Okay, if you want the user avatars to display directly below the titles, you will need to edit your "MEMBERINFO" template as follows:

Locate the code:

						<vb:if condition="$prepared['usertitle']">
							<br />
							<span class="usertitle">{vb:raw prepared.usertitle}</span>
						</vb:if>

And directly below this, add:

						<img src="{vb:raw show.avatar}" alt="{vb:rawphrase xs_avatar, {vb:raw prepared.username}}" id="user_avatar" style="margin: 5px 0" />

Now, to make the variable "$show['avatar']" contain a link to the user's full sized avatar image, you need to create the following plugin:

Product: vBulletin

Hook Location: member_complete

Title: Create URL To Avatar

Plugin PHP Code:

PHP Code:

$avatar_url = fetch_avatar_url($prepared['userid']);
$show['avatar'] = $avatar_url[0]; 


Plugin is Active: Yes

Click "Save."

Now, to prevent the thumbnailed avatar from displaying, edit your "memberinfo_block_ministats" template by locationg the code:

			<vb:if condition="$prepared['avatarurl']">
			<dl class="stats">
				<dt>{vb:rawphrase avatar}</dt>
				<dd class="avatar"><img src="{vb:raw prepared.avatarurl}" alt="{vb:rawphrase xs_avatar, {vb:raw prepared.username}}" id="user_avatar" /></dd>
			</dl>
			</vb:if>

and comment it out as follows:

			<vb:comment><vb:if condition="$prepared['avatarurl']">
			<dl class="stats">
				<dt>{vb:rawphrase avatar}</dt>
				<dd class="avatar"><img src="{vb:raw prepared.avatarurl}" alt="{vb:rawphrase xs_avatar, {vb:raw prepared.username}}" id="user_avatar" /></dd>
			</dl>
			</vb:if></vb:comment>

Once you verify this works as you desire, we can move on to the other issues, about which at this point I am still unclear.
