MemberTo add a nice profile picture to your account here at HMDH you will need a Gravatar.
What’s a Gravatar? A Gravatar is a Globally Recognized Avatar. Users upload pictures and create your profile just once, and then when you participate in any Gravatar-enabled sites like this one, your Gravatar image will automatically follow you there.
How can I get a Gravatar you ask?
It’s easy and it’s free. Simply go to Gravatar’s website. Signup with the email that you used to create your account on this site. Add an avatar of yourself. This could be a picture of yourself, your company’s logo, or something unique. You only have to do it one time and chances are you won’t be changing your avatar a lot. So it’s more like a set it and forget it kind of thing.
After you have made an account on Gravatar you can set this site to use it be visiting your profile page found “here” or on your Student Dashboards side panel menu. In most cases, your new gravatar will not need to be set on this page but if it doesn’t show up after a couple of minutes it’s worth taking a peak.
Hope this helps. If you need help just drop me a line.
