First things first: What’s a gravatar?
A gravatar is a Globally Recognized AVATAR. Because it is “globally recognized” it follows you around on the Web, and appears beside your name when you leave a comment on a blog (like this one!) to help identify your posts on Web forums.
Getting a gravatar is free at http://en.gravatar.com/.
Important to note: Gravatar will ask for your email address. Be sure to enter the email address that you’ll use most often when leaving comments. Think of that email address as the “password” to pull your gravatar into the post. (You can register multiple email addresses and upload multiple images.)
Enjoy. It’s free. And it will help build your digital imprint.

P.S. Sparky Firepants made that fancy cartoon of me. Contact him if you need any animation done. Tell him I sent you.
