Hello there, I am new to web2py and learning by making a simple Social 
Network app, I got started with the image blog app found on github/appliances 
(https://github.com/mdipierro/web2py-appliances). First I added this table:

auth.settings.extra_fields['auth_user']= [

  Field('profile_picture','upload',required=True, notnull=True, requires=[
IS_IMAGE(), RESIZE(650, 650)]),

  Field('profile_thumbs','upload',readable=False, compute=lambda r: THUMB(r[
'profile_picture']))

]

in order to modify the auth_user table and add the profile_thumbs field, so 
the photo uploaded on profile_picture gets resized and posted on database. 


on the controller I am using this code:


 def profile():

    tables = db().select(db.auth_user.ALL)

    return dict(tables=tables)


and for the view:


{{for table in tables:}}

    <img src="{{=URL('default', 'download', args=table.profile_picture)}}" 
/> <br />

{{pass}}


All the pictures on the db are displayed I would like to only have the 
picture for the user logged in.


I would like to ask if anybody could help or point me to the right 
direction to a tutorial where I can make a profile page to each user 
displaying their information such as first_name, last_name and 
profile_picture to begin with but sure I will need to expand that in later 
date. How could be the right procedure to do this? Should I use the 
auth_user data to have this page? 


Thank you very much, I think this problem might have been asked before but 
hope someone can help anyway :)

Regards

Ricardo Bento
