I know this must sound like a really silly question, but for some reason I been struggling with getting the text portion of my profile link to go to the user's profile. I'm using custom code to display my avatar image and user text. The issue is occurring on this part of the site:
The avatar links fine, part of the username might link in some cases. For example the stacked account's link works for the first few characters when you hover over the text, but doesn't display at all for "Josh". To test this swap out the text to "Josh" in Firebug. The issue is still problematic with the stacked username too.
The PHP/HTML code used to display the username/avatar can be found at:

I've checked multiple sources online and could not get the text link to work.

When I take it out of a span tag it suddenly works perfectly, but then I can't make the text vertically aligned (center).
