A while back, I posted about implementing Favatars on this site. While I ran into many small issues, I was relatively happy with the feature. Since my upgrade to WP 1.5, I have wanted to re-implement the functionality without hacking WordPress. Luckily, Joen, with the help of Jeff Minard took the work I did (which was based on the work of Paul James) and turned the idea into a plugin which is now running on this site. The plugin was extremely simple to install and implement within my templates and is a great example of the maturity of WordPress and it community of users and developers.

Hi Alex – I made a speed boost to Favatars today; you can get it from my site. If you’ve been having trouble with the “favatise” function taking too long, then this ought to sort it out for you.
favatars 2.1
Thanks for the update! I’m not currently using Favatars, but am pondering a redesign that may use them down the road.
