Of course, if you think Gravatar is a problem you can check here to see if it’s working. I rarely had problems with it, until just before the “Lazy G” started showing up, and found he was working on an upgrade when I decided to use the same avatar for everything.

I can’t get to the HaloScan site, so it may be some local problem beyond the comments server being down.

I often wish these guys would stop with the “improvements” and just give us a break for a year.

Ah. So it’s not just a problem from where I sit. I’d actually contribute money again to HaloScan if I thought it would help them, but I’m not at all sure that throwing more servers at the problem would cure what ails them.

I was about ready to turn off Gravatar in my HaloScan settings, but in the past few days Gravatar seems to have worked a bit better. At the moment, of course, it isn’t an issue.

Maybe it’s time for a snack and something to drink…
