GameLuv, Now With Avatars!

After a little more fiddling than I’d like to have put into it we now have avatar icons in our comments! The one caveat is that it’s not hosted locally on the server and it’s another site you have to sign up for; Gravatar.com. I know, I know, how many logins and passwords can one person keep track of? But this one’s pretty cool. Once you sign up, any WordPress blog you comment on with the associated e-mail address will automatically pull your avatar. You Mac users can even integrate your Gravatar with your OS. They’re working on a lot more integration so some day your avatar may show up where you least expect it… like on your free TaxACT.com tax return PDF. For now we’ll just enjoy having silly little icons on our GameLuv comments (like these default icons that will represent you until you upload your own). So go sign up or you’ll have a lame default icon for all your comments and that’s just ‘boo’.

P.S. You’re welcome for reminding you to go file your taxes
