Gravatar

Another neat idea, which I heard of over at PerlWorld, is Gravatar. It has to be said, it’s pretty simple, but it works just fine! Why can I never have these great ideas? It’s like ping-o-matic - another simple but really efective service!

I’m going to implement it here when I get around to it, but there are loads of things I need to do first with the site.

Need to come up with a cunning idea myself now too…

    I’ve not had a chance to do it yet! Will get ’round to it soon (ish) though ;-)

    Planning on a re-design too, and an upgrade yadayadayada…

    Added a temp. stop gap… Will need to work on the layout and maybe install the plugin.

    In the meantime, here is the code in case anyone needs it:

    $gurl = "http://www.gravatar.com/avatar.php?size=20&" .
       "gravatar_id=" . md5($comment->comment_author_email);

    print '<img width="20" height="20" src="' . $gurl . '"/>';
