I wish i could get mine to work…. <.< i don’t think the instructions on here or the gravatar site themselves are very userfriendly (although i am one of few who seem to have issues :D)

Yeah! Love the update Alex! And the features are awesome! I’ve been visiting my sister and my brother-in-law in Philly for her College graduation and just got back two days ago with a pounding headache!

Ah, my gravatar is fixed! Turns out I had to clear out some caches.

It’s 32×32 pixel - the one at gravatar is 80×80. I like your gravatar, VonSkippy - now if only I can get mine to work!

So what is the pixel dimensions on the gravatar? It seems to be a wee bit smaller here then on the test display on the main gravatar site.

The font used on the header is the same - just a little bit bigger. The font on the sidebar is new (there anyways, it’s always been on the bottom).

@Selvo: it’s a gentle hint for commenters to be nice. Maybe it’ll work subconsciously ….

Just did another round of optimization, this time trying to increase page load. I think we’ve managed to serve the content up much faster now, with much less “lag” from the ad server.

Funny thing: I can’t get my gravatar to work. Must find that bug later …

I loved playing Gravitar when I was younger - wasted many a quarter on that game.

//oh gravAtar - never mind.

Looks good. Nice to see you didnt tamper with how simple it is. I hate it when sites are complex. And your next post and past post made it more simple to navigate. Also, Thanks for the gravatar! It makes comments more remember-able of people who say it.

It’s a minor upgrade Just a lot of subtle color since I like Neatorama to remain with mostly white background.

I don’t see a whole lot of difference, but since I usually read on RSS these days I might have just missed it.

The previous and next buttons will make things easier for a lot of people. But for fun, I can’t wait to see what gravatars the regulars select!

I’ve been seeing my gravatar in comments for a long time. Was it invisible to others?
