Wordpress Gravatars - WordpressVideos.TV

This tutorial is continued with full written instructions at http://WordpressVideos.TV

In this video, let's talk about how to use gravatars. Now if you have been blogging for a while and especially if you have left comments on someone else's blog, then you would notice that the comment usually has the image of the commenter associated with them; for example, as you can see here, some of the commenters actually have an image (that) automatically appears for every comment that they leave on other blogs, whereas for some other commenters, you would see a general-looking blank image here.

Now, these images are what they call gravatars or globally recognized avatars. And avatar, of course, is a popular term from forums and from games, which means a profile picture, if you wanna put it that way; but generally, by getting a gravatar, you standardize the image of you that appears across any blogs that you leave comments on.

To get a gravatar itself, you just need to go to Gravatar.co
