Is there a way to have a players avatar to the left of their Welcome (User Info) box?

[Vital Signs]

As we all know the standard vBulletin has your Welcome (User Info) box in the top right above the forums informing you of new PM's and etc.

I was hoping to be able to display their avatar to the left of that area in the blank space on my forums, shown below



and make it so it would appear more like this:



Any ideas on how this can be done?

Thanks so much if you can help!!!
