Gravatar image ?

If I have validated my session via username/password is there a way to get the gravatar image link for the user?

Hi oncaphillis,
I can probably add this. Never thought about it until you mentioned it :D
I've created a ticket for this here.
Cheers.

Thanx.
Would be a nice reminder to users that they are currently logged in.

Just did a bit of searching on avatars which led me to a statement in the FAQ that indicated the site used Gravatar to fetch custom avatars for users that register for a free account. Looking at the date this issue was opened it is quite clear that it is currently in work, best case scenario, not a huge deal but I am looking forward to it, thanks to all

Hey guys,
This was pushed lived. We now return a new object called
avatar. For now, this only holds information for Gravatar, but could in the future also hold the info of a custom uploaded avatar on TMDb if we support it down the road.{ "avatar": { "gravatar": { "hash": "c9e9fc152ee756a900db85757c29815d" } }, ... }Cheers.
