User reviews
only works on sites that are not https
It works but I had to make one change for it to work on https sites.
Copy the extension directory to a new location.
Open the contentscript.js file in the new location and scroll to the bottom.
Change http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/ to https://www.gavatar.com/avatar/ and save the file.
Open the extensions page and select "Load Unpacked" and select the new extension location.
Would be helpful if it also provided a favicon for sites that provide a blank favicon.
