How to list all registered users on your wordpress site

In my latest project i was required to add a community touch to a site by listing the Name, Email, Nickname, URI and Gravatar of all the registered users on the site. I came with the following solution : I made a new page template called users and added the following lines of php to the template :

<?php
/*

        First we set how we’ll want to sort the user list.

        * ID – User ID number.

        * user_login – User Login name.

        * user_nicename – User Nice name ( nice version of login name ).

        * user_email – User Email Address.

        * user_url – User Website URL.

        * user_registered – User Registration date.

*/
$sort= "user_registered";
//the default avatar to display in case gravatar is not available for a user

$default = "http://www.somewhere.com/some-directory/some-image.png";
//the size of the gravatar , here 96px

$size = 96;
//Build the custom database query to fetch all user IDs

$all_users_id = $wpdb->get_col( $wpdb->prepare(

        "SELECT $wpdb->users.ID FROM $wpdb->users ORDER BY %s ASC"

        , $sort ));

//we got all the IDs, now loop through them to get individual IDs

foreach ( $all_users_id as $i_users_id ) :
// get user info by calling get_userdata() on each id

$user = get_userdata( $i_users_id );
//GETTING INFO FROM EACH USERS

//get the user’s email ID

$email = $user->user_email;
//build the gravatar URL

$grav_url = "http://www.gravatar.com/avatar.php?

gravatar_id=".md5( strtolower($email) ).

"&default=".urlencode($default).

"&size=".$size;
//get the user’s full name

$user_fullname=$user->first_name . ‘ ‘ . $user->last_name;
//get the user’s URI

$user_url=$user->user_url;
//get the user’s nickname

$user_nickname=$user->nickname;
//get the user’s description ( the biographical info field, )

$user_profile=$user->description;
?>

<!– Now here you can display each users info using the variables defined above –>

<?php

endforeach; // end the users loop.

?>
