Do you want to be able to call this function in a template? If so, add another plugin on the template_safe_functions hook, and then add your function name into the allowed functions for conditionals, like so:

PHP Code:

$safe_functions[] = 'get_member_background'; 


Now, in your Template, you could go something like,

<vb:if condition="$post['background'] = get_member_background($post)"><div class="{vb:raw post.background}">
<vb:else />
<div class="userinfo">
</vb:if>

Oh thats a handy thing to know.
