  I have tried on multiple occasions to upload a profile pic. It routes me to Gravatar, says my upload was successful, and then displays either some random picture of a design, or nothing at all. Very frustrating.

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

  Go to http://ciaracakes.wordpress.com/wp-admin/options-general.php

  Note that gravatars/blavatars (favicons) do not show up instantly after uploading them. Gravatar images are cached and frequently take several days to display after a change.

  Dashboard → Settings → General

  Do not keep uploading!
  Do not forget to select an image rating.

  See: http://en.support.wordpress.com/avatars/blavatars/

  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”.
