Ever wonder how to display your own personalized graphic or picture whenever you comment on a WordPress blog? Or maybe you are interested in getting your thumbnail picture to show up in our discussion forum?
Then this is the post for you! The solution you need is known as a Gravatar (short for a Globally Recognized Avatar), and it couldn’t be easier to get one.
How to Create a Gravatar:
Head over to http://en.gravatar.com/. Locate the Log in/Sign up drop down menu and select “Sign up.”
Input your e-mail address.
You will then be sent a message asking you to verify your information. Follow the instructions in the e-mail.
Once done, head back to the Gravatar site and select Manage My Gravatars from the My Account drop down menu.
Upload your picture from your hard drive or your online image to the Gravatar site.
That’s it. Your image should now follow you everywhere you go in the land of WordPress blogs.
Now, go get your pretty face uploaded so we can all see you on Monday!

And, as always, when you see this button:
Ah crap. I totally missed this.
Will you be offering the opportunity again?
Ah crap. I totally missed this.
Will there be another opportunity find a tribe?
Love this!!!
I also have been linking to other peoples posts for about a week rather than my own…
lol..silly me. trix are for kids!
I never got an email with my tribe information, what do I do now?
500 people signed up. Fran has been working all day long and is still emailing.
If you haven’t received it by tomorrow morning, email us: sitsgirls@gmail.com
Thanks for your patience.

I’m so looking forward to this forum and meeting other bloggers as well. I recently figured out how to upload a photo to Gravatar during the 31DBBB and so glad that I did. Again looking forward and thanks to the SITS Girls!!
love my new group quack
Yeah, looking forward to my new tribe
What a beautiful day today! Happy Monday! Looking forward to a great week ….. catching up on my blogging and trying to get organized!
Can’t wait to met my new tribe
ok i hope that worked!
I can’t wait to start today!
I’m 99% positive I signed up, and hope I’m right because it sounds like this is going to be an incredible, not-to-be-missed experience! I’ve been out of the loop this past week because of my 20th high school reunion, but now that it’s over I’m looking forward to getting back on track with my SITStas and meeting my “tribe”!

Can I still follow along?? I can’t believe I missed this. I just found out about it! Bummer.
Alright so this is a bit off topic but I noticed that when I comment I don’t see my latest post like I see everybody else. Am I doing something wrong.
Alright never mind
Thanks
Just got my gravatar. I have always wanted one, but didn’t know how to create it. Thank you very much

Thanks for a marvelous posting! I actually enjoyed reading it, you may be a great author.I will always bookmark your blog and will often come back in the foreseeable future. I want to encourage you to continue your great writing, have a nice morning!
I cannot create a gravatar from my personal picture file on this website. I follow instructions but then am told that my name is already in use or my password does not match up. What am I doing wrong?
