Comment Icons

By Anne Skove, Esq.

Yes, it's a rare post from Tom!

In our never ending quest to muck about with the system, we've added comment icons. It's done via a free service called Gravatar, short for Globally Recognized Avatar.

If you make an account on Gravatar and upload an image for your email address, then that image will show up next to any comment you make using that email address. It'll also work with a load of other blogs out there.

The icons here is scaled to 64 x 64 pixels. Other blogs may scale to larger or (more typically) smaller sizes.
