$Person->files()

Returns a stack of files that $Person has uploaded that are not associated with a specific piece of content. These are considered associated with the person's profile.

The main use of this is to create an avatar for the person. In the default templates, this file is named 'img'.

You can pull this file out of the stack by using the -contains() function:

if ($img = $Person->files()->contains('file_name','img')) {
  $img->write('thumbnail');
} else {
  echo "No image";
}
