Ever wondered how to get your pretty picture to display inside forums, comment threads and blogs? Well, look no further!
A Gravatar, or globally recognized avatar, is quite simply an avatar image that follows you from weblog to weblog appearing beside your name when you comment on gravatar enabled sites. Avatars help identify your posts on web forums, so why not on weblogs? Signing up for a gravatar.com account is FREE, and all that’s required is your email address. Once you’ve signed up you can upload your avatar image and soon after you’ll start seeing it on gravatar enabled weblogs!
Speaking of web forums… have you seen ours? What are you waiting for? Head over to our forums now - ask a question, make a suggestion, draw a pretty picture of what your ideal phone would look like!
(No, seriously. I’ll put it on my refrigerator if that helps.)
So get going! Set up your Gravatar now and test it out!
This video from WMExperts showcasing the Sprint Touch Pro looks awesome, but is it really?
According to a forum thread over at XDA Developers, there are some major gripes about Sprint’s much hyped Touch Pro.
Biggest complaints?
- Not being able to change the text colour in TouchFLO 3D
- The keyboard backlight is permanently set to stay on for 7 seconds
- Problems with the stock IME not working
- Battery life - “2 hours on the phone, 10 minutes of surfing and a youtube video and I’m done…“
- D-pad is not as responsive as other HTC models
- Scroll function isn’t automatically enabled in many applications
So, readers - are any of you Sprint Touch Pro users having any issues? I’d love to hear about them. Let’s add to the list! (Or, hey, take away from it - I’d much rather hear that it’s worthwhile. I love the Touch Pro!)

That’s right, WinMoCool readers - we’ve got shiny new forums!
So click here to head on over to the forums and check them out! Feel free to post questions you might have concerning your device, a device you are interested in knowing more about or about our how-to’s, reviews, or news stories.
