 * I have filled in all the info on the Gravatar site. I have an image uploaded 
   and connected to the email [admin@piperles.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/gravatar-23/admin@piperles.com?output_format=md)
   yet the image never shows up on the wordpress (.org, not .com)…anywhere.
    I do
   not like that program Gravatar.it is too confusing. is there no other substitute
   for it?

 * It depends on where on your site you want to display Gravatar, because it must
   support Gravatar. For example, comments section usually supports Gravatar so 
   when you comment and/or reply to comments your Gravatar would display – if your
   user profile’s email matches that of the Gravatar.
 * Gravatar support throughout your website/theme can vary depending on how developer
   built the theme.
 * If you want to use a local avatar/image instead, try this plugin:
    [https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/wp-user-avatar/](https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/wp-user-avatar/)
 * Last thing, Gravatar is a “global” service. This means that your avatar photo
   will show up across the web on sites that support Gravatar… not just wordpress.
   com and your personal site.
 * Hope that helps.
