  My avtar picture I uploaded when I first created my blog disappeared. The only thing I had changed was the e-mail address. Are avatars linked to e-mail? If so WHY? This makes no sense as the e-mail address is supposed to be private.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  For best practices for uploading gravatars, avatars and blavatars scroll down to below the video here: http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2010/01/24/gravatar-avatar-blavatar/

  Note: Gravatar images are cached and frequently take several days to display after a change. Do not keep uploading! The first place they tend to display is here in the forums. If several days have passed and that change is not in evidence then post here for Gravatar support > http://en.gravatar.com/site/contact-us/
