How can I use an eepanel to display a standalone portrait of myself or my target?

Question in title. I'm certain it has something to do with actual LUA scripting on the panel, but I can't find a resource with google that might show me what script to use exactly. If someone could provide me with whatever snippet of code I'd need to use, or at least point me to a site where I might find it, I'd be ecstatic. It's the last thing I need to do to get my UI just right. :)

Thanks in advance!

Eepanels, afaik, will just add background/border texture and color to elements that already exist (at least that's all I used it for?). You'd have to get an addon to handle the portrait and anchor and/or parent the panel to that portrait.

 

You can use the following macro to get the name of the portrait frame while your mouse is hovering over it (and any other UI element):

/print GetMouseFocus():GetName()

I was afraid of that, but I'm not aware of any addons that handle the portrait in such a way. :( If anyone has any suggestions for an addon I might try, I'd love to hear suggestions. Pitbull demands that my portraits be attached to my unitframe, which I'm trying to change.

I've heard of ZMobDB being able to do this.

Here's a screen of a guy using it for just the portrait:

It's the main middle guy (looks like he's standing on a chair) and the smaller 2 models to the left and right of the main one.
