API issue: display avatar of user profile viewing, not user logged in session was created by HelloShell

I have the following code to display an image uploaded by the user (cb_logo)much the same as the avatar works (I have that as well), and I have the code working, but it only displays when the user is logged in and site wide. I need it to display for anyone who visits the profile. I need it to display the profile being viewed instead of the viewer, regardless if they are logged in or not.

Code:

<?php
  global $_CB_framework, $mainframe;
				 
  if ( defined( 'JPATH_ADMINISTRATOR' ) ) {
  if ( ! file_exists( JPATH_ADMINISTRATOR . '/components/com_comprofiler/plugin.foundation.php' ) ) {
   echo 'CB not installed!';
	 return;
	}
				 
  include_once( JPATH_ADMINISTRATOR . '/components/com_comprofiler/plugin.foundation.php' );
  } else {
    if ( ! file_exists( $mainframe->getCfg( 'absolute_path' ) . '/administrator/components/com_comprofiler/plugin.foundation.php' ) ) {
						echo 'CB not installed!';
						return;
	}
				 
    include_once( $mainframe->getCfg( 'absolute_path' ) . '/administrator/components/com_comprofiler/plugin.foundation.php' );
				}
				 
   cbimport( 'cb.html' );
				 
   $cbUser		=&	CBuser::getInstance( (int) $_CB_framework->myId() );
				 
   if ( ! $cbUser ) {
   $cbUser	=&	CBuser::getInstance( null );
   }
				 
   $user		=&	$cbUser->getUserData();
  $logo		=	$cbUser->getField( 'cb_logo' );
				 
				 
   echo $logo;

			?>

I apologize in advance for the formatting to make your eyes bleed.

myId always returns the user viewing. You need to use displayedUser if you want the ID of the user being displayed. Note this only works on CB profiles. Example as follows.

Code:

$userId = $_CB_framework->displayedUser();
