    i see from inspection of user export that the “image” field type is stored as an integer…i assume that this is the attachment_id, so i assume will this work, no?

    $imgid = get_user_meta( $user->ID, 'field-slug'));
    $imgurl = wp_get_attachment_image_url(intval($imgid));

    Yes – image fields are stored by post ID for the attachment.

    thanx, i just need to check for !empty($imgurl)…i was misled by wp_get_attachment_image_url dox:

    Return string|false Attachment URL or false if no image is available.

    it actually returns an empty string-\ gottaluv php-/
