John,

I'm not sure I understand the context of your question (since I don't have the 
skin in question), but here's some partial answers (using different extensions):

1. Extension: SocialProfile has an avatar system build into it along with some 
"friend" functions. (I find the extension to be very dated compared to modern 
social networking sites, but some like it)
2. You could Semantic Mediawiki &/or the Cargo extensions to store a photo 
inside a user profile template as the "avatar" photo. Using Semantic Forms you 
could "upload" the photo directly to the spot on the page you want (my 
understanding is the VisualEditor has this ability starting with 1.27 up). Both 
Semantic Mediawiki &/or the Cargo extension have different methods you can use 
to query this avatar photo.

Anyways hopefully that helps.
