Or, go directly to http://en.gravatar.com/ then click on the button "Get your Gravatar Today" and you will be in business. Be sure an include all of the email addresses that you post under. (BTW, you can have a different Gravatar for each email address.) On all of my websites (and most others), when you post a comment, it asks for you email address. That is the address that will link back to grab the Gravatar attached to that address.When you sign up at the Gravatar site and associate an avatar (picture or image from your computer or from the web), it SHOULD (not guaranteed to work immediately) then show up on almost every site where you have posted a comment using that address.
