I’ve actually created a Gravatar class if you click the link in my name. Loosely coupled and works like a dream - it also has a cache with an expiration date for the avatar - to save on loading times. It can merely load the avatar in locally.

And now it’s completely free service - add as many avatars and email id’s you want

I love gravatars and I am glad they aquired it. Hopefully, it will be seemlessly integrated into wordpress next version…

There is a good review of gravatars at http://www.thetechbrief.com/2007/10/12/get-yourself-a-gravatar-while-theyre-still-hot/

I am not using Gravatar but instead I use MyAvatar which is a plugin for Wordpress.

This allows the same thing to happen but it’s just that the avatar shown will be identical with the one in MyBlogLog.

This eases a lot of things because most of the readers will not take the extra step to upload an avatar just for bloghopping.

If you see this Gravatar anywhere on the web, it’s me!
