How to get a photo to appear next to your comments
You may have noticed that next to some people’s comments is a small picture of themselves, such as:
If you want a picture to appear next to your comments you need to do two things.
- Visit Gravatar.com, create an account and upload a picture.
- Post a comment, giving the same email address as the one you’ve used on Gravatar.
How to show you are a party member when commenting
The option to put a photo next to your comment is open to everyone. In addition, if you’re a party member you can also have this indicated when you post a comment.
You just need to register for our online forum and get a username and password. Then in future, before commenting use the link that appears just above the comment box to login with your username. (On most devices for accessing the internet, you can turn on the setting for your login to be remembered so you do not have to do this each time.)
You will then see the party logo appearing next to your name when you post up comments.
Handy particularly as some readers tend to be a bit sceptical of commenters who say they are life-long party members but aren’t posting under a recognisable name and aren’t flagged up in this way.
Test away…

Re: Gravatar
I will hesitate for a long time before signing up to a service which assumes complete license to copy, distribute, sublicense (and the rest) my material, even if it’s just a little photo.
Note: there is no image by this comment.
@Ed Wilson
If Gravatar weren’t able to copy, distribute and sublicence your image, then how do you think a service that allows you have a common image across multiple websites would be able to work, what with the possibility otherwise of you coming back later and asking them for royalties for reproducing the image? Presumably, you don’t have similar objections to LDV being able to store, reproduce and distribute your comments to site visitors.
