I have a weird problem I think.

I installed a new copy of WP 3.0.1 BP 1.2.5.2 and used WP Media uploader to upload an image to path
http:// mysite.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/user-150.jpg

I go to wp-config.php and enter
define(‘BP_AVATAR_DEFAULT’, ‘http:// mysite.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/user-150.jpg’);

Just above the line…

/* That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */

Then I signup a new user but it only still show the famous bp default avatars. This happens everytime I signup a new user but my aim is to automatically assign my own custom avatars for new signups thereby bypassing bp avatars.

Any help will be very much appreciated.

btw it seems like someone is spamming that url and why I spaced // mysite.com but my actual path is correct.

Thanks
Dave

Go to bp-core/images/ and overwrite mystery-man.jpg (128px x 128px) and mystery-man-50.jpg (50px x 50px) with your custom default avatar. Then go to mysite.com//wp-admin/admin.php?page=bp-general-settings and set the default avatar to the image you just uploaded, which will still be labeled Mystery Man.

That should do the trick.
