Gravatars

You may have noticed the “our readers” section in the sidebar of our website. You can get your picture and web address in that box, and it’s pretty easy to do!

Get yourself a Gravatar
Here’s the description from their website: “A gravatar, or globally recognized avatar, is quite simply an image that follows you from site to site appearing beside your name when you do things. Avatars help identify your posts on blogs and web forums, so why not on any site?” Cool! That means you can use it here at PalateBomb.com, or any of the thousands of sites that use the technology.

Make a comment in one of our articles
When you leave a comment at PalateBomb.com, you provide us with your email address (completey confidential, mind you). That email address is used to lookup your Gravatar and display it on our website. You may have left us a comment or two already, and if you used the same address that is in your new Gravatar account, your old comments will get your picture by them too!
