Comment on HackerBuddy

Comments

I am using a Gmail address that is registered with a "+" filter, i.e. `firstnamelastname+hackerbuddy@gmail.com`, and I think it breaks Gravatar. I'm getting a broken image.

Yes, that will break Gravatar since its algorithm uses the hash of the entire address to find your image.

I found the culprit: my ad-blocker (Ad Muncher)'s blacklist has picked Gravatar up somehow.

I'll contact Ad Muncher and alert them to the problem.

Add your commented email address to your Gravatar account.
