# Replacing gravatar

 * How can I replace the gravatar of the author bio box with a self hosted image?
   
   I know that I can do this with a plugin, but I have only one author. I use a 
   child theme. Thanks, your help will be much appreciated.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Freplacing-gravatar-2%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * I’m interested in this too.
 * I really wish we didn’t have to register with Gravatar or install a plugin just
   to show an author image. I’m also the only author on my site.
