Intense Debate Introduces Gravatar Support
June 13, 2008 | Posted by Heather
The folks at comment tracking service Intense Debate have rolled out Gravatar support.
Now all Intense Debate users can choose to use a Gravatar instead of upload a file for their avatar. Just enter your email address and you’re done. Couldn’t get much simpler than that.
Gravatars used through Intense Debate appear on all comments that a user makes on every site powered by Intense Debate, along with links to the user’s social profiles and other info — all of which goes along nicely with the “global” in Gravatar.
For more details, check out the post over on Inside the Debate.

Thanks for the help spreading the word about IntenseDebate. We’re pretty excited about supporting Gravatars. Congrats on a great service! IntenseDebate uses have been requesting Gravatar support for some time now and we’re pleased to answer their calls.
Now if only I was submitting this comment using IntenseDebate…
Thanks again,
Michael Koenig

There’s a weird error occuring on my magazine site. Look at the comments on this entry. In Internet Explorer my gravatar is different than the one I have picked as my gravatar. In Firefox, however, my selected gravatar shows. Whattup?

Still don’t get it. I meant, “Couldn’t get much simpler than that” Yes I agree, but gravatar will not display unique avatar anymore since you provide it right? For how many avatar? Explain me, please

A nice development. Centralized system is often better. Less load for the servers

[...] 2. Intense Debate: Intense Debate is a platform for commenting. It’s a pretty sleek service which lets you build up a reputation the more you comment, which is also based on voting comments up and down. You can have a global profile, and the comments themselves lay out in a nice threaded fashion. If you are installing or removing Intense Debate, there are ways to import or export your comments. I don’t use Intense Debate on my site, but I’ve used it hear and there (here on Battlemouth for example), and they have a great Intro video on their site. Like the idea of Intense Debate, but still want Gravatars? Well, luckily for you, they support Gravatars! [...]
