I don't want my Gravatar Account or its images linked to an email anymore

  So I changed the primary email, and then deleted the former, yet the account it is linked to is still displaying a Gravatar linked profile picture (even though I have also deleted that picture off of the account on top of changing the email).

  How can I get it to no longer display the profile picture? This is extremely frustrating and I deeply regret ever signing up for this website, if I could permanently delete my account I absolutely would in a heartbeat.

  Thanks for any help, I hope that once this is resolved I will never have to deal with Gravatar again.

  Hi there,

  Please go to your Gravatar profile page (https://en.gravatar.com/emails/) and click on the Remove Image link as shown in the following screenshot:

  If you’re logged-out from Gravatar, use your WordPress.com account to log in.

  Let me know if there’s anything else I can do for you. I’m happy to help.

  Thanks for the help. I did that already however (removing the image), I even tried changing my primary email afterwards and yet the old avatar is still appearing on the Gravatar linked website. All I want is for that avatar to no longer appear over there, thanks.

  I don’t see an image (other than the randomly generated one) on your Gravatar account. Can you please clear your browser’s cache and try again? Here’s how to do it:
