Looking to add avatars to your site?  Why make all of your readers re-upload their avatar to yet another site when you can just use the one they have.  MyAvatars is a WordPress plugin that uses your Gravatar or MyBlogLog avatar and puts it next to your post.  If you have neither MyBlogLog or Gravatar avatars clicking on the avatar silhouette cause the plugin to open up MyBlogLog so you can register.  Adding MyBlogLog or Gravatar avatars to your site is a really nice feature and will have your users asking “how did they know”?

Oh and the Avatar above is NOT me.

    I guess I’ll be the first to leave a comment to show off how the MyAvatar wordpress plugin works. And yes that IS me.

    Nice! I was looking for something similar on the wordpress.org site the other day.

    I must say, it was a very nice surprise to see you got this setup on your website. Gravatar is an awesome system.

    I’ve actually created a Gravatar class if you click the link in my name. Loosely coupled and works like a dream - it also has a cache with an expiration date for the avatar - to save on loading times. It can merely load the avatar in locally.
