what’s a gravatar anyway?

Ever wonder how some commenters have a photo attached to their comments?  For today’s post, I thought I’d give y’all a little tutorial that will have you, too, globally recognized in no time!

All you need to do is get yourselves a Gravatar.  A gravawhat?!  A Gravatar is a globally recognized avatar.  And an avatar {for you slower folk} is a graphic representation of yourself in cyberspace that you design.  So basically your profile.

So how do you get yourself a Gravatar?  Head on over here, register, upload a pic, set up a profile and you’re off to the races.

And next time you leave a comment, I expect to see “mystery man” replaced with all your pretty faces!  ;)
