Description
On the Initiate Handshake form, the Avatar field is considered to have "No value entered" if the initiator is using an Avatar picked via the Avatar Selection module. This might because avatars are normally stored in the files/pictures folder but Avatar Selection stores the predefined ones in files/avatar_selection.
Attached are some screenshots to show you what I mean. You can find the avatar selection module at http://drupal.org/project/avatar_selection.
Drupal 5.5, PHP 5.2.5, MySQL 5.0.45, Apache/2. I'll be happy to supply any other information if necessary. I can't think of anything else right now.

Forgot to mention I'm using the latest stable version of Avatar Selection (5.x-2.3).

OK. I see where you're going with this. I need you to investigate a little more. What handshake looks for is the user image file location found in the $user object (IIRC). So printf the $user object and see what the difference is and why it isn't stored in the same slot. I would like to know why that module isn't simply using the same stuff as the regular picture thingy-ma-jig.
