A Gravatar is an "avatar" image that follows you from site to site when you do things like blog or comment on blogs.
Creating a gravatar associated with all of your Wordpress comments is very important as it adds credibility and humanizes not just the comments you post on your website, but the comments that you post on others' websites. This leads to a better, more interactive and trustworthy discussion.
To create a gravatar, it is a very easy process. You simply go to Gravatar.com and set-up an account.
==> Gravatar.com
**Do know that you can only have one gravatar per email address, so if you want multiple gravatar accounts you will need to use unique email addresses that are not registered within the gravatar.com platform.
In this video I am going to walk you through the following:
- Creating a Gravatar.com account
- Adding an image to your gravatar account
- How to test your gravatar live
- Associating a gravatar with a user in Wordpress.
- Adding a gravatar to the SiteComments platform
Note, if you are wanted to add a brand new User to Wordpress, you can follow this training which will walk you through the process;

If you have any questions about how gravatars work, how to set them up or anything discussed in this video, please leave your comments below and I will be more than happy to help you out. :)
Or will I have to create the account with a different email?

After you do that, you will just need to verify your email address that your associating your new Gravatar Image with.

'I would try creating another gravatar with a new email address. Gravatar (which is owned by Wordpress) is infamous for low delivery rates with their verification emails.
Unfortunately, there is nothing you can do to try to reverify and what I recommend is that you create a brand new account under a new email address. I have had to do this a number of times over the years.'
The activation email isn't showing up in my email account. I've checked my spam folder and tried to resend the email, but it's still not there.
I used my domain email address, but I hadn't connected it to my gmail yet. I have done it now, and I know it works, but when I click resend the confirmation email, it still doesn't show up. Anyone who knows what the problem is?
I appreciate the help,
Thanks,
Mira
