Syntax
{{avatar>[user|mail]?[size]|[title]}}
{{gravatar>[user|mail]?[size]|[title]}}
| [user] | the registered user for which you want to display an avatar | required |
|---|---|---|
| [mail] | the e-mail address for which you want to display an avatar image | required |
| [size] | either s(mall) = 20×20 pixel, m(edium) = 40×40 pixel, l(arge) = 80×80 pixel, xl (extra large) = 120×120 pixel | optional; default is medium |
| [title] | the name of the person the mail address belongs to or some other title text | optional; default is the obfuscated e-mail address |
By padding the e-mail address with spaces you can define the alignment like with images.
The {{gravatar>...}} syntax is still supported, but not recommended.
Local Avatars
If you don't want to use the monsterid script or the gravatars from http://gravatar.org, you can upload your own avatars into the user namespace. For a user named foo this would be an image user:foo.jpg for example and the syntax:
{{gravatar>foo}}
The username has to be lowercase and follow the pagename naming rules. If unsure, you get your username for example the recent changes log etc.. Supported image types are jpg/png/gif.
Demo

Discussion
: When used with the Discussion plugin, username.jpg is not found, because _getAvatarURL($user, …) (and getXHTML) receives the user's EMAIL instead of its login name. :( Most likely the Discussion plugin is to be fixed.
Fixed in the discussion plugin as of 2008-08-08. — Michael Klier 2008/08/08 19:44
