Adding your Gravatar to Blogger

Image
Updated to correct dead links. I recently learned about Gravatar ( g lobally r ecognized avatar ). It's a pretty neat website that allows you to host an avatar and use it all over the web. Some blogging applications have support for Gravatar but Blogger doesn't (yet). I have found out how to get your Gravatar onto Blogger. Simply go to gravatar.com and sign up, then upload your avatar and assign it to your email address. If you don't know what to use as an avatar you could Simpsonize yourself like I did. Once that is done you will need the link to your gravatar, that isn't easily accessible from the gravatar website, but you can work it out. The URL starts like this: http://www.gravatar.com/avatar.php?gravatar_id= On the end of the url you need to put a MD5 hash on the end of it. Visit miracle salad to create your MD5 hash. On the miracle salad page simply enter the email you used to sign-up to Gravatar in the "string" text box and click "md5".

Use Session Printers and or Proximity Printing when you have one of the following scenarios: Thin Clients are used that cannot connect to network printers Laptop users roam throughout sites
