have you looked at this about the avatars not showing up. https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/custom-avatars-arent-shown-on-single-blogs-in-wpmu/

@boonebgorges you opened my eyes to a easier way to doing this. i think your way is much more light than what i was doing. how would you suggest getting the blog owner id/user id and be sure that it is 1 admin?
