Ok. Tried the CB Profile Gallery. Nice module.
I like the scrolling feature and that I can dictate the size of the image. However, still cant link to an external URL, but if I have to just link to their profile then that will have to do for now.
Problem: There is a user that no longer exists (i was doing testing a while back), and the image folder does not get deleted with the user. So I thought ok, I will just delete the image folder of the user located at
/images/comprofiler/plug_profilegallery/userid
So I just deleted that folder. But now the scrolling module, displays a default jpg and png icons. I guess its looking for the images and cant find it.
So how do I delete a gallery after a user is deleted? and how do i get rid of these icons?

Possibly, I recommend a short cache time (3mins at most).must have been a caching issue?
No, it'll delete their CB ProfileGallery entries if the user is deleted. This assumes they're deleted properly through CB > User Management.so do i have to delete the gallery folders manually if i delete a user?

oh ok. Its possible I may have deleted them through the Joomla user list.
How can I change the link of the image to go to their site? Is it possible to find the code and put in a substitute (inside the code itself) to a field on their profile that is a url? Instead of having it link to their profile?

You can't; profile gallery and image fields alike upload directly to your server.How can I change the link of the image to go to their site?
You could have a Web Address field for them to put the URL to their site and anytime someone views their profile it'll have that link visible for anyone to click.Is it possible to find the code and put in a substitute (inside the code itself) to a field on their profile that is a url? Instead of having it link to their profile?

Ok. So this sort of worked. However, the URL link for the banners/images, that leads to their profile, sometimes has a "&itemid=xxx" and sometimes it doesn't. I'm guessing its based on the page that the banner is clicked from (I guess it inherits an item id from the page its on?
This poses a problem, because I have the profile pages of users set up as 2 columns (just a menu on the left. Sometimes when the banner/image is clicked, it displays the profile as 1 column (no left side menu). Do I have the profile page set up wrong? Shouldnt all profile page views be a specific itemid to display the proper modules? How is the random image modules compiling this URL?
Sometimes its:
/index.php?option=com_comprofiler&task=userProfile&user=194&tab=getProfileGalleryTab
and other times its:
/index.php?option=com_comprofiler&task=userProfile&user=194&tab=getProfileGalleryTab&Itemid=481 or some other itemid.
Can I hardcode it to be a specific itemid so that it displays the proper profile page structure?
