I’ve been assisting John Philpin in optimizing the site and noticed several author profiles with missing avatars. I believe I’ve identified the reason and a workaround but before implementing a solution, I have two questions for each of you. My questions are at the end of this post.
If you want to reply by comment, a simple âyesâ or no to each question is I need. If you prefer you may contact me privately.
Questions:
- Do you have a Gravatar profile? (just say ‘no’ if not sure)
- If your avatar is one of the missing ones, do you want your own custom avatar to appear on your Just Good Music profile?
Thanks.
@JustGoodMusic 1. Yes, I do have a gravatar picture
i have a gravitar – but it doesnât always show – I think because i haven’t tied all the various versions of my email to it – at least I think that is it.

Jacob – Thanks for responding.
John – Yep. I think email address used is the key factor. If an author has a Gravatar profile, it’s based on
a singleemail address so their user profile here would have to usethe samean address matching one listed in their Gravatar profile. In the case of those without Gravatar profiles, I guessing that if an author signs up here using the same email address as they used to join Micro Blog, their avatar should show up here.Just my theory. I’m hoping more authors will reply to verify all of that.

At gravatar.com you can log on and go to https://en.gravatar.com/emails/ and all and any emails you want to associate with that gravatar can be added … you can also have multiple images and associate each email with different images.
Thanks John. I stand corrected – appreciate having just learned something.
