If you'd like to replace the 'guest' avatar with an image of your own next to your comments on either bitternepark.info or portswood.info, you can do so, freely and easily, by registering and uploading an image of your choice over at gravatar.com. Your avatar will also appear on other gravatar-enabled sites on the web. Just be sure to use the same email address you did when you registered with our sites (hint: you can check by logging in to bitternepark.info or portswood.info, then clicking on 'Your details' under the User Menu a little way down on the left hand side).
PS We also suggest you keep a copy of your avatar on your local machine, as, one day, we may move over to a different avatar system...
