I have database field: avatar_url whichs save filename of picture in database and a folder: images/avatars where the picture get saved saved. This is for jpeg, gif and png files. I have a profile page for users where I want to show their picture next to their related information in a table. The problem is that the picture does show on the page. What am I doing wrong (please see code below)
