i actually been playing with it the whole time not just sitting waiting for some one to spoon me lol, i was just coming back to say i got it =)

but to answer your question, no it's not for the postbit but i might do something similar with the postbit(s) =) this is a sidebar addon im working on you can check out here (toggles on the right side)
i had to take a plugin already made (navbar avatar or something) and ive re-wrote it a little, not quite to where i want it yet plus id rather be able to change the images and things in the CP if i do publicly release it, but its coming along =)

FINAL CODE I ENDED UP USING:

<if condition="$navbaravatarurl">
<img class="sbav" src="$navbaravatarurl" />
<else />
<if condition="$bbuserinfo['field5'] == 'Male'">
<img class="sbav" width="100px" src="images/misc/nom.png" />
</if>
<if condition="$bbuserinfo['field5'] == 'Female'">
<img class="sbav" width="100px" src="images/misc/nof.png" />
</if>
<if condition="$bbuserinfo['field5'] != 'Female' AND $bbuserinfo['field5'] != 'Male'">
<img class="sbav" width="100px" src="images/misc/no.png" />
</if>
</if>
