Creating the WordPress Avatar

We have been having a bit of trouble creating the little Avatar on WordPress, so I made these pages to help folks.
Let me know it it helps!
Confused? I was able to enter POSTS to the Blog and also put in a URL address to a cool Henry picture.. and do all that WITHOUT a WordPress account. The AVATAR is the little picture by my Screen Name when I make a post on any WordPress Blog. You have to have a WordPress account to have the Avatar show up on your posts.
You can select to just have a WordPress account without necessarily creating your own Blog page. If you choose to JUST have the account, you can later on create a Blog if you want to. That is what I did when creating my notes today and decided to setup (Rifkind’s World).
Once you have the WordPress Account created, you can then upload a picture to be your personal avatar.
Setup your WordPress account here:
http://wordpress.com/signup/
You have these choices:
Gimme a blog! (Like username.wordpress.com)
Just a username, please.
