How to Display My Face on Wordpress Comment?

The Picture in CommentsDo you want your face or image or pictures being displayed in any Wordpress blog that you commented? Tired of the blank box where it should display your pretty picture?

In Blogger, it will automatically display your avatars according to your settings in your Google account (make it Gmail avatar, Blogger, or any other related Google services).

But in Wordpress, it will depends whether you’re commenting using your Wordpress.com account or not. This would be a problem if you do not have one and you do not intend to register for Wordpress.com

Well, you might be using a self-hosted Wordpress and it doesn’t give you the avatar function like Wordpress.com. Worry no more, because you can now use Gravatar services.

Gravatar, which stands for Globally Recognized Avatars will display your picture according to the email address that you use to comment on any Wordpress blogs.

Simply stated, if I use my email (rearrange [at] gmail [dot] com) to comment in any Gravatars enabled blog, my picture will be used in every comments that I make using that email address.

Cool huh? You only need an email address to associate yourself with your selected pictures.

To utilize this service, you can go to Gravatar and register your email to create an account with them. After that, upload your selected avatar and you’re done!

Then, try to comment in any Wordpress blogs that enable the Gravatar to see your cute faces there besides your comment :P

Additional tips: Wordpress 2.5 is Gravatar enabled, so you only need a Gravatar Enabled WP-Theme

That’s all folks! I am quite busy at the moment, so I can only give you a simple tips today :)
