How do I change my gravatar photo?...I tried with no success under edit.
Thank-you Mike ,all is good.I was able to add my avatar picture of Gizmo.
You mentioned you were having trouble getting gravatars to work, so we looked in to it. It should be pulling in from your Gravatar account now, but you don't seem to have one set up yet - it's showing the default Gravatar logo.
I've unchecked the Gravatar option on your profile for now (so your uploaded image shows up), but it may be an issue with your Gravatar account.
You should be able to check your email on their site to see if your Gravatar account is working properly: http://en.gravatar.com/site/check
What happened to the gravatars?? Mine is uploaded to my profile and was working before -- now it's just a blue box.
Oh, and if anybody else wants to know what a Gravatar is, it's a Globally Recognized Avatar - one that follows you so you don't have to upload it to every forum or community you belong to.
there's a great video on the Gravatar site that explains it.
Our developer is making some changes, and Gravatars should be sorted out - however, it looks like you just have the default, or haven't set up a Gravatar yet, so the default icon shows up.
Mike I did all of this with no luck...what am I doing wrong?
Mike ,I tried this without success....at the top right hand of the screen it says this e-mail address already exists ,have you forgotten your password?I am not sure what I am doing wrong...I made the picture smaller to make sure it was an appropiate size?
You can click on "My Profile" and choose edit - you should be able to click the browse button and upload an image. Make sure any other options you're also changing at the time are correct, and click Submit at the bottom of the page.
Hope this helps,
Mike
