Way to call member profile image with php?

Hi… as the title suggests, I’m trying to use each member’s profile image in the comments_template.php.

So far, I have this… for some reason, the file_exists wasn’t working, and I’m currently at this ghetto solution:

$user_info = get_userdata($comment->user_id);

$em = $comment->user_id + 4;

if($comment->user_id<50000000) {

echo ‘<img class=”emem_profile_image” src=”http://www.mmocheatsplus.com/wp-content/uploads/emember/&#8217; . $em . ‘.jpeg” width=64 height=64 />’;

}

else {

echo ‘<img class=”emem_profile_image” src=”http://www.mmocheatsplus.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-eMember/images/default_image.gif&#8221; width=64 height=64 />’;

}

But as you could have guessed, the else is never firing because everyones user id is less then that huge number… I just had to put some sort of conditional to keep this same idea of code, even though I know it’s not necessary.

Like I said above, for some reason the file_exists isn’t checking properly, and I couldn’t find a solution on the internet. I must have tried this 5+ times, all making sure there weren’t any typos. I even did absolute paths, and it wasn’t finding a file that was for sure there.

The original code I got from the emember_misc_functions.php file where it uses code to check for existance of the actual emember user id and if it has a .gif, .jpg, etc, then use that url for the image to display in the profile.

Like I said, mine is a makeshift version of that, and I even used a simple +4 addition to the commenters WordPress user ID, since through testing, my user IDs and WP ids are off by 4.

Anyways… is there a simple way to properly call the profile image, and if the user hasn’t uploaded one, display the default?

Thanks.

Nevermind… I found a solution that uses the old code and all is well in the world again.
