Hi all!

I mirror two different blogs and they show up on the frontpage in a weblogposlist (like what's new) with an avatar for the author.  The result is a lot of grey avatars on the frontpage. How can I turn the authoer of the blogsposts from anonymous to a chosen user?

Is it possible?

 Well, I just found this technique. Haven't tried it yet.

No, that will not work sadly enough. It will only show a different name in the search list. We'd need something like a way of changing the writer of a blog to always be one person/account and not anonymous. I've no idea of how to do this. I've partly solved this by separating the internat and external (mirrored) blogs. Perhaps I'll take the avatar away from the external. Haven't decided yet.
