Every user with a FishEye/Crucible account will have an avatar image displayed next to their name throughout the application. By default, each user will have a plain grey avatar image. Note, you cannot disable avatars.

You can configure whether to use FishEye/Crucible's own avatars or avatars from an external server (e.g.

http://www.gravatar.com/

To configure avatar settings:

1. 
2. Click 'Avatars' under the 'User Settings' section in the left menu. The 'Avatars' page will be displayed (see screenshot).
3. Choose the desired avatar configuration for your FishEye/Crucible instance:
   • 'Internal' — Choose this option if you want to use FishEye/Crucible's default avatars, "Charlitars" (Semi-unique avatars resembling charlie) or Joe Doe. We recommend this option if you are running FishEye/Crucible behind a firewall. Users will also be able to upload their own images to use as avatars via their user profile, (see Changing your User Profile). User-defined avatars will override default avatars.

   • 'External' — Choose this option if you want to use avatars hosted by an external server, (e.g.

     http://www.gravatar.com/

     ). Users will also be able to upload their own images to use as avatars via their user profile, (see Changing your User Profile). User-defined avatars will override avatars from an external server. Specify your avatar server, as follows:

     • 'Url' — Type the address of the external server, e.g.

       http://gravatar.com/avatar/

       . Use the same protocol that is used to access FishEye, e.g. if FishEye uses the secure HTTP protocol then you need to use 'https' when specifying your external server.
       If you are using the Gravatar service, we recommend that you use the following URL:

       https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/

     • 'Suffix' — (optional) Specify any parameters supported by the external server. For example, if you wish to control the type of images to be displayed, Gravatar accepts "r=g" ("rating=general"). The suffix must be in the form of a URL query string, starting with an ampersand, e.g. "&r=g"
4. Click 'Save changes' to save the avatar configuration.

注意

• If you want to use an external avatar server and are using a web server in front of FishEye, you will need to set your site URL and proxy host settings.
