Pro-tip of the week – Gravatars

I would like to interrupt our usual kid-centric, strange cooking, photographic life-expression for a short technical announcement.This is for all six of you who comment out there (and for Greg who now claims he will).  We know you all look better than this shady character.  So, since I’ve been programming VCR’s since I was a young boy, I feel it is my obligation to lead the handful of you into a new horizon.  This is how you add your own fancy personalized picture to your stunning comments.  All you need to do is go to Gravatar.com.  They will let you upload and crop a picture.  Using magical internet technology that same picture will show up in your comments as long as you comment with the same email address you use at Gravatar.   Simple enough?  Stop being so shady then!

While we are on comments, it has come to my attention that the salutation “G” is really “Grandmother” and not the more traditional “Gary” (or the even more typical “Gangsta”).  Seeing how “Papa-Daddy” and “Patricia” share a similar relationship, I think this practice should be abolished immediately.

And Greg, on a person note, don’t even think about using your bonnet-headed baby’s picture for your Gravatar profile.  She’s adorable, but there’s something unnerving about you commenting with a lace bonnet.  So don’t even think about it.  Don’t you test me…

That’s all.  The usually fare will continue shortly.  As July is quickly approaching you can to expect to see many great indoor pictures, as my wife declares the months of July and August to be strictly indoor affairs.

    Dang, it changed all my profile pics to this one. The first couple were of Jules in her Halloween Ladybug outfit. Very cute.

  7. Dad Says:

    This post is from Patricia Gail Bolding Hodges who happens to like shady pictures. Some of my best friends are pretty shady.

  8. Dana Says:

    Nice one, Mom. But I still don’t know why you don’t use your own name! Just type in “Mom”… shady, shady.

  9. Dad Says:

    Well, from now on IF I comment it will be with full nomenclature. Patricia Gail Bolding Hodges

    Well, let’s see if this works.

    I didn’t say “Your comment is awaiting moderation.” ???

  12. Nick Says:

    Look at all those lovely pictures. I’m so proud.

  13. Dana Says:

    I’m trying to figure out what Dad’s picture is. Taking a nap on a rock? I know Mom’s is a picture of her trapped in between two large rocks as they slowly move together…the old Star Wars/trash compactor gag.

    I’m married to Mr. Clean? If that’s the case, I expect to see some mopping going on.
