How do I name a jpg image for the User Profile plugin?

Hi,

I installed the User Profile plugin, and it states the following for having the author's image diplayed in each entry, which I am assuming would look like a newpaper article author image:

If enabled, a picture for the user will be shown within each entry to visually indicate who has written the entry. The image file must be placed in the "img" Subfolder of your selected template and be called like the authorname. All special characters (quotes, spaces, ...) must be replaced by an "_" inside the filename.

I selected yes, I placed the jpg image in the img subfolder of the template I am using, but I am not sure about the statement, " . . .and be called like the authorname." Does that mean to name the image exactly how Serendipity names my authorname, and if yes how do I find how the software names my authorname?

Thanks

Hi!

The authorname is shown within your "Personal preferences". Or also inside the footer of each entry that is written by you on your blog ("Written by XXX in ...").

HTH,

Thank you. I thought it was looking for how it was called from a database or something like that.
