I switched to FireFox from Google and now my avatar will not display when using Yahoo and blogs, i.e., the LA Times, my screen name appears but not my avatar.
I switched search engines from Google Chrome to FireFox and now my avatar no longer displays when I comment in blogs and there is no option in FireFox to add an avatar to one's personal profile. When I access the LA Times newspaper and log in and comment, my avatar appears with my comment but no longer.

Thank you.
Also note that your avatar is likely the result of being logged into a 3rd party social website, such as Google+, Facebook, Twitter, Gravatar, or similar. Web browsers (such as Chrome and Firefox) themselves do not maintain profile avatars.
