Have you ever looked at the comments on a site and some people have little avatars next to their names and other people just have a head with a question mark on it? Or worse yet, a blue haired anime chick getting it from behind? Well, the people who don’t have cool little avatars are the ones that have taken the 30 seconds it takes to get a Gravatar.
Basically, the gravatar is a an avatar that gets used by lots of sites and is tied to your email address. So if you go to http://en.gravatar.com/site/signup, drop in your email address and put up a pic. Then, any site you go to that uses them will display it when you use your email address (which pretty much all sites require anyway) to post a comment. It’s a lot better than the lame default Question Mark Head guy. Although I do admit that the anime girl gettin’ it is pretty cool.
So make a comment using your email address – if you get the anime girl, then head over to the gravatar site, then come back and test it out. It spiffs up the posts, and you get bonus points (at least from me) if your gravatar has a boob in it.
are you just now discovering Gravatar? surely not.
I have had one forever! I just want everyone else to get one.
And don’t call me Shirley.
So the guy with the question mark is more lame than a guy with a black T?
You know what they say about boobs…you’ve seen one, you want to see the rest. At least that’s what I’ve heard…
I have no idea if I have a gravatar or not.
If I don’t, I’m not likely to go hunt one down – at least not tonight.
Too many other things require my attention. (dishes, laundry, babies, laundry, cats, laundry, husband, laundry…)
Hi!
Just want to check if I got that gravatar thingy or not? Kakakakakaka….
Your gravatar post really make my day.
Strangely enough I’ve had a gravitar for ages, but always forget about it.
Logged in for this comment specially, so if it doesn’t work I’m going to be annoyed.
Mmm, okay it did. 😉
Get with the times people!
