    Showing Logo Instead of Avatar on Author Page, How To Include Default Image?

    Hi,

    I've swapped the Avatar image on the author.php template with a logo display functionality.

    On the theme-profile.php page located in the includes folder I have added this snippet above the Twitter and Facebook form fields:

    Code:
    <tr>
<th><label for="twitter"><?php _e('Logo:','appthemes')?></label></th>

<td>
<input type="text" name="logo_id" id="logo_id" value="<?php echo esc_attr(get_the_author_meta('logo_id', $user->ID)); ?>" class="regular-text" size="35" /><br />
<span class="description"><?php _e('Enter your logo image URL - Include the http:// part in front of the url','appthemes')?></span>
</td>
</tr>
    and I have added the logo_id value in this code collection near the top of tpl_profile.php
    Code:
            update_usermeta($user_ID, 'logo_id', $_POST['logo_id']);
        update_usermeta($user_ID, 'twitter_id', $_POST['twitter_id']);
        update_usermeta($user_ID, 'facebook_id', $_POST['facebook_id']);
        update_usermeta($user_ID, 'paypal_email', $_POST['paypal_email']);
    And on author.php I have this line of code:

    Code:
    <div id="user-logo"><img src="<?php echo $curauth->logo_id; ?>" alt="" /></div>
    The only problem is, if there isn't a logo uploaded yet, it shows a broken image symbol for other browsers then FireFox.

    So I'm looking for a way to include a default image, that will be swapped out once there is a logo image url submitted via the Edit Profile settings.

    I would really appreciate it if someone could advise how to tackle this functionality with some code examples.

    Thanks!
