Hi littleredyarn,
You Gravatar should display in the comments when you are logged in to WordPress.

I see this image http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/9eec1e5bf91b93931f8c1c8d0415ebb1?s=48&d=identicon&r=g
You can upload your gravatar image that will appear next to your username at Dashboard> Users -> My Profile in the dashboard.
http://en.support.wordpress.com/avatars/ Do not forget to select a rating for your image.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!

I have uploaded a couple of different pictures to use for my gravatar. They upload fine, but there is no “dotted box” to allow me to crop/resize the picture, which they need in order to fit. How do I get the dotted box to show up?

@timethief: Thanks for taking time to respond. I’ve tried using both my Lenovo desktop and my HP laptop to upload the gravatar. I am running Windows 8.0 and Internet Explorer 10 (the most current version) on both. The picture uploads fine, I just can’t crop it to fit. I tried making the picture smaller (gravatar sized) before I uploaded it, but it still needs to be cropped. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
