 * Hi All,
    I have been developing a plugin for a bit now but have stumbled across
   issues with avatars. I started developing the plugin in place in index.php and
   used get_avatar($userID,”40″) just fine, however when I then turned all this 
   code into a plugin and place it inside my plugin directory etc, the get_avatar(
   $userID,”40″) now doesn’t return anything. I’m guessing that it needs some sort
   of global statement of some sort given that it’s moved into a function inside
   an directory that is not the base dir. Any help would be greatly appreciated,
   Cheers, Sephers.
