Have you been wondering on how to set up an image or photo to appear next to your name while you comment on many websites? If so, this post is for you. This can be achieved by setting up a ‘Gravatar‘ – Globally Recognized Avatar. In other terms, this is simply an avatar image that follows you from blog to blog appearing beside your name when you comment on gravatar enabled sites. Yes! my site is gravatar enabled. So, if you set up a gravatar account, All your comments will be displayed next to your choice of Avatar Image.
Now let me help you in setting up a Gravatar. All you need to do is sign up for a Gravatar account. Of course this service is free, and all that’s required is your email address. Once you’ve signed up you can upload your avatar image and soon after you’ll start seeing it on gravatar enabled blogs! You can set up multiple email addresses with different photos of your choice with just one account with Gravatar. So go ahead and set up your Gravatar and show off yourself with an image on various blogs!

It is way too simple.
Thanks. It is not only for blog admins, it is for the readers as well. If you create a Gravatar for your mail id that you use to comment on various blogs with, your image would appear in the above comment
