 * Hi there
 * I tried following this video tutorial ‘Design for wordpress’
 * I only just start using wordpress and learning how to design my own theme.
 * I have stumbled across a few errors and cant figure out why my gravatar is not
   working properly. By the way, I am using a virtual host ‘XAMPP’ for installing
   wordpress. I activated the gravatar plugin but it is not working.
 * Here is the error:
    Error
 *  Fatal error: Call to undefined function gravatar() in C:\Program Files\xampp\
   htdocs\wordpress\wp-content\themes\blank\comments.php on line 43
 * PHP file: comments.php
 *  <img src=”images/search.jpg” alt=”” style=”margin-top: -10px;” />
 *  <img src=”<?php gravatar(‘R’, 125, ‘images/gravatar.jpg’); ?>” alt=”Gravatar”
   class=”floatleft” />
 * Any suggestions what I’m doing wrong here?
 * Many thanks in advance
    CHEERS 🙂

 * There’s no such function/template tag as ‘gravatar()’ as far as I’m aware. Perhaps
   you meant [get_avatar()](http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Gravatars#Theme_Support_for_WordPress_2.5)?
