Need avatar on page

[AndyPandy]

Hello, I am making my own custom portal page and need an avatar on it. I have installed avatar in navbar mod, it worked, however there was a conflict with another mod (groups commune) which called the navbar and also called user's avatars and so the mod wont work.

Basically I need some modification that will allow avatars to be shown on my custom page
(portal) without being called in global templates (headers, navbars, etc).

Thanks,
Andy
