Get your own image to show with your comments

By fusse on October-10-2012 | Filed under Site Updates | Tags : gravatar, Indie Vision Music, IVM | Share

[Update: Post updated today to allow for all your "new" readers/fans of IVM to get your comment pic shown (Gravatar)] Do you want to have your own image instead of the default IVM image to show with your comments? Well, it’s easy and here is how you do it: Go to www.gravatar.com and click on the button that says “Get your Gravatar today >>” and just follow the instructions. Make sure that you use the same e-mail address as you use here at Indie Vision Music and your image will work on our site.

Can’t get it to work? Leave a comment and we will help!

If you want to have a transparent image like I have, you can use PNG (or GIF) format with transparency, gravatar supports that. On ‘how to create a transparent PNG’, you might wanna Google for that.

  I figured out what’s going on with yours. You need to double check the email address you are using on IVM. I believe it’s missing the correct “.com” once you fix the email address, your pic will show up :)
- Taylor C. says:
  October 10, 2012 at 11:00 am | Back to top
  Yeah, just wait a few minutes and refresh the page; it will eventually show up.
