Who Has Gravatar Issues

Too many accounts as it is, not going to bother with an Avatar
You realize the purpose of Gravatar is to consolidate accounts specifically? That's why I love it as an end user. Set it once and it takes care of nearly every site I am on.

Mine!!!!!!!

Yeah it's not worth it. Enough stuff tracks us online as it is. Why give it over unless we want to?
-
Avoiding Gravatar doesn't change that. The info is the same either way. If you want to control the tracking you have to control the email address, not avoid Gravatar image hosting. The people having the panic about those things aren't thinking through the technical end of how these things work and are only hurting themselves while not realizing how much they are handing over to others. They are actually making their privacy worse, not better.

That's weird. Was your old one Gravatar?
Looks like my old one was uploaded here. So after the update it started using my Gravatar. I changed my Gravatar image to what I wanted it to be, now it isn't working.

You have an avatar a second ago, then it disappeared. Maybe it was my cache being funky.

Same. It was there and now it isn't.

Ok, did the "rating" of ML change recently? I figured out that I had to set my pics on gravatar to "G" rated, then everything is working. I had them all set to "PG" before, I erased and re-uploaded, got the same issue when set to "PG". Set it to "G", all is well.

Wow, now that is something interesting.
-
@scottalanmiller It wouldn't show my profile pic here or on gravatar until I changed that setting.
-
Mine are all G, so not sure.
-
I have always had mine at "G" and it still isn't working for me

My cash is being funky too... I could have sworn that I have another twenty but it's not there....

When I go into settings I can choose to do the default Icon or Gravatar. I can't change it at all between the 2.

Which is it set to?
-
It should not let you choose, it is Gravatar only.
-
Set to the Default M. Oh, wait just watched it pop up (the "M" that is).
-
Except it's not now
-
Changing my new one to G solved my problem.
