Forum Avatar Issues

[Member mowest]

Hello, love love Antix Linux, will post about that in other post.

I’m wondering how to get your Avatar from Gravatar to show up in the Antix Linux forums?

I logged into Gravatar using my WordPress.com account.
I registered for the AntiX Forum with a different user name but the same email as my WordPress.com Account. (I didn’t realize that the AntiX-forum was a WordPress.com site until after I registered.
Created an avatar in Gravatar, but it doesn’t show up in the Forum.

Do I have to register anew with my WordPress.com account for it to work?

I know it is a minor issue unrelated to Antix, but relate to the Forum.

Hi mowest,

I think you have to add your antix login name to your gravatar account. I just used the same
for both so take as a suggest with a grain of sand to try.

Well, I couldn’t get the Gravatar site to work with the Antix Linux site. I couldn’t use the same login on Gravatar that I used with here because someone else was using “mowest” I guess. When I used that user name it didn’t let me log into Gravatar using my password that I created for AntiX. When I did the “Forgot My Password” recovery, Gravatar never emailed me a link. So I’m guessing that someone else on Gravatar has the user name “mowest”. When I logged in with my WordPress.com account that I have, there didn’t seem to be a place to add Antix Linux to the Gravatar profile that would link the two sites. So I just ended up “manually” adding my pic avatar to this account.

Thanks linuxdaddy for attempting to help me with that issue.
