Improve display of user pictures [#1102490]

When the "Show user pictures in relationship pages" setting is enabled, user pictures are not being shown on the "Pending" page (/relationships/requests). They are being shown on the other tabs, however.

Also, when the "Show user pictures in relationship pages" setting is enabled, user pictures are not being shown using the "thumbnail" style. However, the thumbnail style may be quite large by default (100x100) making it difficult to get a lot of relationships on one page. Yet, the site admin may not want to resize the thumbnail settings because it effects other areas of the site. It would be better if the site admin could specify (on the settings page) the image style to be used on relationship pages... alternately the user relationships module could provide its own image style.

I can confirm that this is a problem.

1) I have newest dev
2) I have applied Berdir's patch

Results on pending page only show user image in the node image style preset. For this page (pending) I have no idea how to set a different image style to test other than to set the node image style to something different.

On the other tabs, the user images break if you attempt to run them through a different image style. If you do not select an image style the friends list will show the user images at the node image style preset.

This might be the desired behavior for the module maintainer, but for me this does not work. My node image style is much too large for use with UR. So I can have a giant display or nothing at the moment.

For the user pages, I'm using the provided view that came with UR plus one extra field for user picture. Like I said, selecting no image style there works, selecting an image style breaks the image. I think the problem is that UR is running the images through the node style and selecting another image makes it try and run it through twice on two different styles, which will break the image.

As for the OP, I can't assume what might be causing his image problem not showing on the pending pages, but I think we're having the same problem with it not showing in the thumbnail style as he puts it.
