Your graduated choices for a custom avatar

I’ve never been a fan of the default avatars available for WordPress from Gravatar. You’d think Gravatar would offer you an option in your account to point to a custom default for those leaving a comment on your blog. Since that isn’t the case I went looking for a WP plugin, and found this nifty option to install in your wp-content/plugins directory. Now I can create custom avatars, and give those leaving a comment the option of choosing one. Granted it’s all my artwork, but it sure beats the bland quilt square, boring mystery man or (not scary) monster avatars. For the moment, my custom avatar choices are limited, but size matters, so comment away. The name of the plugin is Custom Avatars for  Comments created by Nicolas Kuttler.
