I don't have an account with that stupid website, and have no interest in creating one.
I don't understand why you can't just upload your own image to this site and use that.
Makes no sense to me, but oh well.
I guess I'll always have this default image.

Patxi,

From the FAQ:

We control our avatars through gravatar.com. "Gravatar" means globally recognized avatar, if you didn't already know - and you can set one up for free right now (to be used universally).
