  I’ve uploaded profile photo but the avatar doesn’t change. I’ve cleared history, refreshed, logged out. My photo appears in the hover feature. Any other ideas?

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

  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.
  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”.

  Ok thank you; I’ll quit messing with it for a few days and see what happens.

  If you have followed the recommendations and the gravatar still does not appear in a couple of days then post again please.
