So, the first thing I do for this blog, other than adding i Github-page to my github user and creating a CNAME file with eivind.bergstol.no to make this blog available on my own domain, is to add Gravatar to the About-page.

Sometimes I like to be lazy. That’s why I love OSS and that fact that people share code. I checked out Gravatars API documentation. And thats is OK. I now know how to do it. But the next hit on Google was this blog post. It’s a “how to” for a Jekyll plugin for Gravatar. However this does not work on github-pages because it is run in -safe mode.

Using Rake at this point to build this blog and push to Github i a step too far. This was ment to be a simple site. Using Jekyll has kind of allready complicated this project as far as I will go for now.

So I hashed (MD5) my email adress into ae543005bfa33e5b2436dbab7fe460fb and my image is available on http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/HASH

And by the way, I made the img round by using kramdown compile functionality for markdown:

{:refdef: class="round"}
![Eivind gravatar](http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/ae543005bfa33e5b2436dbab7fe460fb?s=85)
{: refdef}
.round img{
  border-radius: 50%;
}
