What's the problem you're hoping this new feature will solve?

It's a pain to track down a profile image, and it slows down someone getting fully set up to use Keep Posted

Description of feature

Use the Gravatar api ( https://en.gravatar.com/ ) to check to see if there is an image associated with the user email address upon sign up. If found, consume it and add it to the user record.

Alternatives and workarounds

People just have to upload an image from their device.

Implemented and will be deployed this afternoon.

One place that feels like it could be improved on is there is no option to re-attach a gravatar image if a person removes it. I left it out so the settings would not get cluttered, but I can see that potentially being a helpful option. For now, I'd rather wait and hear feedback requesting it before doing anything further.
