How do I refer to a Confluence user's profile picture on a wiki page?

I'd like to include all the team member's picture on a team wiki page in Confluence.  How do I refer to their user profile picture within the wiki?

I see that you tagged your question with "confluence-cloud", not sure if you could use the https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/User+Profile+Macro ?

Glad, you have solved the issue! "confluence-cloud" refers to Confluence installation which is hosted by Atlassian's. It has certain restrictions on customizations you can do and plugins you can use/install (and on the solutions people could provide) When you host your Confluence server then customization options are practically limitless.

Thanks Sash, I'm not sure how to use what you are suggesting - but it's put me onto a solution that works for me. First I've no idea what tagging "confluence-cloud" means to this board... I assume that it means the site is hosted off site of my corp. Reading the page on the User Profile Macro... I tried... in the Wiki - click on + icon (insert more content) select item "Other macros..." in pop up search box type "profile" then select the Profile Picture macro - in that macro type or try to guess a username. And one gets the user's avatar (photo they choose) - which is just what I wanted! Thanks

Hi David,

You can add the person's picture, and then create a link in his picture to point to the profile.

Cheers,

Ah... what??? Not sure we understand the question the same. I assume the person has a photo in their profile. I don't want to upload a picture of them, I don't possess one. I want to reuse the photo that the site already has of the person. How do I refer to a users profile picture? I assume it some sort of Confluence macro magic...
