Avatars not showing up

Freichatx is not displaying the avatars in the buddy list window, it isntead shows some default image, and im not too sure where its grabbing it from, but how might I be able to get it it from the users profile?

I am using jomsocial 2.2 for the user profiles

Also, not sure if this is related, but I noticed that during the installation it asked what database(or something) I wanted to install freichat into, I went with "Joomla" as per the installation video, though i had an option for "joomla with jomsocial"

It was not asking for the database , but it was asking for you to choose the appropriate
integration driver , which in your case is Joomla with JomSocial.

Since Joomla does not support Avatars by default so it is showing the default image in freichat folder.

Now you only have to change your driver for JomSocial.
You dont have to reinstall again to do that.
You can manually do it.

Go to ~/freichat/arg.php , there you will find a variable
$driver = "Joomla";
change it to
$driver = "JSocial";
