Gravatar/Avatar
« on: May 13, 2012, 03:49:41 PM »
Just wondering . . . I see the option for no avatar, or the option to choose from existing.  I don't see the option to either load my own or use Gravatar.


Not a big deal, but wondering if I'm missing something obvious.

Thanks.

Yeah, I could do that.  The question is whether I should.  New to Dresden (read all 13 books in the past two months), and I obviously liked them, but will likely just lurk for a while. 


Although the fanfic part looks interesting (I dabble a bit in writing for fun). 


We'll see

Thanks.  Good info.  . . . and . . . uh . . . not big on hugs, but thanks.


By the way . . .  is your signature meant to be Italian?  Or is it some other language or dialect?  The coda is in Italian proper, but the rest is either a dialect or a different language.  Just wondering.

Having just finished Ghost Story, you know what would be neat . . . if the visibility on a personal avatar would be the number of posts as a percentage (i.e. I've got 7 posts as of this writing, so it would be 7% visible).

At the 100th post, the whole avatar would be visible. 

Yeah, I don''t know how to make that work; just thinking out loud.

(ETD: 5 posts; apparently I can't count)

Should have recognized it . . . Have good friends from Nicosia (I think that's the spelling if I remember correctly).  Never saw it written, and never learned it.  I grew up in Friuli, but never learned Friulan either.


Thanks.

It was pretty much killed off just prior to WWII.  Even I don't speak it.

I'm not much on the shy department . . . I'm more concerned about adding yet another activity to my full plate.  Between my blog, work, wanting to write, my photography hobby, and wanting to eat, there is little time left for recurring activities.


That said, I had a ball on a Firefly board I belong to (The Antisocial Bastards), and made friends who still keep in touch.  That board was hurt by FaceBook becoming popular.


We'll see how this goes, and thanks for the encouragement.
