 * I have seen a comments plugin on various sites where the commenter’s gravatar
   appears beside their name.Can anyone point me to this plugin because I cannot
   seem to find it?
 * Examples: [http://bonitainpink.com/](http://bonitainpink.com/)

 * Thank you TechGnome, but none of the plugins on that appear to be what I am looking
   for either.
 * I was hoping someone would know excatly what plugin was being used on the two
   sites above.

 * Ahhh, I see now.I believe it’s the get recent comments plugin that has the option
   to include gravatars.
 * Thanks guys 🙂

 * Okay, I have no idea what plugin I am looking for at this point I am confused.
   I found a comments plugin that shows gravatars but like plugins it is poorly 
   explained.So if anyone knows for sure what the name of the plugin is the site
   above use, I would appreciate it 🙂

 * Those links I posted? Did you notice they list all the plugin files for the two
   blogs you’re interested?
 * From there, with our friends at google, surely you could do the legwork to figure
   out which plugins the two sites have in common and then which one it is you’re
   after.

 * Wowzer. I had to run check my blog. Happy to find that you can’t view the equivalent
   URL on my site, it returns a 403 Forbidden. Is that safe to have your plugins
   folder exposed?

 * I use the Comvatars plugin myself: [http://soeren-weber.net/post/2005/08/07/44/](http://soeren-weber.net/post/2005/08/07/44/)
 * It uses functions from these two plugins to display the images beside the comments:
   
   Gravatars: [http://www.skippy.net/blog/2005/03/24/gravatars/](http://www.skippy.net/blog/2005/03/24/gravatars/)
   Favatars: [http://dev.wp-plugins.org/wiki/favatars](http://dev.wp-plugins.org/wiki/favatars)
 * Gravatars gets the images from gravatars.com and so forth.
    Favatars gets the
   images from the favicon of the commenter’s own blog, if they include one.
 * Works well. You do need to install and activate all three plugins, but the Comvatars
   plugin controls it all. It inserts the images into your comments for you and 
   deals with the other two plugins automagically.

 * I did do the legwork and it took me [here](http://blog.jodies.de/archiv/2004/11/13/recent-comments/).
   I even have the plugin installed and it works perfectly.Unfortunately it’s explanation
   as to how to get gravatars to show up leaves a lot to be desired.

 * acutally [this](http://www.wiphey.com/2006/01/30/silly-sidebar-comments/) is 
   what they used for those gravatar comment thingys.
