How about gravatar support for the user profile?

It would involve:

1) in admin/user/settings ( and duplicated as Access Control permissions)
-"allow user gravatars",
- "allow users to disable gravatars"

2) in user profile: "use my gravatar" and an image of the current gravatar associated with user email

3) Gravatar should be displayed instead of user's picture, unless a picture is available or gravatar is disabled.

Hmmm.. I know, this is a tall order. I am still learning my way around Drupal, but I do promise to be an early adopter (till I learn enough to contribute).

Yes, it will be interesting to extend the Gravatar module for the user's profile. I put that in the features request queue ! ;-)

Work in progress, but i'm not able to display gravatar on user profile page. I suppose, we must to use a specific template, but it dosen't exist (user-profile.tpl.php ?!). Maybe in Drupal 6.x ?

Now you can set user rights to authorize or not to display their avatar.

In addition, registered users can choose not to use their avatar (if they have the right) via their profile page (with a glimpse of their avatar-based e-mail account).
