For the Avatar from URL plugin, have you considered a tighter approach to parsing the hCard? Applied to http://singpolyma.net/ for example it pulls up other people's images, since they are tagged with class="photo fn" - ideally (for me anyway) this would only "catch" images inside hCards on OpenID enabled URLs. At the end of the day, you want the avatar fetched to be associated with the OpenID used - no some other image which happens to live at that URL, yes?

It does go on to the next check if no Gravatar is found. It always goes on if no results were found at any point :) That's the purpose of the plugin :) It currently looks for http://www.skippy.net/blog/2005/03/24/gravatars/ but I should add support for the "official" one that I just found out about.

II'd like to do something conditional - if Gravatar plug in is installed, but no gravatar is found for the user's email address, go on to the next check.

You are doing great dev work both for WordPress site owners as well as participation in the DiSo Project. I'm off to NYC tomorrow, and hopefully will have some spare time to install your latests plugs. If not, I'll definitely get to it over the weekend. Thanks! Looking real strong, Stephen.
