CB Integration - Avatar - Cobalt CCK was created by pepperstreet

Hello,
I am looking for a hint, how to get the correct default Avatar image in the Cobalt CCK component . Its the successor and total rewrite of MightyExtensions Resources.

It will be full integrated later, but currently it just supports the user avatar and profile link. There is a little issue with the Default Avatar image (nophoto_n.png). The integration plugin always points to the DEFAULT template.

Example standard CB Default template image path:
.../components/com_comprofiler/plugin/templates/default/images/avatar/nophoto_n.png

That is not correct... if the admin or user selects another CB template, it should use the Avatar from his selected template:
.../components/com_comprofiler/plugin/templates/MyCurrentTemplate/images/avatar/nophoto_n.png

How to get the current template?
Can you help out or give a hint how to improve it?
I attached the current php file.

Thanks in advance.

You'll need to use the getField API. Please see the below tutorials as you'll first need to load in CBs API for usage.
