Why would you deny people that option? I'm trying to think of a reason to disallow it but I can't.

I forgot I even had a Gravatar until I signed up here. It's handy to have an initial avatar before you figure out how to upload one.

I didn't know gravatar until xenforo introduce it to me / my member didn't whats that for ...
is great to have an option for admin to disallow this

Gravatar is a nice deal. If you use the same email address to sign up for sites with the same username. Saves time when uploading images, especially if the site doesn't want to allow users to upload images to the server for their avatar.

Gravatar is a nice deal...

Yeah, it is ... but for other sites it's a NoGo ... very simple.

Yes, Gravatar is a nice deal. I use Gravatar on my own site. But I have customer who do not like this.

I have suggested an ACP option to disable Gravatar here: http://xenforo.com/community/threads/introduce-an-acp-option-to-enable-disable-gravatar.7389/

Like the first post of that thread if you want to see it implemented.

You got my "like"
Thanks a lot. It would be easier.

I don't care if it's a feature or not, I'm just trying to understand how it could possibly be a negative. "I don't like it," isn't really what I was looking for.

I've heard folks in the past complain how it's on a third party server and not hosted locally so it could potentially slow down the loading speeds. I myself have yet to use the service so I'm unaware.

I have read in the announcment for XF Beta5 that it is possible to disable the Gravatar.com feature.
Where in ACP can I disable the Gravatar.com stuff ?

 

[Paul B]

ACP -> Options -> Users and Registration: Enable Gravatar Support
