So the deal here is that we want to show some staff photos for a blog at work, but the machine we’re hosting on has no inbound port 80 traffic. So, no “going out to get a gravatar”. The gravatar has to be local. Has To be local. Trying out Skippy’s gravatar plugin seems to do a lot, but.. I’m not quite familiar enough with how it works yet to know how to get it to work on a inbound-port-80-blocked machine. I’ve set up a gravatar for myself, and I’ve set up the plugin to cache mine locally. So whenever it gets approved, things should become more clear to me on how this works.
ok, so in theory, if I md5 the email address of an address that doesn’t exist, like for my cat, thomas at some junk we like dot com, this should work since there’s a local file with the filename the plugin. So, is there an image of our cute cat on the left here?
