Thank you @foxly and @gagan0123 for your responses and clearing up the differences in the two distinct plugins. While I’m using bp-media component by rtCamp, I’m excited to see what the bp-media team releases.
Thank you @gagan0123 for directing me to a better solution than the one I hacked together since posting my original comment. Once I learned that the plugin uses the built-in wordpress media library, I was able to piece together a custom query to return image urls of media components uploaded by the displayed user.
Again, thank you both for your contributions to the WP community.
