You have to go to http://server-name/?q=admin/user. Here you can see all users you have. If you put your mouse on the links that seems : http://server-name/?q=user/"ID" that represent the page of a particular user, you can see the id of that user. I hope you understand me, I don´t speak english very well.

Is there a way to have Drupal insert the actual user ID from some variable in the primary or secondary link instead of hacking the theme with the $user->
Perhaps something like a primary link to user/%uid%/edit.

I'd like to get the user id and pass it to FCK editors file browser an access ONLY the current users images. Clues?
