Community widgets problem, also Gravatar oddities
-
Staff may already be aware of this, but I thought I would add my $0.02…
A friend of mine alerted me to the fact that my regular avatar has disappeared from Gravatar, to be replaced with the default gray silhouette. There is a monster lurking in my comments when I post to the blogs of others *LOL*, that was the first oddity that I became aware of.
Not only that, but my observant friend’s avatar has disappeared from my extensive Community listing, to be replaced with a black square linking to my own latest post! Instead of the black square, my friend sees the gray silhouette.
These two issues may seem incongruous to each other, and yet since the Gravatar has gone missing it does a weird thing to the community block…
Freaky things! Anyone else experience this?

Now I find http://en.gravatar.com/wildwanderingirl
See: http://en.support.wordpress.com/avatars/blavatars/
http://en.support.wordpress.com/avatars/gravatars/Gravatars/blavatars do not show up instantly after uploading them. Gravatar images are cached and frequently take several days to display after a change. Do not keep uploading!
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/
To enable Gravatar display and hovercard display on your blog go to > Settings > Discussion and scroll way done the page to “Avatars”.

Thanks for the advice… It is strange, though, that my gravatar disappeared (also my friend had to re-subscribe to my blog as hers disappeared also) although i had not touched anything, only made a few seasonal changes to my photo site yesterday…
