How To Display Your Photo When Leaving Comments

Come close, closer.  Have I got a "secret" for you.  You know how many of the blogs are on WordPress and when you leave a comment you sometimes show up as a blank profile or a quilt square?
Who is this person?  All you need to do to get your picture to show up is go over to Gravatar and sign up for a globally recognized avatar.  Sounds easy, doesn't it?  Trust me, it is!  You'll see their home page:  Just click on Get your Gravatar today >>



You can go from this:

Ahh, much better!  Happy commenting!


I'm busily working on my loveseat. As a matter of fact, by the time you read this, I will have given it a coat of paint (or two).  Yesterday I removed the upholstery, boy, that's my least favorite job.  Tomorrow and Friday I will be involved in a choir retreat, but I hope to have a post for you Friday, anyway. The loveseat reveal will be next week--Lord willing!  Take care and have a good rest of the week!

    You are a life saver! I'll have to try this but not now. I just spent the last 2 hours for my mother of all posts, the finale of the Family Rules Project! Whew! Done! Hope you can stop by today on What I Made Wednesday and see the pains of my labor.

    OK, I went to the site, started an account, uploaded a picture... does it go on my blog page also? Leaving a comment here will let me know, I guess...
