You can create your Gravatar at http://en.gravatar.com/ and then, in  
theory, it would show up in the comments panel when you post -- on a  
blog that uses WordPress 2.5. You get a chance to rate your avatar --  
er Gravatar -- in the traditionally MPAA fashion, such as G, PG13,  
etc., and set your blog as to what level you'll accept.

Works for me at www.macnightowl.com
