Just wanted to suggest creating some icons and content for people to place on their sites to link to this site. What I'm saying is, most of my users are not common internet savvy people, but I imagine some will sign up for gravatars, but when I went looking for some "Powered by Gravatars" images/logos I didn't find any. I ended up creating my own which you can see if you visit one of the articles on my site. It's essentially the gravatar G with a "Powered by Gravatars" simple and sweet, but it may convince people to check it out. So, I think if you created a few logos and linking text for people that don't know what a gravatar is, it'd be easier to figure out. I had to view the source code over at zen-habits to figure out how they did their avatars, that's how I found gravatar! -Dustin Just finished enabling Gravatars on my own website.

It takes off that pain of uploading new profile pics constantly. I just wish there was wider support for it. How could website builders be so blind to what is obviously a tremendous boost to user acknowledgement. Guess it will take time. I love Gravatar.

Not everybody is wanting to get back some default, I'd like to be able to say "here's an MD5, all I need is yay or nay that this avatar exists". Preferably via JSON, so I can do this in javascript. I've been trying to make an easy way to get my gravatars into my Google account as images for people, but without some way to tell, this turns out to be impossible.

I love Gravatar for its ease of use and its great team of helpful developers. That it's available for WP, Silverlight and with .NET controls is just icing on the well-layered cake that is Gravatar's roots in universal and thoughtful development for web users world-wide:) A bit like a masquerade party, the web and networking through it, Gravatar helps genuine people to keep a face that’ll get them in and invited to more of the exclusive get-togethers, such as seminars both on and off-line.
