Probably another art community would be a better start than b3ta.There are other sites he could join, like DeviantArt, which is bit wanky, but it's a start.
If he's going to join b3ta, that's hey wow great, but if all he does is post his stuff and doesn't get involved he will piss some board members off and should expect grief (see above for examples). Here ends the friendly advice.
Edit: Just had a look at his stuff (by him, do you mean you?) It's pretty good stuff, but not really b3ta unless he does more funny. Tell 'him' to try DeviantArt.

By him, I mean him.I have ladybits and rather less talent. He already has a deviantart account. I know that there are some people who have managed to translate talent into money not just internet cred and I know some of them use b3ta now and then, but deviantart doesn't seem to be the place to get advice on that, just a really nice ego massage.

Well, he could try sending a portfolio to agencies. Back in the bad old days this meant walking round That London with a door-sized case full of drawings under your arm. I'm sure if he (politely) emailed a few agencies he'd get some feedback and probably some practical advice as well.
