Extension:Gravatar

The Gravatar extension provides avatars based on the user's email address, using the Gravatar.com service, or a libravatar instance.

Supported skins

 * Vector
 * Timeless
 * MonoBook
 * Mirage
 * Any skin that provides an element with the classes

Privacy concerns
The use of gravatar avatars is guarded by the  preference. Users have to explicitly opt-in to allow their email address to be used for retrieving an avatar.

Site administrators should not set  to   in, unless users have non-personal email addresses set, or a gravatar proxy is active. In that case, disabling the user preference through might be desirable, as the Gravatar privacy policy no longer applies.

Configuration

 * - This setting specifies the avatar service to connect to. By default, this is //gravatar.com.
 * - This setting controls the default avatar for users who have not opted-in or have no valid email address set. It can either be the url to an image, or one of the keywords supported by gravatar.
 * - This setting controls the rating that avatars should have.
 * - This setting allows excluding certain skins from having the user's avatar displayed in the interface.
