Gravatars Are Go
If you're new here, please consider subscribing to my RSS feed. Thanks very much for visiting!
I’ve been following the RSS feeds in the admin panel of my WordPress installation lately - especially regarding Gravatar (the site which provides Globally Recognized Avatars that can be used across any Gravatar-compatible site, much like a forum icon). I saw Matt Mullenweg’s post about Automattic’s purchase of Gravatar. Then I saw his post which enabled Gravatars on his personal blog. Apparently, so did Dougal Campbell, who has cooked up a wonderful little Easy Gravatars Plugin using Matt’s code snippet. Thanks to these guys, I signed up and made a Gravatar, and now Gravatars are enabled on my comments. My guess is that this will soon be incorporated into WordPress - but for now, get with the program! Make a Gravatar - it will appear on my site when you comment. Then set your blog up to use them, and they’ll appear on yours too! Yay!

See? My current Gravatar is the Apple Japan seal that came on the top of my new computer. Geeky, no? I’ll change it when I find something suitable. In the meantime, go get one for yourself. I set the default image to the Gravatar logo so that people can figure out what it’s all about.

Wow, nice website. I just saw that you commented on one of my blog post and thanks. BTW! Your website theme looks great, easy on the eyes. “I’m testin’ my Gravatar!”

So…what is yours? (And is anyone else noticing some weird formatting problems? Cause…that’s not cool.)
