What is a Gravatar?
A reader asks:
Whats up with my new picture? For the record, I hate it. Do my comments suck? If so, pound me! I dont care, but dont assign me the “dumbass” face! sheesh!
Dear Reader,
When you leave a comment your avatar is generated randomly unless you have a Gravatar. Go there and you’ll be finished in about three minutes. All you need is an email address and the photo you want to use. After that, any time you comment on a blog that is Gravatar-enabled (many, many blogs) the pic will appear automatically.
Do it now or I’ll attach the above pic to all of your comments.
Just kidding.

In an attempt to change my pic.. I failed. Now it is just a black box! Owell, give me back the green face. I can handle it.
