    Assuming you can get the user id into a variable called $userId, you can change the $n variable as was previously suggested.

    $timestamp = time();
$n = "image/$userId_$timestamp.$ext";

    When you execute the move_uploaded_file() method, the file will be moved into the image directory relative to the location of your upload script. You might want to make sure that the image folder already exists, and is writable.
