  • It's only displayed on the one page, the author's home page, which I bet is veeery unvisited on a day by day basis.

    I think that to make any difference it would need to be displayed on the distro/module pages as well.
    • Yeah, that's my feeling as well. I suggested it to Graham. Let him know you feel the same [cpan.org].
      • Can we just have the source for search.cpan, please? I'm tired of all changes having to go through one person, AND I'm tired of reimplementing all the good stuff just to get to the same place search.cpan is now.
        • Although Graham has been wonderfully responsive and helpful of late, I have to second this opinion.
      • Seeing that this has now been implemented, frankly I think it looks wrong. I don't *want* to see people's faces in my documentation, thanks. If it absolutely has to be done, a scaled-down 16x16 version on the left of the author's name at the top of the page would be a more appropriate place for it.
        • If a 40x40 image on a web page really bothers you, you're free to block it. That's the great thing about the web. If you haven't yet figured out how to block images in a web browser, here ya go! [adblockplus.org] That will make your entire browsing experience much more enjoyable.

          • Did you even read his complaint? He doesn’t want his own pic to show up on his POD pages when other people look at them. What is the point of telling him how he can block all Gravatars everywhere on the web in his own browser?

            Which is, btw, the reason I’m not even interested in uploading a Gravatar at the time being. Having it on the author page, great; on the POD pages? Not so much.
