I was also wondering if anyone knew how to make the avatar change sides:
__________________________________________________ _____

USERNAME_______________________________# Posts {AVATAR}
CUSTOM Title____________________________Reputation{AVATAR }
USER Online_____________________________ something {Avatar}

yadda yadda yadda......
