Or at least I think I did.
I should get my head examined. I just added another WordPress plugin. That’s two in about two hours.
This one adds gravatars to comments. A gravatar, in case you don’t know, is a globally recognized avatar or image associated with a person. Or, in this case, a person’s e-mail address.
To get a gravatar, sign up for a free account at gravatar.com, complete the registration process for your e-mail address, and upload an 80×80 pixel JPEG or PNG image you want to appear as your gravatar. The staff at gravatar.com will rate your image so if it’s not appropriate for some sites, it won’t appear there. Then, when you enter a comment on a gravatar-enabled blog or site, your image will appear with your comment.
I say I think I set it up properly because although I installed the Gravatar plugin for WordPress and inserted the code in the comment loop, I don’t have any comments from people with gravatars. (Mine hasn’t been approved yet.) So I can’t see if it’s working.
If you have a gravatar rated R or lower and want to show it off (and help me determine whether the plugin is working), add a comment to this post.
Otherwise, I’ll just have to wait until I’m rated and see if I appear.
