Issue with Discord.js avatarURL

.avatarURL for discord.js is not displaying any image.

I'm trying to make a command for my discord bot that lets someone ping another and have the bot display their profile picture. I quickly homed in on .avatarURL being the solution for this, but it doesn't seem to be displaying any image at all. Any help would be appreciated.

 if (message.content.startsWith(`${prefix}showpfp`)) {
        let embed = new Discord.RichEmbed().setTitle(tMember.displayName + "'s Profile Picture").setImage(tMember.avatarURL).setColor('#add8e6')

        message.channel.send(embed);
    }

after typing in command _showpfp @user the bot will respond with 

user's Profile Picture

and thats it...

The issue is that tMember doesn't have a property avatarURL. In your comment you say that you get the value of tMember by doing message.mentions.members.first(), however message.mentions.members is a collection of GuildMembers. A GuildMember doesn't have a property avatarURL.

However, the class User does have the property avatarURL. Therefor you need to fetch the member as an instance of User first. Luckily for you, the class GuildMember has a property .user which does just that.

So the fix for your problem is to change the parameter of the setImage to tMember.user.avatarURL, as can be seen below.

if (message.content.startsWith(`${prefix}showpfp`)) {
  let embed = new Discord.RichEmbed().setTitle(tMember.displayName + "'s Profile Picture").setImage(tMember.user.avatarURL).setColor('#add8e6')

  message.channel.send(embed);
}
