gravatar?
Permalink
I did not use gravatar very often but since I've built a couple of wordpress blogs lately I uploaded a picture on gravatar.com and started to like it.
I wonder what you think about it? Adding a method to the user class like "getGravatarPicture" should be fairly easy I guess..

I personally think that gravatar support is a must for the blogging community. On the CMS side it only makes since to offer it as a feature that can be implemented with a click.
I think we'd look to incorporate this as we release the myAccount area that you need for forums to work... an alternative to the flash thumbnailer thing.. (which I can tell already is going to be a nightmare to support)
I agree..
but C5 already has quite a few things where gravatar could be used.
- Sites like this community
- The comment/guestbook block could use it
- The forum package could use it
I could probably help with a few parts but I guess it doesn't make much sense since talking about how to write 10 lines of code usually takes longer than writing the code...

i see this as part of decentralizing users as a whole.. perhaps OpenID + gravitar... easily post guestbook comments on any c5 yer allowed too..
OpenID + Gravatar is an awesome idea
For anybody monitoring this post, my gravatar add-on was just approved:http://www.concrete5.org/marketplace/addons/gravatar-add-on/...
