src='avatars/blank_avatar.jpg'; "

Now I'm really liking this for a number of reasons, but I've been trying to figure out a way to easily substitute a missing newspaper cover image when it's not available... problem solved.

THANKS BRUCE!!!
