Automatic Forum Avatars?

[AssaultCommand]

I was just thinking... what if there was an easy way to set you in-game skin as your avatar on a forum...
I google'd it and found http://minotar.net/avatar/YOURNAMEHERE/100.png

I don't know if there's any way to implement this into the Avatar Settings page, but if there is, it'd be nice if you could
make it so that you only have to fill in the username into a box and click 'load avatar' or something.

If it is possible and it can be done with html, I'd like to have a try at it.

Huh?
I was talking about the actual forum avatars...

Vbulletin cache's your avatars, so you cant have it link to a dynamic image resource.

I figured so far, but I still wanted to try and make a manual update possible by just re-entering the same link/username.

Anyways, this is what I had before I gave up:

<div class="blockrow">
<label for="skinavatar">Option 3 - Enter your in-game name behind the url below and place "<b>/80.png</b>" at the end:</label>
<div><input type="text" class="primary textbox" name="skinavatar" value="http://minotar.net/avatar/" id="skinavatar" onchange="check_yes('avatar_yes')" dir="ltr" tabindex="1" /></div>
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="2097152" />
<p class="description">Note: This option is <s>still being worked on</s> abandoned.</p>
</div>

I ripped the basic html layout from the site to make it compatible, then tried changing/adding a few syntaxes but it failed.
I tried unleashing a few javascripts I found on it, but none of them turned out to do what I needed them to.
I suck at coding but I can do a reasonable (basic) bit of html and css, never even attempted javascript yet.

All I learned from attempting this is that I have much to learn

Anyway, I better get working on a new skin soon since this one isn't too pretty...
