## Description

Receiving a comment on your blog post is great and the more comments the better 
the feeling. It means that not only your post is good but your site becomes more
and more popular and thrust-worthy. When comments start rolling in, you must make
sure they display properly and look good. It’s great when a comment author has taken
the time to upload a custom image of herself on her Gravatar account, but as we 
all know only a handful of people actually do that. This means that your precious
comment area ends up filled with no-face, gray avatar thumbnails that look plane
boring.

Well, that ends here and now!

Take control of the way your comment area looks by installing Avatar Project. Avatar
Project is a plugin that will replace all avatar icons that don’t have a custom 
avatar assigned to it. Depending on your websites look, feel and theme, choose one
of our Avatar Project icon packs. Currently you have a choice between colorful blobers,
cups hoped up on caffeine, smug cat faces and a bunch of actual human portraits.

This plugin will be useful for not only real, functioning blogs but for theme developers
and designers as well. Install Avatar Project, write a couple of sample comments
and make your comment area demonstration look much nicer than it would with the 
default avatars.

I use those colorful blobber avatars for my blog comments. My blog visitors rarely
have their own profile pictures uploaded so my comment area had those gray avatars
mostly. Now it looks much nicer! Thanks and keep up the good work!
