Hi Del, I think there's some conflict in what you say you're trying to do. You say you're trying to share the last 25 statuses of your Twitter feed, which makes me think that you want to share the Tweets that you've authored -- and you're using the statuses/user_timeline method which is right for that scenario (though it's better form to use the URL format statuses/user_timeline.json?id=UserId )
But then you say that you want to display each user's profile image -- but that the image is the same for each status -- which is consistent with expected behavior in a user_timeline for a single user -- it's a single user's tweets, after all. Were you expecting to see retweets included in the output as well? If so, you'll need to use the include_rts=true parameter also and examine the inner statuses (and their inner user objects) for the originating author's avatar.
