I am attempting to have a user's name appear on the bottom of the user's profile picture. Can anyone let me know what the php code is for that? I have checked the "Evaluate text as PHP code" box, and tried a few different values but have had no success as of yet. Note, my server currently is suffering from "Low Quality / Poor Performance GD Image Filtering" so perhaps this is part of the problem, but I was hoping to find out what the correct php code should be to print out the user's name on the image.
Thanks

Assuming that the image in question was actually owned by - attached to - a node, and that a user owned the node, that should be working.
How are you attaching your images and assigning ownership?
Can you try putting 

drupal_set_message(print_r(get_defined_vars(),1));

into the code area and seeing what values are available?

$user = db_fetch_object(db_query('SELECT name FROM {users} WHERE uid = %d', $node->uid));
return $user->name;

i dont understand why this is not working ???

I would expect that code to work - yes.
Were you able to confirm that the $node was being loaded correctly in the first place? The algorithm that goes from filepath->file->filefield->node can be unreliable due to occasional changes in the CCK DB schema.
