My blog is Gravatar enabled.

By Gravatar, I mean Globally Recognized Avatar. Its an 80×80 pixel avatar image that appears beside your name when you comment, across any gravatar-enabled sites that you visit.

Cool eh? Frankly, I've visited gravatar-enabled sites before…If I remember correctly, Shehnaz's website is gravatar enabled (Yes, I've just confirmed that!). I just didn't know how commenter's avatars could appear beside their comments in other people's blogs…UNTIL TODAY.

It's uber cool lah, especially if you wanna let people see your pretty face across every comment that you drop.

All you gotta do is signup for a FREE gravatar.com account, and all that's required is your email address. Once you've signed up you can upload your avatar image and soon after you'll start seeing it on gravatar enabled weblogs!

How does it work actually? Well your gravatar image actually follows your email address. Therefore when you tag on gravatar-enabled blogs, be sure to use the email address that you registered with gravatar.com.

You only have to do it once! :) Sign up now! Then all your pictures can start spamming my site already lah!

  1. I have Gravatars in my blog too.

    The best part is that Gravatars just like WordPress are a part of Automattic. In the past, Gravatars were slow to load up and not consistent, now they are much much stable. Enjoy it!

    You also need a plugin to actually get the gravatars to load up, but with 2.5 coming up, I think they will include it in the WordPress API.

  2. Wow thanks for the input Darran! :)
