I've made another "Who's New" block. It displays all new members in an ordered list starting with the newest member.

function phpblock_whosnew() {
	global $_CONF,$_TABLES,$_DB_table_prefix;
	$retval='<p><center><i>Newest first</i></center></p>';
	// Set the number of new members to show
	$numToShow = 7; 
	$result = DB_query("SELECT uid,username,photo FROM `".$_DB_table_prefix."users` ORDER BY regdate DESC limit $numToShow"); 
	$nrows = DB_numRows($result); 
	for ($i = 1; $i <= $nrows; $i++) {
 	$A = DB_fetchArray($result);

	if (!empty($A['photo']) && $_CONF['allow_user_photo'] == 1) {
 		$retval .= '<ol compact start='.$i.'><li><a href="' . $_CONF['site_url'] . '/users.php?mode=profile&uid=' . $A['uid'] . '">' .$A['username']
 		.'</a> <a href="' . $_CONF['site_url'] . '/users.php?mode=profile&uid=' . $A['uid'] . '"><img src="' . $_CONF['layout_url']
 		. '/images/smallcamera.gif" border="0"></a></li></ol>';
		}
	elseif (empty($A['photo']) || $_CONF['allow_uer_photo'] == 0) {
		$retval .= '<ol compact start='.$i.'><li><a href="' . $_CONF['site_url'] . '/users.php?mode=profile&uid=' . $A['uid'] . '">' .$A['username'] .'</a></li></ol>';
		}
	}
 	return $retval; 
}

Just wanted to remind everyone that you can use the 
 ... |/code] pseudo-tags when posting sections of code. It also makes your moderator's life a bit easier ;-)

bye, Dirk

Nice work.

Looks like a small typo in : 

elseif (empty($A['photo']) || $_CONF['allow_uer_photo'] == 0) {
Should be 'allow_user_photo'... no?

Yes that should be allow_user_photo. Sorry about that. Guess I should have double-checked it all.---Penguin

I would like to know where you add that code?

You would add it to you lib-custom.php file. The add a new block, make sure block type is set to PHP block, then call it in the PHP block Option section by putting phpblock_whosnew there. then enable it and put it on the left or right.
there is one thing I do not like though. It has a break between each line of new user. I can't find the 
<br> or <p>
codes.

lib-custom.php is in your geeklog/system directory. you add the code between the } and ?> at the end of it.

I have found out why it have a space between each new user. Not trying to step on any feet here, but this is what I ended up doing (the whole code with my deletions)
function phpblock_whosnew() {
	global $_CONF,$_TABLES,$_DB_table_prefix;
	$retval='';
	// Set the number of new members to show
	$numToShow = 7; 
	$result = DB_query("SELECT uid,username,photo FROM `".$_DB_table_prefix."users` ORDER BY regdate DESC limit $numToShow"); 
	$nrows = DB_numRows($result); 
	for ($i = 1; $i <= $nrows; $i++) {
 	$A = DB_fetchArray($result);

	if (!empty($A['photo']) && $_CONF['allow_user_photo'] == 0) {
 		$retval .= '<'.$i.'><a href="' . $_CONF['site_url'] . '/users.php?mode=profile&uid=' . $A['uid'] . '">' .$A['username']
 		.'</a> <a href="' . $_CONF['site_url'] . '/users.php?mode=profile&uid=' . $A['uid'] . '"><img src="' . $_CONF['layout_url']
 		. '/images/smallcamera.gif" border="0"></a><br>';
		}
	elseif (empty($A['photo']) || $_CONF['allow_uer_photo'] == 0) {
		$retval .= '<'.$i.'><a href="' . $_CONF['site_url'] . '/users.php?mode=profile&uid=' . $A['uid'] . '">' .$A['username'] .'</a><br>';
		}
	}
 	return $retval; 
}
