How do I get my picture to show up with my comments on your blog?

It’s frequently asked questions time on Diving into the Details!  With this one, we’re not diving too deep. Having your picture (a.k.a. avatar) appear in my blog comments takes only a couple of minutes.  Go ahead, time yourself and let me know if I’m wrong.
  1. Go to the Gravatar website.
  2. Create an account.
  3. Verify your e-mail address.
  4. Upload a picture, and you’re done!
Gravatar associates your picture with your e-mail address whenever you leave a comment on a WordPress blog (and a few other blog platforms).  If you have multiple e-mail addresses like I do, you’ll either want to confirm multiple e-mail accounts with Gravatar or make sure you are consistenly using the same e-mail address when you comment on blogs.
