I've noticed that a lot of people are using the standard auto-generated avatars on feedbooks, and I'm wondering if it's because they don't know how to get their preferred pic up there? Although I did consider the 'don't care' option too
Anyhow, because it puzzled me for a while, I thought I'd post steps:
- Go to
http://gravatar.com
- If it doesn't recognise you (happens if you're all over the internet and have cookies enabled, like me), create an account (
Log in to or Sign up for Gravatar -> Sign up)
- Give it the email address with which you signed up to feedbooks. Or if you're like me and can't remember, give it one of the emails with which you sign up to sites, confirm the email that it'll send, then click
Add an email address to associate another with the same account
- Upload a pic
- Wait a few minutes
In theory, you'll now have a custom avatar appearing on Feedbooks.
And possibly half a dozen other places.
