The officials forums are set up to work with Gravatar.

  1. Using the above link, log into your Gravatar account or create a new account.
  2. If you made a new account, activate your account by clicking the link in the registration e-mail.
  3. Add your Play.net e-mail address to your Gravatar account. (Every Play.net account has one; mail sent to your Play.net address is forwarded to your account's registered e-mail address, make sure it is set to do so in your play.net account settings. You can get your address by clicking the "Email Author" link next to one of your posts.)
  4. Validate that e-mail address by clicking the link in the registration e-mail.
  5. Upload the image that you want to use by clicking the "add a new image" link.
  6. If you want to use less than the whole image, use the crop tool to select the portion you want to use.
  7. Click the appropriate rating.
  8. Select the e-mail address(es) you want this image to be associated with.

Within a few minutes, all of your Play.net posts should automatically start using your new Gravatar. (You may need to clear your browser's cache to see the new avatar.)
