 * Dear all,
 * I am really having trouble finding the way to add an author box to my article
   posts. I love the point theme, but this is just a last option that I cannot figure
   out yet.
 * My website: [http://www.noodbreektwet.nl](http://www.noodbreektwet.nl)
 * The author box I am talking about should be underneath every blogpost (on the
   blogpost page itself, so not homepage. Some information and an avatar etc.)
 * Regards

 * I don’t know (in a rush, so i don’t have the time to install it on my devbox),
   but with most themes, you add your info in your profile (in the WordPress Admin.
   In the sidebar to the left, under ”Users”). There you can set ”About you”.
 * For the author picture, i think (most themes do) it just grabs the Gravatar (
   gravatar.com) picture for your email (in the Profile settings).

 * If you want to use another picture instead of the Gravatar one, use a plugin:

   _Remember to do theme adjustments if necessary._
